Ok, so I am learning more about my system every day. I have the hayward prologic system with the p4 remote. I am a little confused.
The other day I went into my diagnostic menu and located the salinity option. It said 0000 press + to save. So I did and my reading went from 2900 to 0000. So I went online and learned that when the chlorine reaches its desired precentage and shuts itself down, I cant get a reading. One post suggested that you up you chlorine % to force the cell to turn on then you can do another test.
Once I did that, about 30 min later it gave me a press to check salt, then a countdown from 15 seconds to 0, then the salt number began to climb from 100 200.... back to 2900.
So my question is, how can I make the unit do this without having to increase my salinity % to trick it? Is there an actual way to test salinity on a regular basis for up to date factual readings? Or do I need to manually test for this. Also it has said 2900 all week but with all the rain that we have had I am positive that the number should be less, so does the system do an auto check and adjust on its own, or is the 2900 just saved from the last time that I saved that level?
Does this make sense? I sure hope so
