SC-MP-DY5 / Dual-Pump System
The Quick Reference Card provides a quick overview of your spa's main
functions and the operations accessible with your digital control pad.
Starting Pump 1 & Pump 2:
Press Pumps once to turn pump 1 on at low  
speed. Pressing a second time turns Pump 1 and 
Pump 2 to high speed. A third time turns both 
pumps off. A built-in timer automatically turns 
pumps off after 20 minutes (Pump 1 low speed 
after 2 hours), unless manually deactivated first. 
  The "Pump 1" indicator flashes 
  when Pump 1 is on at low speed. 
  "Pump 1" and "Pump 2" indicators 
  light up when both pumps are on 
  at high speed.
Starting the blower:
Press Blower once to turn blower on. Pressing a 
second time turns blower off. A built-in timer automatically turns blower off after 20 minutes, unless 
manually deactivated first.
  The "Blower" indicator lights up 
  when blower is on.
Setting water temperature:
Use Up or Down arrow keys to regulate water 
temperature. The temperature setting will be 
displayed for 5 seconds to confirm your new 
selection.
  The "Set Point" indicator displays the 
  desired temperature, NOT the current 
  water temperature!
Water temperature can be adjusted by 1˚ increments from 59 to 104˚F (15 to 40˚C).
Temperature display unit:
Press and hold Light key for 5 seconds to display 
water temperature in either Fahrenheit (˚F) or 
Celsius (˚C). If a power-up occurs, system returns to default setting (˚F).
Turning the light on:
Press Light to turn light on. Pressing a second time 
turns light off. A built-in timer automatically turns 
light off after 2 hours, unless manually deactivated 
first.
  The "Light" indicator is displayed 
  when light is on.
Fiber Box Option: If spa has an optional fiber box, 
press Light key to turn fiber box (motor and light) 
on. Pressing a second time turns fiber box off but 
leaves light on. A third time turns both motor and 
light off. A built-in timer turns fiber box off after 
2 hours, unless it has been manually deactivated. 
The "Light" indicator is displayed when fiber box 
light is on. It flashes when fiber box motor and light 
are on at the same time.
LED Light Option: If spa has an optional LED 
light, press Light key to turn LED lights on. To  
advance to the next color/display setting, press 
Light key twice. The LEDs will go off with the first 
press, then back on in the next setting with the 
second press. If the LEDs remain off for more 
than 5 sec., the color/ display sequence will reset 
and start back at the beginning the next time the 
Light key is pressed. Color/ display sequences are:
1• LEDs light up and slowly cycle through all six 
 colors. The slow cycle restarts at the begin-  
 ning and repeats. 
2• LEDs light up and remain on in Aqua. 
3• LEDs light up and remain on in Purple. 
4• LEDs light up and remain on in Blue. 
5• LEDs light up and remain on in Gold. 
6• LEDs light up and remain on in Green. 
7• LEDs light up and remain on in Red. 
8• LEDs light up for 2 sec., flash off, then flash 
 on in the next color until all six colors have   
 been displayed. The flashing cycle then   
 repeats itself. 
9• LEDs flash on/off quickly for a strobe light 
 effect. A built-in timer turns lights off after  
 2 hours unless manually deactivated first.
  The "Light" icon is displayed 
  when LED light is on.
Quick Reference Card

Automatic water heater start:
When water temperature is 1˚F (0.5˚C) lower than  
the Set Point, the heater will automatically turn on until 
water temperature reaches Set Point plus 1˚F (0.5˚C).
  The "Heater" indicator lights up when the heater is  
  on. It flashes when there is a request for more  
  heat but the heater has not yet started.
N.B.: If your system is configured in Low Current Mode, 
the heater will not start if a pump is on at high speed.
Economy mode:
Press Econo key to switch from Normal mode  
to Economy mode. In Economy mode, system 
maintains temperature at the desired Set Point 
during filter cycles only. Set Point is 20˚F (11˚C) 
below the Normal mode Set Point for the rest 
of the time. In Economy mode, the display will 
toggle between the current water temperature 
and the "Econ" message.
PROGRAMMING FILTER CYCLE DURATION
The system automatically performs two filter cycles per day, at 12-hour intervals. During a filter cycle: Pump 2 and blower run 
for one minute, then Pump 1 runs at low speed for the programmed number of hours
The "Filter Cycle" indicator lights up when the filter cycle is on. To set filter cycle duration:
Press and hold Filter key 
until the display shows 
representing the currently 
set filter cycle duration in 
hours.
The filter cycle is suspended if the water temperature 
raises more than 2˚F (1˚C) above Set Point or if spa 
is in use (pumps, blower started manually). The "Filter" 
indicator will blink (on 0.5 second, off 0.5 second, 
on 0.5 second, off 1.5 seconds).

TROUBLESHOOTING
Pumps have started up for one 
minute on several occasions and 
"Filter Cycle" indicator is flashing.
3 flashing dots are displayed.
Water temperature is flashing. Water temperature in the spa has reached 112˚F (44˚C).
Use Up or Down arrow keys 
to change setting. 
 0 = no filtration 
12 = continuous filtration
N.B.: After a power failure, the filter cycle duration will 
return to its default value (2 hours). In this case, the first 
filter cycle will start one minute after power has been 
restored.
Not a bug but a feature!
Our Smart Winter Mode protects your spa from the 
cold by automatically turning pumps on for one minute 
several times a day to prevent water from freezing in pipes.
A problem has been detected.
Do not enter the water! Check and open water valves. 
Clean filter if necessary. Check water level. Add water 
if needed.
Shut power off and power your spa up again to reset 
the system.
Call your dealer or service supplier if problem persists.
Do not enter the water! Allow water to cool down. 
The system will reset automatically when water temperature 
reaches 109˚F (43˚C).
Call your dealer or service supplier if problem persists.
When the desired setting 
is displayed, press Filter key 
again to confirm. A filter cycle 
starts immediately.
The display is flashing. A power failure has occurred.
Press any key to reset the system, then reprogram all 
desired parameters.
