Title: Beachcomber question
Post by: RDF on June 22, 2004, 11:16:15 pm
Hey Steve, I tried my dealer first and he was getting different answers from the help line so I thought I would go to the answer man.. Problem is, whenever I kill the power for a water change or have a power failure, the hush pump will not run. The cure is to go into the box and pull one of the jumpers and pop it back on a different spot, wait 15 seconds and put it back to the original spot.  I think it is j-9..   I have a 730 with hush and no ozone.. Thanks again Steve,  Ron

Hey Ron,

Ya know... I delt with this once about 6 months ago but I can't for the life of me recall what the problem was. ???

Leave it with me and I'll find out.

Ron,
Same problem here with 720. We get a momentary power outage and the Hush Pump stays off. While waiting for Steve's professional solution, you can advance the system clock 24 hours and the pump will restart. That's a lot easier than getting into the control board.

Having no idea what I am talking about, I found this post interesting.  If you wait 24 hours will the pump start running?  Is there some reason they would set it to not run for the first 24 hours?  (Clueless, but interested)

Bill,
The setup for my tub with a Hush Pump (circulation pump) is to run in two continuous 12 hour cycles. One at 0200 and the other at 1400. At each twelve hour period, the Hush Pump theoretically "restarts". I suggested moving the system clock ahead 24 hours just to keep AM/PM straight. The pump would have restarted on its own at the next 2 o'clock interval. BTW, Steve also told me to raise the TEMP setting and that will restart the circ. pump, but I'd rather reset the system clock and not raise the temp setting. I think there is more to this, but this is what I do until I get Tech. Support to come up with a solution.

You're right! I did nothing after the power failure and the circ pump is circing. Thanks for the tip, I guess sometimes less is best. Ron
