Yes we will need a replay of you attempting to set the percentage from both places. iChlor30 isn't listed use IntelliChlor 20. |

Hi,
I have just gotten NJSPC running, and I am having issues controlling my chlorinator. I have a ET P8, with an external load center for my chlorinator. The chlorinator I have is a Pentair iChlor 30. It uses the same external load center as the Pentair IntelliChlors. I know this because I had an IntelliChlor 20 for many years before it died and was replaced with the iChlor 30 using the same load center.
I have connected the chlorinator load center over RS485 to the ET, and NJSPC to the ET as well. On the ET, I can see the salt level reported, and using the OCP screen I can set the pool output % level. In NJSPC, I can see the salt PPM, as well as the output % set by the OCP, but when adjusting the output % in NJSPC, it does not change on the chlorinator or on the OCP. Originally, when the chlorinator was auto-discovered, I had not set a model type in NJSPC and when attempting to change the output % I got an error like this thread. I went into settings, and could not find the iChlor 30 as a model listed, so I chose the IntelliChlor 20. Now I do not get the error, but as a mentioned, I cannot control the output % from NJSPC.
If you need a replay of the RS485 communication let me know, I can record me sending commands from NJSPC as well as setting the output % on the OCP so we can see the data being sent.
Thanks!
