C, Sorry I thought you had different type of filter.. I have no experience with that one.. :( Jim R.

C, You either did not tighten the band enough or you need a new O-Ring.. Show us a pic of the band fastener.. Thanks, Jim R.

Fish, Another story... My first experience with a pool was with a rent house that I bought that had a pool. I took the filter apart to clean out the old DE. As part of the process, I also took apart the Grid Assembly, so I could inspect each grid. When it was time to put it all back together...

Fish, I assume you have an EasyTouch automation system.. If so, to stop the pump, you just push the Mode button.. 1st push, takes you into the Service mode. When done, push the button twice. This will take you through the Timeout mode and back to the Auto mode. Thanks, Jim R.

Fish, Here is a quick story for you... When I built the pool at my house, I really, really wanted a DE filter, because that is all I had ever used. But, the City requires that any DE filter be connected to the sewer, which would have been almost impossible.. So, I was "forced" to go with a...

Fish, What kind of Dolphin do you have that has a bag??? I quit using bags 8 or more years ago??? I agree, that look like DE. DE, can only get out of your filter if the grids have holes in them. About the only thing you can do now, is to open the filter and inspect the grids. That means...

AZAA, I too run 24/7 and nothing changes for me between summer and winter.. Other than my salt cell shuts off due to the low water temperature. I like to always see a little motion in my pool water. I find that when my pump is off, my pool looks dead.. :cry: I like skimming all the time...

ES, This is our problem also.. We have plenty of ideas, but we don't want to give your pool builder any reason to claim that you "caused" the plaster to go bad... In my opinion, your only valid option is to let your pool builder do his thing... :cry: Thanks, Jim R.

Joe, Thanks for the pics... They show that you have a Suction cleaner and that you have no automated valves.. Basically that means there is nothing to actually "turn on first" for your cleaner to run and that the amount of suction that your cleaner gets is just dependent on how you manually...

Joe, It appears to me that you must have a suction cleaner... It that correct? A pressure side cleaner would need a booster pump and I don't see any wiring for that. What kind of cleaner do you have?? It would be easier for you to just show me pics of your whole equipment pad, so I have a...

Joe, The little card with the green and red lights is the Surge Card. It is the power supply for your salt cell. I have never seen the red light before, so we will have to look at that after you get the pump running. Thanks, Jim R.

Joe, OK... To get you started, let's see if we can get your pump running. For this to happen several thing need be done. 1. We will need to add a schedule for your Pool Circuit 2. We will need to assign a speed for the Pool Circuit to run. For now the schedule will be 24/7, you can change...

Joe, Did you, or did you not, erase the EEPROM? Where are the two green lights and the red flashing lights?? Are they on the cell itself, or ?? Show me a pic.. Do you really have an 2-speed pump? You do not have a two-speed relay, so I doubt you have a two speed pump. Show me a pic of...

Joe, You may have to erase the EEPROM, but that is not what I would initially do.. It could be a very simple mistake.. Setting up everything all over again will be a real pain without ScreenLogic and not understanding how the EasyTouch works. Thanks, Jim R.

Joe, I need you to go out to your panel and tell me what you have for "Circuit Names" Menu, Settings, Circuit Names.. You should see 1/18 or some 1/#. This means you are looking at the first Circuit Name.. Pushing the up button will move you through each name.. Tell me what you show. Pool...

Joe, Do you have ScreenLogic, or are you doing everything through your 3" LCD?? Did you do anything to the wiring or the cables or the relay connections? What did you do programming wise? What were you trying to change or do? The more you tell me the better chance that we can get your...

PG, I was thinking about closing my pool this year, but digging it up and moving it to MD, just seemed like a little too much effort to me... :mrgreen: Wish I could help, but know zip about pool closings.. Thanks, Jim R.

Rod, You need to use Liquid Chlorine. Clorox Bleach works as long as it does not have any additives. It can't say easy pour or other such things. Thanks, Jim R.

Art, Looks like it is working to me... What else would you like to do??? Thanks, Jim R.

Art, The valves comes set to move 180 degrees.. But... you can set the stops where ever you want. The Jandy valve is a 3-way valve, when used manually, but when you add an actuator, it becomes a 2-way valve. You can set stops anywhere you want, but the valve will only move from one stop to...

Art, Actuators don't really get any programming. You just plug them into the A and B valve driver ports and assign a "Circuit Name" to them. You just use an unused Feature circuit to control each one. Let's say that you name Valve A "Jets".. Then you assign a speed that you want the jets...

Art, Glad you got the ScreenLogic working.. :goodjob: Show me this page from your PC... Under "Settings"... Show me a couple of pics of your equipment pad Thanks, Jim R.

Art, Did you get the inside transceiver and the Protocol Adapter??? All my screenshots are from my PC which is 10 x better to use than the phone.. Not much that you can do via ScreenLogic unless you have it connected to your EasyTouch. You can't add circuits.. Circuits come preloaded into...

Art, Go into the menu and find Circuit Names.. Change Aux 1 to Lights. Save Go into the menu and find Circuit Functions.. Change Aux 1 Function from generic to "IntelliBrite" Save. Thanks, Jim R.

Art, I suspect your pool builder knows that with ScreenLogic things are so simple that you don't need them. So he just kept the parts to get you to give up... :mrgreen: Here is the ScreenLogic scheduling page... Thanks, Jim R.

Art, The normal kit includes an outside antenna (transceiver) and an inside antenna (transceiver) and Protocol adapter. The outside antenna is useless without the inside equipment. Contact your pool builder and get the 'lost' parts. You do have you an EasyTouch, and it will work just fine...

Art, The little white and black thing hanging out of the bottom of your EasyTouch is the air temp sensor and has nothing to do with ScreenLogic. The EasyTouch and ScreenLogic have to talk with one another. They do this through a device called a Protocol Adapter, which is normally inside your...

Art, Do you have ScreenLogic loaded on a PC? If not, do that first, as it makes programming child's play.. :mrgreen: I can help, but it is time for me to sign off tonight. We have several member that can help, but if they don't tonight, I'll see what I can do tomorrow. In the meantime...

J, I'd just leave the valves the way they are... Both skimmers are open and your main drain is shut off. When the main drain is run back to the equipment pad, like you have, the 2nd hole in the skimmer is left plugged. Are you having a skimmer issue?? Thanks, Jim R.

Heather, So what you could do, it put a smaller eyeball on the strongest return and a larger eyeball on the weakest return. Thanks, Jim R.
