4. סעטאַפּ און ייַנמאָנטירונג

Installation should only be performed by a qualified professional in accordance with all local and national electrical and plumbing codes.

4.1 עלעקטריקאַל קאַנעקשאַנז:

Refer to Figure 2 for internal wiring details. Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated.

• אַרייַנשרייַב מאַכט: Connect to a dedicated circuit as per local codes. The unit supports 120VAC or 240VAC.
• אויסגאבעס: Connect the pool pump and solar valve actuators as indicated. Maximum output rating is 10A at 240VAC.
• גראָונדינג: A proper ground connection is essential for safety.
• סענסאָרס: Connect the pool water sensor, solar collector sensor, and auxiliary sensor (if used) to the designated terminals.

4.2 Jumper Placement:

Jumpers are located inside the control panel (see Figure 2). These jumpers configure specific features of the controller. Consult the detailed wiring diagram inside the unit for precise placement. Incorrect jumper placement can lead to improper operation or damage.

• Jumper J1: Typically used for sensor type selection.
• Jumper J2: May enable or disable specific functions like nocturnal cooling or freeze protection.

4.3 Enclosure:

Mount the controller in a location that is easily accessible but protected from direct sunlight and excessive moisture. Ensure the UV-protected locking weatherproof enclosure is securely closed after all connections are made.

5. אַפּערייטינג ינסטרוקטיאָנס

Once installed and powered, the GL-235 controller is ready for operation.

5.1 סוויטש מאָדעס:

The controller features a three-position switch for operation modes (refer to Figure 2):

• מאַנואַל: Operates the pool pump and solar system regardless of sensor temperatures. This mode is useful for testing or specific manual operations like heating or cooling.
• אָטאַמאַטיק: The controller automatically activates the solar system to maintain the desired pool temperature. This is the standard operating mode for energy-efficient heating.
• מאַנואַל אַוועק: Disables the solar system and pump operation. This mode is used when the solar system is not desired or for maintenance.

5.2 טעמפּעראַטור באַשטעטיקן:

Use the single rotary dial on the front panel to set your desired pool temperature. The dual digital display will show the current pool temperature and the solar collector temperature.

5.3 געפירט ינדיקאַטאָרס:

The LEDs on the control panel provide visual feedback on the system's status:

• מאַכט: ווײַזט אָן אַז די אַפּאַראַט באַקומט מאַכט.
• באַהיצונג: Illuminates when the solar system is actively heating the pool.
• קאָאָלינג: Illuminates when nocturnal cooling is active (if enabled).
• סענסאָר: Indicates proper sensor connection and operation.
• פּאָמפּע: Indicates the pool pump is running.

5.4 Advanced Settings:

• הויך לימיט: The maximum temperature the controller will allow the pool to reach, adjustable from 70°F to 140°F.
• Recirculation Freeze Protection: If enabled, the system will circulate water through the solar collectors to prevent freezing when temperatures drop.
• Nocturnal Cooling: If enabled, the system can circulate pool water through the collectors at night to cool the pool, useful in hot climates.
