This is the opposite of what everyone else normally asks about how to turn off the delay. I want to create a delay (the same as the pool cleaner delay) before the heater turns on in the intellitouch/screenlogic software.
After 2 years of monitoring the heater behavior (Mastertemp 400) as we keep the pool open all year (in Washington DC), we seem to have found an odd scenario when the Intelliflo pump seems to cycle and do its priming during the night. While the pump is priming, the heater continues trying to run and then experiences a water flow issue (the flow varies and is lower during the pump priming cycle) and goes into Service Heater error mode and stops heating.
The obvious solution would be to make the heater only turn on after the pump has been running for 5 mins. I am concerned to config the heater as a "Master Cleaner" which if I understand from the Screenlogic manual gives you a delay as it also then controls other things? I could also increase the flow during the priming, however, priming by its nature, does not appear to be an "all or nothing" and so the pressure does vary for a few minutes as this happens.
All comments and solutions are appreciated. Thanks
