Connecting a Pentair Superflow VST pump to my Easytouch

Tim,

Set up a Feature Circuit and name it whatever you want.. Say "cleaner".. The Circuit Name will not make it do anything, it is just a name that you can remember.. Do NOT change the Circuit Function which should be Generic..

Then go to the same page you assigned the Pool Circuit to 2200 and assign your new "Cleaner" Circuit to 3000.

Then Schedule Cleaner to run the hours you want.. The pump will speed up at 10 am and drop back at noon.

You can do more speeds if you want.. Just make sure the Pool Circuit is on all the time that you want the pump to run that day..

Each "Circuit" can only have one speed.. That is why Pool is your lowest speed and then you have to keep adding additional speeds using the Feature Circuits.

If you run into any other questions, just ask...

Thanks,

Jim R.

After using most of yesterday in taking a deep dive into the EasyTouch manual I thought I had most of the EasyTouch user interface figured out but I still need some help.
I want the pump to come on in the morning at 10 am at 3000 rpm until 1201 pm and then run at 2200 until it turns off at 5pm.
So I assigned Feature 1 which is Circuit 10 to “Pool Low”, this will be the 2200 rpm.
Menu>Setting>Intelliflo>Pump #1>Pump Speeds:
Pool Circuit 3000rpm
Spa Circuit 3000rpm
Pool Low Circuit 2200
Freeze Circuit 1200
No other circuits assigned a rpm.

Schedules:
Spa 0
Pool 1 then under its schedule Mode: Schedule 10 am to 5 pm every day
Pool Light 1 then under its schedule: Mode: Schedule 8 pm to 1045 pm every day.
Not Used 0
Aux 3-7 0
Pool Low: then under its schedule: Mode: Schedule 12:01 pm to 5pm every day.
Feature 2-8 0
Aux Extra 0

This seems to be working but can’t tell for sure until I observe the schedules tomorrow.

HOWEVER: The pump is currently running at 3000 rpm and the panel shows a pool temp of 80. If I press the P button on the interior wired remote or the Filter button on the EasyTouch CB panel the pump goes to the Pump Low rpm = 2200 and the SWG goes off. The display no longer shows the pool temp indicating the pump is off. If I press the P button again the pump goes on in the 3000 rpm mode and the pool temp shows again. Right now I can’t turn the pool pump off and strangely when it goes to low rpm by pressing the P button the SWG goes off. Help!

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