the Alarm screen.
3.3
Pump Operation
The pumps can be controlled manually or automati-
cally. See the following sections for instructions on
both types of operation.
3.3.1
Manual Pump Operation
To manually control the pumps with the controller,
the operation mode must be set to Manual by press-
ing the AUTO/MANUAL key. Note that this key is
not allowed unless the system is stopped. The Auto/
Manual LED will be off to indicate manual opera-
tion. The system must also be started by pressing the
START/STOP key. The Start/Stop LED will be on to
indicate the system is started.
Pumps are automatically disabled when operation
mode is changed to manual. Press the corresponding
PUMP ENABLE keys to start or stop pumps. The
corresponding LED will turn solid green to indicate a
pump is on.
3.3.2
Automatic Pump Operation
To automatically control the pumps with the control-
ler, the operation mode must be set to Auto by press-
ing the AUTO/MANUAL key. Note that this key is
not allowed unless the system is stopped. The Auto/
Manual LED will be on to indicate automatic opera-
tion. The system must also be started by pressing the
START/STOP key. The Start/Stop LED will be on to
indicate the system is started.
During automatic pump operation, the pumps will
turn on or off based on the primary staging method.
If more pumps are required to meet the system
demand, they will stage on as required. When the
system demand is met, and the minimum pump run
timer is met, the pumps will destage until only one
pump is running. When there is no demand in the
system, the no flow shutdown alarm or event will
occur, shutting down the last running pump. During
this sequence, alarms may occur that shut down a
specific pump or all of the pumps. Various automatic
pump alternation methods may be used to alternate
the pump sequence at any time.
View the status screens, shown in section 3.4, to get
system information including on/off or auto/manual
status, pump status, sensor values, or staging status.
