Yes, the 0-100 is percentage of the time it is making chlorine in the cycle. I think you said it runs on a 3 hour cycle. So, on 50% it will make chlorine for 1-1/2 hours of the 3 hour cycle.
I wonder as an example: If I have it on for just say 1 hour at 50% Do you know how long the "on - off" cycle is? I mean is it on and then off for 10 min cycles, maybe 15 on and 15 off? I am curious as to how often it turns on and off and if it is based on maybe a hour of time? It must be set on a timeframe, I would think % of each per hour.....The reason I am asking is the lady tech at Hayward (that really did nor seem qualified) said I needed to run it a min of 6 hours for it to complete a full cycle. This really is important to know as if it based on a 24 hour clock, it could not work correctly on a % basis if not run continuous for 24 hrs. . From what she said, I am thinking it is based on a 6 hour time frame to complete whatever % it is set at? If that is the case then it would be 3 hours on / off, which does not make sense. Not trying to be anal, but since I am on a separate time clock for the SWG, it could make a difference. Probably over thinking this.
