OPERATION!OF!CONTROL!PANEL!–!VIRON!P320!&!P600!EVO!(CONT…)!

Using the inbuilt timer to operate pump with an AstralPool Chlorinator or RolaChem dosing unit.

Factory Default Setting

1. The inbuilt timers are activated and will control the time the pump operates.

2. Connectivity to AstralPool compliant Salt Chlorinators, RolaChem Chemical dosing controllers or Viron Connect remote Controls is turned “off”.

3. Use the “auto” button to turn the pump on or off. When in on position, the pump will remain off until the next timer period unless pressed again to manually on. If pump is turned to manually on, it will continue to operate indefinitely. If in the “Off” position (visible on the LCD), the pump will remain indefinitely off. For timer operation, ensure the “auto” button is pressed so that the LCD screen displays “auto”.

Setting the current Time

1. If connected to a compliant AstralPool Salt Chlorinator or RolaChem dosing controller connect data cable between rear of pump and the chlorinator or RolaChem dosing unit.

2. Connect and turn power on to the pump and Chlorinator (or dosing unit).

3. Toggle “menu” (twice) until “CLK” appears and press “enter” to set time. Use up and down arrows to set the hour, press “enter” again to set minutes and then press “enter” again to set AM or PM.

4. Press “enter” to accept.

5. The LCD screen will quickly flash 3 times to indicate the new setting has been accepted.

Setting pump to operate independently of external AstralPool Compliant Chlorinator or Control System

1. Toggle Menu until “CONF” is displayed on the LCD screen.

2. Press and HOLD “enter” for 3 seconds. “TMRS” will appear.

3. Press “enter”.

4. Press UP or Down buttons to turn “TMRS ON”.

5. Press “enter” to accept.

6. Press “auto” to return to main menu.

Changing Low, Med and High Speed Settings

1. Select the Speed Button to be adjusted, Low, Medium or High. Respective LED will light up.

2. Alter the speed in increments of 25 RPM using the up and down arrows until the desired speed is displayed on the screen. Respective “Speed 1”, Speed 2” or “Speed 3”, will flash while editing.

3. The new speed will automatically save after 2 seconds. Flashing will stop to signal save.

Setting filtration timer periods

1. Press Menu to go to PRIM setting.

2. Prime period is defaulted to 5 minutes and high speed. We recommend if your pump is installed at or below water level, you change the PRIM to 2 minutes. Press “enter” and then Up or Down arrows to change the prime speed. Press “enter” to accept. Priming period will now be displayed.

3. Use the Up or Down arrow to change the Priming period. Press “enter” to accept.

4. Press Menu to go to TMR “timer settings” and press “enter” to change.

5. Timer 1 is factory set to start at 8 am. Use up or down arrows to change. Press High, Medium, or Low to select the speed of the pump during Timer 1. On the LCD Screen High is represented by speed “1”, medium by speed “2”, and Low by speed “3”.

6. Press Enter to move to the stop or end time of Timer 1. Use the up and down arrows to change the end of Timer 1.

7. Timer 2 will now appear on the LCD Screen. Repeat instructions 4. to 6. Above.

8. Timer 3 will now appear but is factory preset to OFF. Moving any timer to midnight will turn that Timer period off. Use the up and down arrows to activate the time and repeat process 4 and 5 above.

9. Timer 4 is also factory preset to “off” but can be activated by using the up and down arrows.

10. Remember to select the speed you wish to operate during each timer period by pressing the High, Medium or Low buttons while still in the Timer Start program.

Inst.300*Viron*EVO*Po o l*&*Spa*Pump*V01_15*

Using the in built pump timers with a non compliant chlorinator or dosing unit.

1. We do not recommend the use of the pump timers when a non compliant chlorinator or chemical doser is supplied water flow by the Viron P320 or P600 eVo pump.

2. In this case, the pump operating hours should be controlled by the chlorinator time clock and the pump plugged into the chlorinator. This is a safety measure provided for by most chlorinator manufacturers.

3. However, it is important to deactivate the inbuilt pump timers.

4. Toggle Menu until “CONF” is displayed on the LCD screen

5. Press and HOLD “enter” for 3 seconds

6. Toggle Menu until “TMR” appears

7. Press UP or Down buttons to turn “TMR OFF”

8. Press “enter” to accept

9. Press “auto” to return to main menu.

10. When cycling through the Menu button TMR will no longer appear.

11. You will no longer be able to automatically have the speed of the pump changed during different times of the day.

12. However, if you wish for a period where the pump operates at a high speed, for example to circulate the water vigorously for a part of the daily filtration, you can use the PRIMING setting to do so.

