Newly installed. All new Pentair Intelliflo VSF, Screenlogic, Easytouch. The clock has never kept time. I can reset the clock at the panel, on my Andoid phone, my PC and my iPad. No problem resetting it, but why won't it keep time? It loses 10-12 hours every day. Any suggestions before I call Pentair?
Pentair won't keep time.

There is a button battery on the back of the Easy Touch board that might be the issue. you'll have to flip the panel down to see it.
The battery tested full charge. I replaced it anyway. Clock still not advancing like it should.
M,
If all new, why not have your pool builder fix it?? Or call Pentair, whatever works for you.. It should just work, as far as I know there is no trick to it..
Since it is new, and just to make sure you know... Your "lite" version of the EasyTouch will only support 4 programs or schedules, including any egg-timers.. I only say that because ScreenLogic will allow you to enter a bazillion schedules.. They will just not work...
Thanks,
Jim R.

Thank you for responding. I only have a pool, cleaner, waterfall and light. The only schedule I have set up turns the pool and cleaner on at night.
I did contact my pool builder. He came and fixed another issue I had and said he would schedule a Pentair rep to come out for the clock issue.
Haven't heard from him since. This has become a pattern with him and I'm tired of it.
I emailed back and forth a few times with a Pentair rep but nothing he suggested fixed it and he told me to call Pentair instead, which I will do.
I'm surprised no one else has run into this issue.
