I want to program my WhisperFlo VST through the EasyTouch8 controller. I have all of the pump connected through the Com port and working.

Question 1: How can I program the pump to a certain speed when the pool is calling for heat? The pump is set to run at a 2,250 rpm for most of the time. It bumps up to 3,000 RPM when the fountains are turned on. There's also a button programmed to run at 2,850 RPM when pushed to aid in vacuuming. Now I'd like the pump to run at 2,500 RPM when calling for heat. This is the flow rate that fully opens the inline check valve.

As true with most folks, I find EasyTouch programming to be more difficult than learning Calculus.
 
Ed,

Your pump's speed is controlled by whatever 'circuit" or circuits are on... My guess is you have a speed assigned for Pool Circuit... On the same page, you just select heater..

When the heater asks for heat, the pump will speed up to whatever speed you assign.

Do you have ScreenLogic?? If so, here is what it looks like ..


Don't pay any attention to the rpm, as I don't have heater and just playing with it..


Thanks,

Jim R.
 
I don't have screen logic, thinking about it, though.
It's a lot easier to understand than the EasyTouch 8 control panel!
Thank you for your help!