Using the PRIMING program to circulate the water at a higher flow rate for part of the daily filtration cycle.

1. Toggle Menu to go to PRIM setting.

2. Prime period is defaulted to 5 minutes and high speed. Use the up and down arrows to change the Priming period up to 120 minutes. Use the High, medium, or low buttons to select the speed you wish the pump to operate for during the Priming period. In this case, we recommend the High Speed button be selected.

3. Press “Auto” to exit the programming.

Using Pump with AstralPool compliant external control

AstralPool manufactures Salt Chlorinators, RolaChem chemical dosing units or the Viron Connect Touch Screen Control system which can control both the operating times of the all Viron eVo pumps PLUS the speed the pump operates at during each timer period.

For the P320 & P600 you must enable the communication port and disable the Pump in built timers.

1. Toggle Menu until CONF (configure) appears. Hold enter for 3 seconds.

2. Toggle Menu until “TMR” appears.

3. Press UP or Down buttons to turn “TMR OFF”. Remember, you are now using the external control to set the pump operating hours, so the pump timer must be turned off.

4. Press “enter” to accept

5. Toggle menu until SYS (system) appears. Press the up or down button and turn to “ON”. The Viron P320 or P600 eVo will accept the start, end and pump speed instructions from the AstralPool compliant control chlorinator, Rolachem dosing controller or Viron Connect Touch Screen Control.

6. Press “auto” to return to main menu.

7. The time will still be visible on the LCD display however, the timer function in the menu setting will no longer appear. Toggle the menu button will now only display PRIM (priming program), CLK (clock setting) and CONF (Configuration menu).

8. Refer to your AstralPool compliant Chlorinator, RolaChem Dosing Control or Viron Connect Touch Screen Control manual for details of programming the pump speed and operating hours.

WARRANTY!

AstralPool Australia Pty Ltd (ABN 97 007 284 504) ("AstralPool") provides the following warranty in relation to its Viron eVo series Pool and Spa pumps ("Product").

Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

The benefits of this warranty are in addition to any rights and remedies imposed by Australian State and Federal legislation that cannot be excluded. Nothing in this warranty is to be interpreted as excluding, restricting or modifying any State or Federal legislation applicable to the supply of goods and services which cannot be excluded, restricted or modified.

WARRANTY AstralPool warrants that, subject to the exclusions and limitations below, the Product will be free from defects in materials and workmanship during the warranty period. The warranty periods are set out below and commence 30 days after the date of purchase (to allow for installation). The warranty period may vary for different parts of the Product.

If a defect appears in the Product before the end of the warranty period and AstralPool finds the Product to be defective in materials or workmanship, AstralPool will, in its sole discretion, either:

(a) replace or repair the Product or the defective part of the Product free of charge; or (b) Cause the Product or the defective part of the Product to be replaced or repaired by an Authorised AstralPool Service Agent free of charge.

AstralPool reserves the right to replace defective parts of the Product with parts and components of similar quality, grade and composition where an identical part or component is not available.

Goods presented for repair may be replaced by refurbished goods of the same type rather than being repaired. Refurbished parts may be used to repair the goods.

WARRANTY CLAIMS

1. If a fault covered by warranty occurs, the customer must first contact AstralPool at the contact address listed below, or an Authorised AstralPool Service Agent.

2. Any warranty claim must be accompanied by: (a) proof of purchase; (b) full details of the alleged defect; and (c) appropriate documentation (such as historical and maintenance records).

3. The customer must make the Product available to AstralPool or its Authorised AstralPool Service Agent for inspection and testing. AstralPool or its Authorised AstralPool Service Agent will attend the premises where the Product is installed for inspection and testing. If the Product is installed: (a) outside a capital city metropolitan area; and (b) is not within a 20 km radius of an Authorised AstralPool Service Agent; then the customer may have to pay a travel fee.

4. If such inspection and testing finds no defect in the Product, the customer must pay AstralPool's usual costs of service work and testing. If such inspection and testing finds a defect that is not covered by this warranty, the customer must pay AstralPool's usual costs of service work plus any parts and labour required to repair the Product, unless recoverable from AstralPool on the failure of any statutory guarantee under the ACL.
