The HMI will display various modes of operation with
dedicated screens. These modes of operation can be
accessed through the interface on the home screen.

1.

operation are detailed in the startup procedure.

3.

Manual Mode is activated/deactivated by tapping

[MANUAL] from the home screen. When activated,
a dedicated screen will appear as shown in Figure

16 to allow manual operation of individual pumps.

staged on/off.

By tapping [ALTERNATION] an enhanced screen shown
in Figure 19 will appear that allows th e modi fi ca ti o n of
the alternation sequence for the station.

Figure 19: Default Alternati on Screen

The Alternation screen will allow th e use r to force
alternation of a given pump during a particular time of
day.

a. Enables forced alternation for given pump group

based on scheduled parameters in remaining
fields. Leaving this unchecked will disable the
forced alternation based on time of day. The
pumps will still alternate as they turn on and off

due to demand.
b. Sets the time for forcing alternation.
c. This section will default to the “unchecked”

position as shown. By ”checking” one of these

boxes, you will be forcing that pump to be the lead

pump when alternation occurs. Only one box

needs to be checked. If multiple boxes are

checked then the first checked pump from the right

will always be the lead pump.
d. Sets the day in which the system will force

alternation

anytime the pumps are turned off. However, alternation
will be forced daily at 2:00 a.m. with pump 1
established as the lead.

LOW PRESSURE OVERRIDE

The Low Pressure Override button allows the station’s
low pressure s afeties to be disabled for system service.
This function wil l allow for the technician to perform
system checks without low pressure alarms shutting the
station down. This feature should never be left on

while the station is unattended.
