    Robot control panel turns on. Robot itself doesn’t move at all under water most of the times I turn it on. Some (fewer) times works fine.

    NEW to VS pumps - How to calculate turnaround?

    I've set two timers, the main one at 1200 RPM from 9 am to 9 pm (12 hours), and then another one that kicks in the middle of it at noon for 2 hours of 2500 RPM for the suction cleaner.
