Thank you. It will help.

As I mentioned "turn on 30 min prior to all testing" is ambiguous. It could mean "the entire ONCL Test procedure", which includes the two chemical tests and an overnight period ... with the pump on and the SWG off. Normally, I have the pump off from 4:30pm to 7pm during dinner and evening for...

Yes, but with maple tree helicopter droppings going on constantly, I would have to get up every 2 hrs during the night to empty the skimmer :). That's mainly why I was looking for clarification.

On this page, which was last edited in June, can you please add some guidance on overnight filter operation? It isn't clearly stated here, yet it is implied if you are SLAMming because that process expects continuous operation. If I am only using the OCLT to detect if there is a problem in the...

Yeah ... I have 6 gallons... probably enough for me and my neighbor to close our pools this year. Thanks for the link to review.

Thanks everyone for your input. The pool cleared up by August 15 and then, since it was cooler here in Buffalo, took another 10 days or so to get the FC down from 24 ppm to 12 ppm. While that was happening I repaired my SWG and got that running again through the calibration, etc. Ran the T-5...

Success. I chose to remove/replace the thermistor instead of snipping off and soldering to the existing leads. I made sure to have a soldering iron with enough power to heat and melt the existing solder in the larger heat-sinking pads. I bought a soldering kit ... but found that the provided...

Well, the Hayward diagnostic guide also said to test the transform output blue/white and grey/violet pairs for resistance... and, unless I'm doing that wrong, they were both 0 instead of the 2-3 ohms expected ... so it could [also] be a transformer. TBD. Thermistor first.
