Schedules of Pentair VS pump vs Schedules of Easytouch Control System

[BaconBlue]

Hi
Wehave had schedules set up in the Easytouch panel but just learned the Pump also has some schedules as well. Which ones override which? Especially when it comes to starting the pump? Any help is much appreciated.

Welcome to the forum!

I assume you have an Intelliflo pump? If so, a serial cable should have been run from the pump to the Easytouch. So your pump is now full controlled by the Easytouch. If you look at the control display on the pump, it should say "Display Not Active".

Take care.

Welcome to the Trouble Free Pool forum. To get the best assistance from the group, please include a signature listing the data for your pool and its equipment. (See mine below for an example.) If you click on the "Settings" button at the top, it will take you to a page where you can enter the data for a signature.

Normally, when the EasyTouch panel is properly connected to the VS pump, the pump controls are overridden by the EasyTouch panel. If the panel loses power and pump doesn't, the pump can be controlled via its own LCD panel.

bb,

Welcome to TFP... A Great resource for all your pool related questions...

With the EasyTouch there is almost no reason to ever have to use the control panel on the pump..

As Marty points out, the pump's display should read "Display not active"... if not, that means that the EasyTouch is not communicating with the pump.

At this point it would be important the know the exact pump that you have, as not all pumps can be controlled by the EasyTouch..

Thanks,

Jim R.
