Thanks, I’m not sure on dipswitch, electrician/plumber set that up, not sure how to access actually, looks like just top 2 screws and cover drops down? Can I test that switch is on otherwise by using service mode (currently auto) and pressing aux3 or spa mode? Spillover is working though, with pool and spa returns open, and I’ve put in spa mode to test that spa drain opens and spa jets open, while returns close and spillover stops during spa mode so it seems working properly.
Spa jet and return question?

You just open up the cover to look at the dip switches on the top left.

Forgot to attach, switches are behind this plate so I guess these 2 screws to access?

Correct those two screws, the bottom of the cover is held by a couple of tabs that fit into slots in the bottom of the box. Once you open the cover be aware that there is exposed 120V power on the relays in the lower compartment, be careful where you put your fingers.

Yup, those two screws.
It looks like @1Mik has the new model Load Center after October 1, 2009 that has a two piece front and you can open the low voltage top without exposing the high voltage circuits.
So dipswitch was off, I could tell since speed was listed as speed 4 on web link. Once I switched dipswitch 3 to on, it changed speed listing to spillover and aux 3 label in ilink to spillover
. I tested spillover setting after and works return valve as it should, I just had to up the spillover speed setting to 3200 to get a decent waterfall. I was little scared to go to max speed since I’m new to this. Won’t run spillover often, will keep in pool mode mostly and water will trickle over edge, but it’s a nice feature and will use it. Thanks @ajw22 and @flynwill. Is it ok for pump to stay on when it when switching to spillover mode? Noticed Pump pauses when switching between pool and spa modesAttachments
Mik,
You have to run the spillover once or twice a day for half an hour, to an hour.. This is because without the spillover, the spa will never get fresh chlorinated water.
You can just schedule it.
Thanks,

If your spillover is trickling over the edge in POOL mode, most people turn it off. Letting your spillover run while in POOL mode causes your pH to rise more rapidly from the aeration the spillover causes. That will require more frequent acid additions.
We recommend spillover be off in POOL mode and the spillover be scheduled to run twice a day for 15 minutes to refresh the spa water. I have my spillover scheduled to run at 9 am to get chlorinated water in the spa for the day then at 2PM to refresh the water.
Yes, since the suction valve is not changing the pump can stay running.
