1 Introduction
Congratulations on choosing one of the top of the line Spa Power control systems by Davey Water
Products. This controller offers a large range of possible accessories, a user friendly touchpad and
superior components. It makes use of the latest electronics, display and sensor technology to provide
you with the most sophisticated controller in its class.
1.1 Basic Operation
The SP800 touch pad features a large display consisting of four numerical digits and two lines of text.
The display typically shows three quantities - Current pool temperature, Set (Target) pool temperature
and clock (weekday and time). By default the current pool temperature is displayed on the numerical digits
leaving the clock and set temperature on the two lines of text. This conguration may be changed by
the user if a different layout is preferred.
Whenever a touch pad button is pressed the two lines of text will temporarily describe the newly
selected state. Likewise when the controller is busy performing a task, text will be displayed to explain
what is happening (examples include sleeping, purging pumps and water priming). Each of these
messages and the associated function is described in the following sections.

1.3 LED Indicators
Auto (Non-24HR circ model) This LED is green when automatic control is enabled and off when
pump 1 is under manual control. In automatic “PUMP AUTO” pump 1 runs as required to heat the pool
and ensure minimum ltration times are met. If the indicator is blinking it means that the water sensor
is not detecting any water in the heater housing. If no water is being detected the LCD Display will also
show “WATER PRIMING, PLEASE WAIT”.
Water (24HR circ model) This LED is green when water is detected. If the indicator is blinking it
means that the water sensor is not detecting any water in the heater housing. If no water is being
detected the LCD Display will also show “WATER PRIMING, PLEASE WAIT”.
Auto Icon / Water Icon
Heater This LED shows when the heater is on. The heater will turn on and off as required whenever
the pump is running.
Heater Icon
Sleep This LED is on whenever the controller is within a designated sleep period. When the controller
is asleep the LED is green but the LED colour will change to orange if manually awoken.
During the sleep state the LCD Display will also show “SLEEPING, PRESS ANY KEY”.
Sleep Icon
Ozone This LED is green whenever the ozonator (if tted) is on. Pressing any touch pad button may
automatically turn off the ozonator (depending on installer conguration). If this occurs, the ozonator
will not switch back on until approximately 30 minutes after the last touch pad button press.

current setting. While viewing this display you may press the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the cy-
cle speed as required. Hold down either button for automatic key press repeat. At the maximum setting
of 100% the speed is approximately 40 times faster than the minimum setting of 2% and approximately
6 times faster than the default setting of 50%. The setting for each light effect is saved individually and
will be restored next time you select the given light effect mode.
Notes:
1. The UP and DOWN buttons are shared with Light Level, Light Mode, SPVSB speed and the menu
system. When not within the menu system the actual use of the UP and DOWN buttons depends
on which of the three function buttons was pressed last - Light Level, Light Mode or Air.
2. Pressing either Light Level or Light Mode buttons while the light is on will only cycle through the
available options when the LCD is displaying the current selection. This allows you to set the func-
tion of the UP and DOWN buttons and to view the current Light Level or Light Mode setting without
changing them.
3. Pressing Light Mode button when light is off will turn on the light using Light Level High.
4. By default the touch pad panel backlight will mirror the pool setting, but this feature may be
disabled. See section 7.8.7 on page 26

