IIRC about 6 or 7 years.

Been having it a while. Noticed today it doesn't want to move. Inspected it and came to the conclusion the drive system is shot. Main drive wheel hubs are nearly gone. Scrubbing roller is sloppy. Gears will not catch as they should. Is it worth fixing if I have to buy all new drive parts and...

Here is a pic while it is connected directly to my PC. That light indicates ethernet is connected. Other light is off because I cannot directly communicate to the PA. Taking that same cable and removing it from PC and connect directly to ATT modem, right next to it, that light does not come on...

The 2 little light next to the ethernet port on the PA.

New router will be here tomorrow. I did have to change the IP range and DNS on the previously meshed router that I tried for now. I do recall ip range being 192.168.1. So I did set that up. Still nothing firmware is 5.2.738 The thing that stumps me is the lights indicating ethernet connection...

Read a ton of posts but nothing really mentioned my issues. Over last weekend we had a lightning strike that fried my main router. The SL PA was on a meshed router opposite exterior wall where panel is. Everything worked fine until that day. So I could run my wifi items on the mesh routers side...

That makes sense in the event it was on a schedule. If I turn it on, then it could. Either way, the pump could start up 1st to get water flowing, then have heater start up "IF" water temp is below set temp. Likely would only need a bit of programming.

Looks like the upgrade panel would cost about $1k.

To be fair, I didn't know the difference between ET and IC at the time. I never had a system like this. Guess I should have done a bit more research on what equipment I was getting. Came from a Hayward SWG and single speed pump system on Intermatic timer. Well, even moving SWG, the system will...

Here is how my panel is wired. Yes pump/IC is on Aux2, but behind mb the connections are swapped with 1 & 2. And, @ajw22 , as you can see, I do not have GFCI CB on pump or heater. Not sure why they didn't add that. I will look into adding those 2 GFCI breakers. OAN, I see the heater is not on...

Yes. I have. User manual says 40gpm min. I have my pump set just above that. So at this time, if pump/IC circuit is on, I can turn on heater and rpm on pump will slow to the specified gpm output. I find that the slower I pump water the better it is heated. Faster flow and water doesn't heat as...

I appreciate all the info and advice.

I may be missing something in the SLconfig, but everything I have tried, will not allow heater to trigger pump circuit. Matter of fact, if pump circuit isn't on, heater is completely off. Am I missing something?

That I understand from a safety standpoint. However, if nothing is running and I decide to turn on heater, why can't it tell the system, "Hey look heater is on, let's turn the pump on" Whether I turn it on manually via feature or have it on a set schedule. I did set a feature to run pump at...

Will look at that GFCI info and change out. Just have to double check to make sure I don't have one. I'm pretty sure I do not. Only one I recall having one is light transformer CB. Well, it started as a heater issue. Heater will not come on UNLESS pool circuit is on. I have my IC scheduled to...

So I tie a jumper directly into the "load line" for the pump relay. Not #2 side as it is now. That was the only way chlorinator gets power is when the pump is on? Is this right? Edit. Do "Load sides" work independently? I'm guessing they do since there is a dedicated "line" for each. I've not...

Gonna have to see how it is wired again and then try to understand what you mean. Would no "load" go to aux3 relay? Just "line"? That requires a jumper right?

Doing a bit of digging and reading, I did run across this. "The IC40's transformer must be wired to the load side of the pump filter relay." So obviously Pentair doesn't recommend putting the IC on it's own relay.

Kinda messed around with the setup on my phone. As you can see the new circuit at the bottom "Chlorinator" (which would be on Aux 3 alone when I rewire) is made and will trigger pump to come on and run at 2200rpm. All I would then do is set the schedule to run in the place of my current(at top...

Thanks for the reply guys. After opening the panel, the only thing that triggers the heater on/off is the com cable that is attached to the main pc board. There are no wires from the breaker to the relay circuit that the pump/cell is on. Putting pump on 1 circuit and the chlorinator on another...

My heater, Pentair Mastertemp 400, will not come on without my main pool circuit on. That circuit has the pump and chlorinator on it. I have set a feature on my ET so that when I want to heat pool, my pump will also come on at a certain gpm. Is there a setting in the ET configuration that...

It is at 58* right now. But forecasts is expecting low/mid 20s early next week for a couple days. My pump doesn't run after 10pm and then comes back on at 8am. But runs pretty much all day so it picks up leaves when winds are blowing. At night wind doesn't blow that hard. So in the end if I...

Did some reading on freeze protection and got the jist of it. However, I really didn't find what I was looking for to my answer. Right now I have 1 main "Pool" circuit and 2 "features" setup for my Pentair Intellipro VSF. Obviously when "pool" schedule kicks on, so does chlorinator. When the 2...

I do not have that pool anymore. I was using that as an example of my target at that time. With this new plaster pool I have a FC of 13 and CYA of 55-60. Obviously FC is out of the range with CYA at that range. All my system equipment is bigger than what I should have for the size pool I have...

I did and the SWCG doesn't come on, just as I want. In the event my FC goes down, based on less SWCG run time, I can always add more time or add another schedule for it to run for a short time.

I have set that pump speed to 2200rpm as it is under "Pool". But SWCG doesn't kick on. I double-checked that when I had it on.

@Jimrahbe I think this scheduled setup is what you mean, right? Pool Low is my feature. Pool is normal setup.
