Operation of Buttons
Adjusting the Purifier Output %
Press the up/down arrow buttons to enter the Purifier Adjustment mode. Adjust the purifier output percentage to the desired
output, from 0% (off) to 100 % (maximum output), then Press SELECT or allow it to default back to the normal display.
Typically, once the initial setting is established, very little adjustment is needed. The purifier % setting refers to the amount of
time that the cell is energized within a 15-minute cycle. The system cycles on and off, as indicated on the display’s lower right
display as On, when generating chlorine. Higher settings will generate more chlorine. Follow the instructions on pg. 29 to
determine proper purifier % settings.
Ex: 50% setting = 50% of 15 minutes or 7.5 minutes ON and 7.5 minutes OFF. 25% setting = 3.75 min ON, 11.25 min OFF
Note: When operating in Total Control mode, Purifier Output is adjusted by changing the ORP set point. The Purifier Output
must be set on 0% when used with an external ORP controller.
Boost or Superboost
The Boost feature is used to increase the purifier % from its normal setting to 100% for a 24 hour or 72 hour cycle. When the
Boost cycle expires or is manually terminated the Purifier % returns to its previous setting and normal operation.
• Boost purifier output to 100% for 24 hours. From the normal operation, press and release the BOOST button. The
display will flash “Boost 24 hour ON” then “Boost Mode”.
• Boost purifier output to 100% for 72 hours. From the normal operation, press and hold the Boost button until “Boost
72 hour ON” is displayed, then release the Boost button. The display will show “Boost” for approximately 8 seconds,
after that “Boost 72 hour ON” will display, then when Boost is released, “Superboost Mode” is displayed until
completed.
When Boost is activated with an external time clock, the time remaining for the boost cycle is held in memory and Boost will
continue when the pump restarts, until the 24 or 72 hrs are expired.
With the One-Speed Pump setting programmed, the pump time clock will be overridden and run c ontinuously, produc ing purifier
until the end of the boost cycle. Two-Speed Pump setting will activate 100% boost for 24 or 72 hrs.
To exit Boost or Superboost mode and revert to normal operation:
• Allow the Boost or Superboost cycle to expire.
• Press BOOST at anytime to manually deactivate Boost or Superboost.
(
The Boost button is not active when the Pool Pilot Digital is programmed to be controlled by an Electronic Controller.)
