3–Pump 33-Station Controllers Chapter 4: Operation 37 of 51
Transferring Stations to a Standby Pump
If a pump fails, you can transfer all of the controller’s station assignments for that pump to a
standby pump. To do this, you must disable (take offline) both the source pump and the
standby pump, and the standby pump must have no stations already assigned to it.
The transfer operation at the controller’s touch screen merely changes the pump assignment
for every station on the failed pump. It does not transfer any pump settings for auto shutdown
delay, alarms, or blow-back to the standby pump. Mechanical connections must be changed
manually.
To transfer stations from a pump to a standby pump, complete the following steps:
1. At any screen, touch Menu, and then touch Pumps. The “Pump Status” screen
appears.
2. Both the source pump and the standby pump must be offline. If either pump is any
other state, disable it by touching its icon briefly. The icon becomes black with a gray
outline.
3. Move the vacuum hose from the failed pump to the standby pump, and carry out any
other mechanical procedures needed to use the standby pump.
4. At the “Pump Status” screen, touch and hold the icon for any pump until the “Pump
Setup” screen appears.
5. At the “Pump Setup” screen, touch Transfer Stations To Standby Pump. The
“Transfer to Standby Pump” screen opens:
