Transformer output is the blue and white wires on the right side, Did you test that?

That is the result of complaining on a web site.

Give the system 24 hours without touching any buttons and see if it begins cycling according to the schedules.

The customer should let Pentair know of his/her dissatisfaction with the control system.

Why is it insane that the controls determine the cell performance is unacceptable? Would you like it to keep running when it is not producing the expected levels?

Do you have the circuits like I discussed? Are other circuits than the P running? It can take the EasyTouch a 24 hour cycle to get changed schedules in synch. And if you manually turn P on or off it disrupts the schedule cycle for 24 hours.

Make sure all your pool PVC parts are Schedule 40 and not DWV. https://www.troublefreepool.com/wiki/index.php?title=PVC_Repair#DWV_.28Drain.2C_Waste.2C_Vent.29

Yes, higher pump speed always wins when multiple circuits are running.

Cap it off with removable plugs at both ends so you can clean it out if it gets water and algae in it. Or you can make it a fountain like this and turn it on when kids want to play in it.

I don't know what is "insane" about an electrolysis system starting up and monitoring the voltage and amperage as the chemical process stabilizes to see if it is within expected performance. If not, the control unit shuts it down and notifies you.

I don't know your pump. Is there a data plate on it?

You have to go the other way. The default Pool circuit RPM must be the lowest you want. Set the Pool circuit to 2200 RPM and schedule POOL to run 10 AM to 5 PM. Then Setup a Feature Circuit called Pool High and set it to 3000 RPM. Schedule Pool High Circuit for 10 AM to Noon.

You mean this Jandy valve? It has nothing to do with your heater. The valve selects between two return lines. As set most water is going down pipe A and maybe 20% is going down pipe B. I would clean away all the dried leaves from around the heater and pipes and pool equipment.

I would add 10 ppm of liquid chlorine to the water and test your FC level after it circulates for 30 minutes. Report what Fc level you get. You may have Ammonia - Further Reading
