CaliMar VS Pump Issue - Freeze Protection

[NoCatharsis]

The CircuPool SmartFlo manual has the following description.



The B+D manual has instructions for changing freeze settings.

I ran through the instructions on the B+D pump, but applied to my Calimar-branded pump. The freeze settings appeared to adjust and everything seemed to work exactly as described by B+D while I was in settings mode.

However, upon saving the settings, the Calimar pump seems to completely error out. The RPM just reads zero from that point on, and I was not able to adjust ANY setting nor even turn the pump on at this point. The Time LED is lit and shows the current time, but I cannot select anything else. The solution was to cycle the power, then I was able to get back to my Scheduled/Manual operation.

Has anyone had a different outcome with the Calimar specifically? I am going to assume Calimar has removed the temperature sensor or disconnected it from this programmed functionality, because there is no mention whatsoever of this "secret" menu in their operation manual.

I would say if it's not in the manual it's not in the program eventhough the two pumps look the same. You can try to reach out to calimar to get clarification on this.
