1 Introduction
The VGreen® 165 is a premium e󰀩 ciency variable speed motor that
provides tremendous program  exibility in terms of motor speed
and time settings. The variable speed VGreen 165 is intended to
enable running at the lowest speeds needed to maintain a sanitary
environment, which in turn minimizes energy consumption. Pool size,
the presence of additional water features, chemicals used to maintain
sanitary conditions, and environmental factors will impact optimal
programming necessary to maximize energy conservation.
The integrated electronics interface controls the speed settings as
well as the run durations. The VGreen 165 can run at speeds ranging
between 600 and 3450 RPM and is rated for 208-230 Vrms at an input
frequency of 60 Hz.

4 Overview
Program customization may require some trial-and-error to determine
the most satisfactory settings as dictated by the conditions. In all cases,
setting the VGreen 165 at the lowest speed for the longest duration is
the best strategy to minimize energy consumption. However, conditions
may require running the VGreen 165 at a higher speed for some dura-
tion of time each day to maintain proper  ltration to achieve satisfactory
sanitation.
The User Interface is located on top of the VGreen 165 . To the right of
the STEP buttons is the OVERRIDE button. This button can be used
to operate the VGreen 165 at speeds outside of the normal operating
schedule.

Schedule Tables
Use the tables below to record a personalized operating schedule.
Recording the planned schedule in the table below will make the pro-
gramming process easier and will help the user remember the custom
settings in case of inadvertent loss of schedule. The user interface will
not allow the user to program an overlap between di󰀨erent STEPs of the
schedule. The STEP currently being set will always take priority over
any previous settings. In the event a user attempts to program with a
combined duration greater than 24 hours, the current STEP setting will
be retained whereas the other two STEP settings will be cleared to zero
hours requiring the user to reset them. Prior to beginning the actual
programming process, it is advisable for the user to review the planned
schedule as outlined in chart form to ensure the cumulative duration is
not greater than 24 hours and no overlaps exist. It is always a good idea
to double check your programmed settings for accuracy once you have
completed the programming process.

6.4 Running VGreen 165 from Keypad
1. Press the START key and the VGreen 165 will run the programmed
24 hour duration schedule. The START event will be stored in the
controller. Should a power outage occur, the VGreen 165 will
automatically re-start at STEP 1 when power is restored.
2. The VGreen 165 will always run the PRIMING sequence when it
starts from the OFF state, including when it automatically restarts
following a power outage. The default Prime setting is dened in the
“Priming” section of this document.
3. The VGreen 165 then starts running in STEP 1 at the programmed
DURATION and SPEED. The “ACTIVE LED” for STEP 1 will turn
ON. The DURATION and SPEED setting LEDs along with the re-
spective bar graph LED will blink back and forth every three (3)
seconds.
If power is connected to the VGreen 165 motor, pressing any of the following buttons
referred to in this section 6.4 could result in the motor starting. Failure to recognize this
could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
10019878-001-001 _V-Green165 UM_7-30-19.indd 17 8/5/2019 4:26:59 PM

16
4. This sequence will then repeat for STEP 2 and then STEP 3 with-
out the VGreen 165 stopping.
5. At the end of STEP 3, the VGreen 165 will wait if necessary for the
completion of the 24-hour schedule. During this waiting period (if
applicable), all of the “active step LEDs” will remain OFF. However,
the START LED will still be illuminated. After completion of the 24
hour schedule, the system restarts at STEP 1 and this cycle will
repeat indenitely until the user presses the STOP key.
NOTE: Pressing a STEP key other than for the STEP currently running
will cause an immediate transition to the newly selected STEP. The
VGreen 165 will continue with the programmed schedule from that point
forward.
NOTE: If STOP is pressed during normal schedule operation, the 24
hour schedule will stop. When START is pressed again, the 24 hour
schedule will start from STEP 1.
NOTE: If power is lost while the VGreen 165 is running a 24 hour sched-
ule, upon restoration of power the VGreen 165 will start the 24 hour
schedule from STEP 1.
NOTE: If a digital input (provided from an external source) is detected,
the VGreen 165 will start running on the STEP 1, STEP 2, STEP 3, or
OVERRIDE speed corresponding to the digital input. Upon removing
the digital input (provided from an external source), the VGreen 165 will
stop and the user will need to press START to begin the 24 hour sched-
ule operation. However, if START was already pressed prior to receiv-
ing a digital input, then the VGreen 165 will resume running the 24 hour
schedule once the digital input is removed.
NOTE: Pressing STOP at any time turns the VGreen 165 OFF and
clears the start time for the 24 hour schedule.
10019878-001-001 _V-Green165 UM_7-30-19.indd 18 8/5/2019 4:26:59 PM

6.5 OVERRIDE
The VGreen 165 is equipped with an OVERRIDE feature, which can be
engaged to temporarily run at higher or lower speeds ranging between
600 to 3450 RPM. Once the OVERRIDE duration has elapsed, the
VGreen 165 will automatically return to the programmed schedule.
1. Pressing the OVERRIDE key while the VGreen 165 is running will
cause the VGreen 165 to start running in the OVERRIDE mode
at the programmed DURATION and SPEED. The “active LED” for
OVERRIDE will illuminate. The DURATION and SPEED setting
LEDs along with its respective bar graph LED will blink back and
forth at three (3) second intervals.
2. The UP (+) / DOWN (-) arrows allow the user to congure OVER
RIDE DURATION and SPEED. These settings can be changed
while the VGreen 165 is running. These settings are stored each
time the UP (+) / DOWN (-) arrows are pressed.
NOTE: When the OVERRIDE duration ends, the VGreen 165 resumes
the 24 hour schedule at the point in the currently programmed 24 hour
schedule where it normally would be running at that time. The OVER-
RIDE duration will not a󰀨ect the start or stop times of the 24 hour sched-
ule. For example, if OVERRIDE runs during a period overlapping with a
later part of STEP 1 and an early part of STEP 2, the start time of STEP
3 is not a󰀨ected.

10019878-001-001 _V-Green165 UM_7-30-19.indd 19 8/5/2019 4:26:59 PM

18
NOTE: Pressing/Holding OVERRIDE key for more than three (3)
seconds will cancel OVERRIDE mode.
NOTE: During the OVERRIDE mode, the VGreen 165 will not start with
the priming sequence.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not set the OVERRIDE duration
to 0 HRS. Setting the OVERRIDE duration to 0 HRS will not allow you
to change the duration setting while the motor is running. The motor will
have to be stopped in order to change the OVERRIDE settings if the
duration is set to 0 HRS.
6.6 Schedule Advance
The Schedule Advance mode allows the user to press the START button
at one time of the day, with the 24-hour schedule starting at a di󰀨erent
time of day. The VGreen 165 can run in the Schedule Advance mode
(by using the OVERRIDE button) and upon completion will begin the
programmed 24 hour schedule at STEP 1 DURATION and SPEED.
The following steps should be followed to set Schedule Advance mode:
1. With the VGreen 165 stopped,
press and hold the START key for
more than three (3) seconds. The
START LED will blink at a rate of one
second per pulse. The DURATION
setting LED and respective bar graph
LED will remain turned ON until the
Schedule Advance mode is complete.
Do not perform any maintenance on the motor while the motor is in Schedule Advance
Mode. The motor may start without warning. This event could cause death or serious
personal injury.
