    New SWG - salinity fluctuation

    Hi All, Hope everyone is doing well through COVID-19. I just opened my pool and converted to salt. I have a Circupool RJ45 +. I balance my water before adding the salt and then dumbed 14 bags (560 lbs) into the pool. I waited 24 hours and then turned the SWG on. My initial reading was 3500...

    Wiring Salt Water Generator

    Thank you @Jimrahbe and @wireform. All that said would it be best to avoid any issues around run time to then stop using the onboard VSP timer and just use my existing timer, and hook up my SWG to the same timer my VSP is on? Thanks Howie

    Wiring a SWCG with a VSP

    Hi mknauss, I have a similar question around this as I have a VS pump and use the onboard scheduler instead of the timer I had before I got the VSP. I am about to get a SWG and was wonder if I could wire directly into the VSP? Thanks.
