temperature of the water as it enters the heater has
a MENU button, up and down adjustment buttons,
and an LED display. The desired water temperature
(set point) is controllable between 40°F and 104°F
(5°C and 40°C). The set point may differ from the
actual water temperature at the pool or spa due to
heat loss in the piping.

MENU:
The MENU button cycles through the three menu
items: Measured Water Temperature (default), SET
POINT and °F/°C.

ADJUSTING THE SET POINT:
Press one of the following buttons; MENU,

The display will momentarily blank and then the
current set point will be displayed. Press the

or

button to change the set point. Hold the button

down for rapid temperature changes.

The set point will be saved and the display will return
to the measured temperature after two seconds of
inactivity.

OPERATION:
In the measured temperature mode, the water
temperature in the heater is displayed. The LED
corresponding to the current temperature scale will
be illuminated. If the heater is calling for heat the
HEATING LED will be illuminated.

FAHRENHEIT TO CELCIUS:
Press the MENU button twice and the current
temperature scale will be displayed ( F or C ). Press

seconds of inactivity.

ERROR CODE:
The display will read “Err” when it detects a
problem with the temperature sensor. This can be
caused by a faulty sensor or a loose connection
between the sensor and the temperature
controller.