7 Menu Structure

18
7 Navigating The Menu System
The SP800 menu system provides a simple interface that allows you to view and modify most user options.
These options include set temperature, sleep times, ltration time and ltration period to name a few.
Throughout the entire menu system only three touch pad buttons are used - DOWN, SCROLL and UP.
Generally, while you are within the menu system the lower line of text on the LCD Display will show the
function of each of these buttons.
To access the main menu from the default display, press the SCROLL button. The LCD display will
change to show the Main Menu title. Each menu consists of a menu title and several menu items - menu
items are numbered whereas the menu title is not. If congured, a separate Stereo Control menu is also
available. To access the Main Menu press the UP button. To access the Stereo Controls Menu press the
down button. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to browse through the main menu.
If you do not press any touch pad buttons for over one minute while inside the menu system the display
will automatically return back to the default view, however you do not need to wait for this timeout period.
To quickly exit from the menu system, use the UP and DOWN buttons to select the current menu title and
press the SCROLL button. To exit from the Stereo Controls menu, press the SCROLL button repeatedly
until the EXIT option is shown. Press the UP button to exit.
Note that while viewing the menu title the LCD Display text above the SCROLL button shows “(ESC)”
to indicate that the function of the SCROLL button is to escape from the menu. The action taken by the
SCROLL button is dependent on which menu item is selected and this is reected by the LCD Display
text above the SCROLL button. In the Stereo Controls menu, the SCROLL button shows “next” to indicate
that the function of the SCROLL button is to cycle through the menu.
The menu system contains ve sub menus - User Alarms Menu, Sleep Times Menu, Maintenance Timers
Menu, Miscellaneous Options Menu and Advanced Options Menu. These sub menus are accessed via
main menu items 4 to 8 respectively. Simply select one of these items in the main menu and press the
SCROLL button. You will now be in the given sub menu. Browse sub menus just as you would the main
menu - the interface functions exactly the same. If congured, a Stereo Control sub menu is also avail-
able. This menu behaves differently to the others. The text above the UP, DOWN and SCROLL buttons
indicate their function.
To select any other item either within the main menu or any of the sub menus simply select the desired
menu item using the UP and DOWN buttons then press the SCROLL button.
7.1 Main Menu
The main menu is the top level of the menu system. It provides quick access to the set temperature
setting, user timer and clock. The ve sub menus are also accessed via main menu items 4 to 8.
To access the main menu from the default view, simply press the SCROLL button. Please read
“Navigating the menu system” section above if you have not already done so.

7.2 Set Temp (Temperature control)
Select MAIN menu then push UP button once
The SP800 automatically controls the main pump and heater to lter the water and maintain it at the
desired temperature set by the user. The user can leave the system to look after the spa and know it
will be at the correct temperature whenever he or she wants to use it.
While viewing the set temp menu item, the current set temperature is displayed on the four numerical
digits in degrees Celsius (default 37.00). The range of adjustment is 10.00 to 41.50 in steps of 0.25
degrees Celsius.
To change the setting press SCROLL while viewing the set temp menu item. The current setting will
ash indicating that the value may now be changed. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the set
temp as required. Hold down either button for automatic key press repeat. Press the SCROLL button
once the desired value is reached. The nal press of the SCROLL button will return you back to the
default view (out of the menu system) and the new setting will take effect immediately.
Note: The pool temperature will be maintained close to the set temperature, but how close depends
upon the “Heat Control” setting (see section 7.9.2 for more details).

7.3 User Timer
The user timer is a general-purpose countdown minute timer that can be preset to start at anywhere
between 1 and 99 minutes. You can set it when you get into the spa to have it remind you when it’s
time to get out.
The timer will count down the specied period and show minutes and seconds remaining on the LCD
Display as it does. A double beep is produced for each of the last 10 seconds, nishing with one long
beep and the message “USER TIMER FINISHED” when the timer is done.
To use the user timer, rst select it from the main menu. The total time will ash on the LCD (default 30
minutes). Use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the time as required. Hold down either button for
automatic key press repeat. Press the SCROLL button once the desired time is reached. This will set
the timer running and the message “TIMER STARTED (STOP)” will be displayed. While this message
is being displayed you may immediately stop the timer by pressing SCROLL again. Otherwise wait
approximately ve seconds for the message to disappear and you will be returned back to the default
view with the timer running in the background.
7.4 Clock
The SP800 contains a real time clock that will retain the correct time even during short power cuts. The
clock provides the user with a convenient way to tell the time and is also used to time sleep periods,
ltration timing and the user timers.
The clock can be congured to operate in either 12 or 24 hour mode. This setting will also determine
the way user alarms, sleep start and sleep stop times are displayed.
