How to Schedule Different Pump Speeds via New Circuit/Feature (Pentair ScreenLogic)

Hi Everyone!

I'm new here and found this forum from a Google search. I have a question about setting up a new feature/circuit which is a clone of an existing feature/circuit but with a different pump speed. I'm using Pentair ScreenLogic/SLConfig.

There is a circuit in our ScreenLogic config named "Spa Waterfall" and it is associated with "Feature 1" and circuit function "Spillway".

When this circuit runs, it turns a valve to return 100% of the water to the spa and creates a nice backyard ambiance with the waterfall effect. I'm currently running this circuit on top of the pool schedule at a slightly higher rpm vs. the pool circuit so that I get a better waterfall effect (even at the same RPMs as the pool circuit). I run this from 8a-8p daily. I don't see any drawback to using this circuit and returning 100% of the water to the spa vs. the pool circuit but I'm all ears if you can think of any!

Anyway, my desire is to clone the "Spa Waterfall" circuit and set up a new circuit (i.e. Waterfall Low) at a slightly lower RPM and then schedule this circuit to run starting @ 4pm when the electricity rates DOUBLE in the summer time here in San Diego. I'd still like to enjoy the waterfall ambiance in the late afternoon and evening hours but at a lower cost.

So my issue is, I created a new circuit named "waterfall low" and associated it with "feature 2" and the "spillway" circuit function - just like the "spa waterfall" circuit associated with "feature 1". HOWEVER, when I use this new circuit, it doesn't turn the valve to direct 100% of the water back to the spa. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!
How did you create a new circuit name can’t figure how to do it
 
Welcome to TFP.

Do you have Screenlogic?

Where do you program your EasyTouch?

Are you asking specifically about changing the name of a Feature Circuit or how to create a Feature Circuit?
