Jandy iAqualink system pump speed

[cclocke]

I am hijacking this post from last year, and thankful that I found it.

I've had my pool for a year and just realized that my installer added Heat Pump as speed 7 as well, which results in 2750 speed whenever the heat pump setting is enabled, even when the pool was heated to the correct temperature. I'm sure my electric bill was affected by this.

As this thread suggested, I have removed the "Heat Pump" on speed label 7. Now, once the pool is heated to the set temperature, the pump speed goes down to the "Pool" speed setting, which is 1750.

Prior to the change, in the app, the "Spa Heater" and "Heat Pump" toggles pretty much worked in unison. When one was on, the other automatically turned on, and vice versa. This seemed odd to me.

Assuming that the the Dip switch S1 8 is correctly set to Heat Pump, is there any need anymore to have "Heat Pump" listed under "My Devices" on the app, and if so, is there a way to remove it?

Also, if you see anything else that you suggest changing, please let me know. I am hoping to take over for the pool guy in the next month or so, and my wife won't be happy if I mess anything up.

Maybe @MSchutzer @HermanTX know how the heat pump works with the Aqualink VS speeds.

 

[MSchutzer]

If you have your heater type as heat pump rather than gas then the pool heat and spa heat VSP speeds will be the speeds applied when the heat pump is enabled and actively heating.

I think the 5 minute cooldown pump shutoff delay also goes away, but that may be a separate DIP switch setting that controls that.

I was actually doing some research for this post because I do not have a HP but a NG Heater. I agree with Mark above, the Pool/Spa Heat will be the controlling speed when heat is called for since the dipswitch is set for HP.
What I could not determine if the device will be removed from the list. Jandy has some things built into the firmware that they do not discuss and only see when a dip switch or similar feature is active. Sometimes when you shut down the whole system and reboot it, it may update the device list.

Your speeds look good for the items you have listed. Also your schedule looks fine.

So I removed the case to look at the dip switches.

I can't tell if these are all on or all off. If off, I guess I will need to turn the S1 8 to on? @MSchutzer

Usually they are OFF by default. Move S1-8 to the right. Turn off all power to the cabinet. Move the dipswitch then put power back on.
