4. DIGITAL TOUCHSCREEN CONTROLLER OVERVIEW
The Touchscreen digital controller has been pre-programmed with all the necessary parameters to ensure
reliable service & operation. Below is an overview indicating the controller button keys and graphical
symbols.
5. OPERATING INSTRUCTION
On initial power up of the controller the digital display will be illuminated.
The chilling device will only be switched ‘On’ when the following criteria are met i.e.:
•Water circulating pump is ‘On’ delivering in excess of 4,000 litres per hour (4m³/h)
•The required temperature is set to a lower value than the actual water temperature

8
The digital display will show ‘NORMAL’ and the
graphical red coloured thermometer will be
‘Animated’ whenever the chiller is switched ‘ON’.
The actual pool water temperature is shown in the upper area of the display. The required temperature is
shown in the lower area of the display. The required water temperature can be adjusted by touching the
‘UP / DOWN’ touch button keys until the required temperature is displayed, adjustments are in 0.1°C
increments.
Time Switching Delay
To prevent overheating of the switch components within the cooling device caused by frequent on/ off
switching (cycling) the controller has been pre-programmed with a time delay function.
When time switching delay is activated the message display will show ‘CHILLER DELAY’ for 2 minutes.
Differential
When the water has reached the required temperature the chiller will switch off and will not switch
back on until the water temperature has fallen 0.6°C below the required temperature.
Operating Modes
There are five operating modes:
Normal
Timer
Priority
Installation
Standby
The required Modes are selected by touching the
‘M’ button key, each touch causes the mode to
change to the next mode. The display will indicate
which mode is currently selected together with the
clock time.

1 OFF’ will be displayed, touch the ‘UP’ / ‘DOWN’ button keys to set the required time, touch the ‘O.K’
button key to save the required time, the display will then show
‘TIMER 2’ repeat the same procedure for all four ‘ON’ / ‘OFF’ timer settings, select ‘EXIT’.If any Timers
are not required set the ‘ON / OFF’ times the same.
The timer mode allows you to set up 4 on and off time periods when you would like cooling to
take place. These can be set to take advantage of off-peak energy tariffs, or to ensure your pool
is at the required temperature during specific time periods.
Note: The time clock will only control the cooling time periods and not the filtration pump cycles.

6.7 FACTORY Setup
This category has restricted access.
7. OPERATING MODES
7.1 Standby Operating Mode
When in Standby mode the controller will display the text ‘STANDBY’, Clock time and the Standby button
key (as below).
When in this mode the internal clock continues to run but there is no other functionality apart from the
Standby button key.

14
7.2 Normal Operating Mode
Under normal conditions when the controller is connected and ‘On’ and flow has been detected by the flow
switch the controller display will be as shown below indicating the following information:
1. ‘Normal’ and ‘Time’
2. Actual water temperature
3. Required temperature
4. If the Flow switch does not detect sufficient flow the message ‘NO FLOW’ will be shown on
the Display.
7.3 Timer Mode
To activate the Timer mode, touch the ‘M’ button key until the ‘TIMER’ symbol is displayed (see
below)

15
In this mode the controller will only heat during a timed-on period and when receiving sufficient flow.
If no or insufficient flow is being received no cooling will take place. When in a timed off period no cooling
will take place.
In this mode the controller will heat whenever it is receiving flow during a timed-on period.
8. TROUBLE SHOOTING
Chilling Device will not switch on
In most cases this will be the result of one of the following not being met:
Possible Cause 1. The required temperature has been reached.
To confirm the controller is requesting the chilling device to switch on check that the
required temperature is at least 0.6⁰C greater than the current water temperature
and that the red thermometer in the display is ‘animated’ showing the thermometer
increasing.
Possible Cause 2. Insufficient Flow.
The display will show ‘NO FLOW’ if the flow switch has detected that the flow
volume is below 4,000-litres per hour (4m³/h).
Check that the flow volume is greater than 4,000-litres per hour and that the flow
switch is in the correct orientation to sense flow (i.e. check that the arrow moulded
into the flow switch body is facing in the same direction as the flow travelling through
the T-Piece).
Possible Cause 3. The controller is in a timed off period.
Check if the controller has the ‘TIMER’ symbol displayed –if it does check your
clock and time period settings (explained in the set-up section).
Possible Cause 4. The chiller output has not been correctly connected to the control circuit of your
chilling device.
Check the wiring diagram for verification on how the controller should be connected
to the chilling device and seek the expertise of a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
Possible Cause 5. The controller is in time delay mode.
If the display is showing ‘CHILLER DELAY’ the controller is in time delay mode.
This is activated if the controller is requesting the chilling device to switch on more
than once in a 2-minute period –this can be caused by a fluctuating flow rate (just
above and then just below the 4,000-litre per hour requirement) or fluctuations in
water temperature.
To rectify check the plumbing for any restrictions to flow and increase the flow
volume. Also check the positioning of the temperature sensor, it should be
positioned on the entry port of the heat exchanger.
