(FACTORY SETTING)

Descriptions:

Acid Feed:

DIP Switch 1 (up) will turn on the chemical feeder when the "High" LED side is on.

OR

Base Feed:

DIP Switch 1 (down) will turn on the chemical feeder when the "Low" LED side is on.

Overfeed:

The unit will enter overfeed mode when the feed time has exceeded the setting of DIP

Switch 2. When in overfeed mode, the Low, Neutral, and High LED’s will flash.

Proportional: DIP Switch 4 will set a variable time length calculated to turn the chemical feeders on

and off so that the pH level does not overshoot.

Cycle Time:

Use DIP Switch 5 to have a one (1) minute cycle time (up) or a three (3) minute cycle

time. The On Time + Off Time = Cycle Time.

On time:

Dip Switch 6 determines whether the chemical feeder can be on for 5% of the On Time or

whether it is 20% of the On Time (This can help the unit from overfeeding on small bodies of

water or spas).

FINISHING AND TESTING

Once the controller system has been installed with applicable sensors and modules, allow the Smart pH system

to acclimate to the body of water for 24 hours.

1. After all wire connections are complete, close the panel and tighten the enclosure screws.

2. Turn on the main breaker and turn on the Smart pH.

3. Verify that the controller is active and that LED’s are working.

OPERATIONS

SMART PH

TM

BASIC OPERATION

When the pH level is .2 or greater above the set point the HIGH LED will be on.

When the pH level is .2 or greater below the set point the LOW LED will be on

When the pH level is .05 to .2 above the set point the HIGH LED and the BALANCED LED will be on.

When the pH level is between +/- .05 from the set point the BALANCED LED will be on.

When the pH level is .05 to .2 below the set point the LOW LED and BALANCED LED will be on.
