If I adjust the actuator position using the toggle switch will it automatically go back to its set position when I shut the pump off or switch from pool to spa mode? Or do I have to manually get it back to where it was?
The switch on the valve actuator reverses the on/off positions, so if you're in "pool" mode, and you flip that switch to send water to the spa instead, that's where it will be in pool mode until you manually flip it back.
The physical stop positions of the actuator are determines by a set of two cams on the actuator shaft. You adjust those cams by opening the actuator lid, loosening the shaft cam nut and then rotate the cam stops to the position you want. You do this with the manual switch in the OFF position and then you test the valve positions by flipping the switch from ON1 to ON2. These actuators are designed to rotate between two limits, that’s it. You can manually stop them anywhere between the limits but when in the ON position the shaft rotates from one stop to the other.
