OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS tild VP v2.0EN
7. Operating principles
7.1. 3-position switches
On the side of the tild VP control box, there are 3-position switches. For each function (filtration, auxiliary, lighting), these
are used to select automatic or manual operation:
• On the "tild" position: Automatic: The function is controlled by the tild module,
• In the middle position "Off / 0": the function in question is off,
• On the "Manu" position: Forced operation (permanent activation) of the function in question.
To be able to control the functions using the application and its programming, set the switches
to the "tild" position.
7.2. Filtering and heat regulation management
The tild VP control box can be used to manage your pool filtering pump depending on the water temperature.
The filtration can be operated manually, programmed, or the appliance can be left to calculate the ideal filtration time every
day. In heat-regulated mode, the appliance will use the entered programmed time slots and adapt each one proportionally to the
temperature. The higher the temperature, the more the time increases and vice versa.
In other words, in “Programmed” mode, you define your filtering times as if the water were at 25°C. At that temperature, the
filtering should usually run for 11 to 13h (possibly spread over several running periods). Next, when heat regulation mode is
activated, the tild VP automatically adjusts the filtering to the water temperature.
If you find that the calculated filtration time is too low, increase the base programming. On the other hand, if you find that the
calculated filtration time is too long, reduce the base programming.
Be careful when switching to heat regulated mode. Incorrect settings (too short base filtering
time slots for example) could lead to insufficient filtering during the season. We recommend
you ask a professional for advice.
7.3. Anti-freeze monitoring
The tild VP control box has a built-in anti-freeze system which needs to be enabled and configured. Its threshold can be set
between 0 and +2°C.
• Below this threshold (If T° < Freezing T°), filtering will be regularly started (10 minutes every 30 minutes) to prevent the
water from having time to freeze by making it flow.
• This freeze protection mode stops as soon as the pool temperature exceeds the set threshold (as soon as T° > freezing T° + 1).
• If the pool temperature drops below 0°C, the pump runs continuously.
The freezing protection monitoring is not active if the "Filtration" switch is in the "Off / 0" position or if the pump's
circuit breaker is in the bottom position.
Below 12°C, the control box starts pro-active monitoring by running the filtering 30 minutes every 4 hours to renew the water
in the piping.
7.4. Programming
For each of the functions controlled by the tildVP, the application can be used to create two different programmes and to choose
on which day(s) they will be activated. For example, different programming times can be defined for weekends and weekdays.
