4.0 Standard Programming Functions
4.1 Setting Filter Cycle Start Time (J200/ 2011-2013 J300/ JLX Collections)
Two methods for setting the lter cycle start time are possible:
1. Turn power on to the hot tub two minutes prior to the desired lter cycle start time, or
2. Press and hold both WARMER and COOLER buttons at the same time, then press the JETS 1
button once to reset the control panel and start the power-up sequence. During the power-up se-
quence, the factory default lter cycle (F1) and temperature setpoint 100°F (38°C) are automatically selected.
To select another lter cycle at this time, refer to Section 4.2 below. The selected lter cycle will start approxi-
mately two minutes after the power-up sequence ends. Example: If you desire your rst lter cycle to begin
at 10:00 AM, perform either of the above steps 1 or 2 at 9:58 AM. Filter cycle start time may vary slightly from
setpoint.
4.2 Filtration Options
The control system activates a programmable “standard” or “economy” ltration/heating cycle to
remove larger debris missed by the circulation pump ltration system (when equipped). These cycles
utilize pump 1 and the larger lter cartridge end to quickly clear “skim” the water of large debris and
minimize their “bathtub ring” effect. Apart from their ltration benet, each mode also effects the op-
eration of your spa’s heater. Refer to Section 4.3 below for additional information.
A. F0-F3 Standard Skimming/Heating Modes (2011-2013 J300 Collection)
Standard ltration/heating modes are typically selected by customers that use their spa on a fre-
quent basis and desire a fully heated spa when lifting the cover. In these modes, the water tem-
perature is regulated by the set temperature, the circulation pump, and heater which turns on as
needed. After the programmed set temperature is reached, the heater turns off and the circulation
pump continues to operate for the remaining of the cycle to lter and clean your spa.
Note: In 2011-2012 the circulation pump had a default runtime of 24 hours. In 2013 the default time
changed to 8 hours (except for the J-315 and J-325).
B. F4-F6 Economy Skimming/Heating Modes (2011-2013 J300 Collection)
Economy ltration/heating modes are typically selected by customers that use their spa on an infrequent
basis or to simply desire to minimize energy consumption levels. In these modes, the water temperature is
regulated by the set temperature, circulation pump, and heater only while a programmed lter cycle is run-
ning (unless in summer logic; refer to Section 5.4, page 14).
Note:
• Economy modes may consume less energy than standard modes above, in cold or freezing conditions.
• In 2011-2012 the circulation pump had a default runtime of 24 hours. In 2013 the default time changed to 8
hours (except for the J-315 and J-325).
C. F0-F3 Standard Skimming/Heating Modes (J-LX Collection)
Standard ltration/heating modes are typically selected by customers that use their spa on a frequent basis
and desire a fully heated spa when lifting the cover. In these modes, the water temperature is regulated by
the set temperature. The circulation pump, and heater turn on as needed. After the programmed set tem-
perature is reached, the heater turns off and the spa continues normal operations.
Note: The circulation pump also supplies heated water to the spa when the heater turns on. Any time the
circulation pump runs outside of a programmed cycle, that run time will reduce the length of the next
cycle, started in 2014.
D. F4-F6 Economy Skimming/Heating Modes (J-LX Collection)
Economy ltration/heating modes are typically selected by customers in warm climates where heat up
times are minimized due to higher ambient temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature is regulat-
ed by the set temperature. The circulation pump, and heater only while a programmed lter cycle is running
(unless in summer logic; refer to Section 5.4, page 14).
Note: Economy modes may consume less energy than standard modes above, in cold or freezing conditions.
