Thanks, Jeff. Yes, for sure they designed it to turn off when the spa or spillway is turned on. That makes sense, since the system doesn't know where you plumped the cleaner pump intake. However, when my scheduled Spillway program finishes running, the system reverts back to running Pool (same...

Unfortunately for me, that might not be the worst case. When we went to 2.006 and started having problems, we had pumps drop completely when reverting to 1.064.

I haven't, and wouldn't be surprised at all if that worked. I will probably give it a shot. I'm just trying to find out if this is a known issue with the master cleaner and if it's considered a bug. It would be a piece of the puzzle in deciding whether to upgrade to 2.017, or stick with 1.064...

while you may be right about overlapping schedules (although I have several others without any problems), that doesn't seem to be the cause here. I can manually start the cleaner, then manually start the spillway, and when I turn off the spillway, the cleaner does not turn back on, even though...

Question for any master Intellicenter gurus: Why does the cleaner not come back on after the spillway runs in an overlapping schedule? Here's the schedule scenario: Pool: 12pm - 6pm Cleaner: 1pm-6pm Spillway: 2pm-3pm Pool turns on at noon; Cleaner turns on at 1pm and turns off at 2pm while...

Nevermind! Solved. I updated my admin password from the default, and next time I looked Chemistry history was showing. Not sure if the two are connected, but my issue has gone away. Now, if someone could tell me how to delete a post! Anyone else not able to see Chemistry History on the...

Thanks everyone. Nesting the schedule took care of it, and I also now have a better understanding how my panel is wired. Jim, in my case it's wired differently than yours. The relay in the upper LEFT corner (when facing the panel) is the pool/spa/spillway relay, to which they've also wired...

The installer just did what I asked, which was to have a way to run the pool at a different speed. Unfortunately, I cannot stand the equipment/service company owner and don't want to ask him questions. But the installer is actually pretty good. I just don't have access to him. I can see that...

I had the equipment installers add a "pool high" feature circuit so we can have 2 schedules with different pump speeds ("pool" and "pool high"). When we run "pool high", it is not triggering the relay that provides power to intellichem, which is wired to the top left relay (we have the 10-relay...

Sorry, slight misnomer in the subject, as we have not yet added salt and are currently "fresh". We are just past start up (in second month), but have not added salt because we need to drain 1/3 of the water soon to do a small repair, so we did not want to have to correct the salt twice. But we...

They dont say it specifically. As I said, it's kind of ambiguous. The start up page says: "After the 4th day, the Calcium Hardness level should be adjusted slowly over the 28 day period not to exceed 200 PPM." There's nothing specifically saying to raise it afterward. But maybe that's just...

Appreciate the replies, but I'm not really worried about start up. For sure, we'll be following guidelines for the next couple weeks. It's after startup that I'm wondering about, where it seems like Pebble Plus is saying keep it under 200, but Pool Math suggests a much higher level.

To me, the Pebble Plus start up page makes it sound like I should keep it under 200 going forward, but it's a little ambiguous...

Just recently filled a new pool with water and am kind of looking over the shoulder of the start up company. Was checking calcium hardness with the TF-Pro test kit, and came out to 150. Pebble Plus start up says 150 is good (Start Up | Pebble Plus), and to keep it under 200. Went to enter...

Thanks for the info. The installer working for my PB is adamant that "the only problems I've had with ETI heaters is when there's a bypass". I can't generate a good argument to the contrary, so letting him plumb without a bypass.
