Pump DISPLAY NOT ACTIVE lockup

[FLAKPA]

I've been running my Pentair Variable Speed pump with the settings the installers put in it about 6 months ago. Seems to work fine. We have had a pretty nice clean pool. I've used this site, test regularly and enjoying our remodeled pool.

I went out today to look at the clean cycle time settings and found the pump "locked" with "Display not Active!" on the LED screen. No buttons work, not any. I have to power off by flipping the breaker, waiting at least one minute, and I get the pump menus back. However, once running for any length of time the system locks back up.

I read over the manual, at least I think I did, and have not found an answer to this issue.

Am I missing something? IS there a sequence of button pushes to press to unlock this pump? Should I be calling a pool technician?

THANK YOU for any help.

Robert

I'd call pentair in the morning they've been very helpful in my setting up my new IntelliFlo!!!

Called Pentair. Great Service and help BTW! Boy do I feel foolish. Turns out I also have a Pentair Solar Touch installed to control the solar panels. It takes over the operation of the pump and displays the message I noted in my original post. Simply power down the Solar Touch and i get the menus for the pump back up.

Thanks for the advice timerguy. It was great advice.

Cheers,

Robert
