Hello all,

Been missing from the forum for some time. Things seem to be working well for the past 4 years after I fired our pool company.
I came home from dinner tonight to find my Pentair pump running, outside of the program time limits. (tried to catch up with it to no avail). I switched the controller (Jandy RS8) to the service position and it does indeed turn the pump on and off.

About a week ago, I reprogrammed the filter pump and cleaner pump to an hour later, to try and preserve drain on the grid.

Please inform me what I should do to see if I can reset the system.

I don't know anything about Jandy controllers, but I once changed a schedule on my Pentair controller and had a similar problem. Turned out to be an a.m./p.m. thing -- I hadn't paid close enough attention when I was setting the new times, so the schedule was running 12 hours longer than I wanted.

Any chance that you might have made the same error?

ARS,

I too know nothing about the Jandy system, but assume you are using the RS-485 com cable to control the IntelliFlo.

If so, it is not going to run unless your automation is telling it to run. The fact that you changed a schedule just before this happened is a clue. :mrgreen:

Show us your current schedules.

Thanks,

Jim R.
