4. OPERATING ANG PROGRAMMING

4.1 CONTROL COVER

The valve's module cover features a panel with push buttons and LEDs to indicate its various functions
TEST – Indicates potential problems that might affect the valve (fl ashing)
WASTE-VACIADO – Indicates drainage function
(-) Reduces programmed time
(+) Increases programmed time
(0.5' 1' 2' 3' 4') Indicates programmed wash time (in minutes)
(20" 40") Indicates length of programmed rinse cycle (in seconds)
In the event of an interruption to the power supply, the programmed times for wash and rinse
cycles will be erased, settings reverting to the default setting of 0.5' and 20" until the appliance
is re-programmed.
A conventional control box (if possible, an AstralPool model) is always necessary in order to
programme fi ltration for your automatic valve set.
The basic components necessary in the control box are: Differential (advisable) Magneto thermal
breaker, pump contactor, Position switch (on "II", high "I") and timer programmer.
4.2 TIMED BACKWASH SWITCH
The bottom right hand area of the electronics board (2) (APPENDIX 2 Item 2) contains a microswitch
used to connect ("ON" position) and disconnect ("OFF" position) the 7-day cleaning function.
The 7-day timer resets when:
- The 7-day cleaning function has completed
- A pressure clean has completed
- Power is connected or reconnected after a power outage.
All cleaning will be pressure cleaning while the 7-day microswitch is set to the "OFF" position.

4.3 PROGRAMMING.

Filtration:
1º Programme the fi ltration time via the timer to be found in the control box.
2º Programme wash time using the push button control on the cover of the electronic module,
pressing (+) or (-) to select the desired time shown in minutes on the LED display (when the
valve performs this function the LED display will fl ash).
3º Programme rinse time using the push button control on the cover of the electronic module,
pressing (+) or (-) to select the desired time shown in minutes on the LED display (when the
valve performs this function the LED display will fl ash). If any button is pushed during the
wash and rinse cycles, in order to change the time programmed, the time entered will remain
programmed for the next time the appliance is used.
WARNING: when the valve is on "fi ltration" position and out of the hour programming, the pump
can be started by using the switch (position "forced" "1" – see APPENDIX 1).
If the fi lter pressure rises while the valve is working in this position, the pressure switch will
activate and start the backwashing and rinsing processes.
