Changing pump speed with Jandy Aqualink when solar temp is high

I'm setting up a Hotspot FPH system with my Jandy Aqualink using the approach described in this thread to change the resistance of the solar temp sensor when I want heating to be enabled. I'd like for the pump speed to change to the SOLAR HEAT (7) pump speed when the solar temp is high, but it doesn't seem to be happening. I have dip S2-1 set to OFF for solar and the solar JVA shows "USED" but I do not have one installed. Is there something else I need to do?

Advice appreciated!

I finally discovered the answer. I didn't realize there's an "other devices" section in Aqualink with a "solar" that must be turned on, it's not automatic based on the sensor. I was combing through the manual and I didn't see where that was mentioned - the easiest solution ever. Maybe this will help someone else in the future :)
