New spa owner and after a few months of ownership I think the Filter Mode is acting wacky. I have the following settings: FS_8AM, FD_4, FF_2, EP _1, ES _11PM, ED_8. (The LL setting is 1, factory set and I have not tried changing it.) So my expectation is that at 8AM the filter will start running for 4 hours and then 12 hours later run again at 8pm. The spa will go into eco. mode (EP1) at 11pm until 9AM. The first day when I set it everything ran as expected but the next day the filter only ran for 15mins at 8AM and I waited 90min to see if it was just slow before I reset the start time to 10am and then the filter mode was kicked off normally. Researching the issue and I came across a Gecko FAQ that stated that the Filter mode will not run if the temp. delta was more that 2 degrees from the set temperature. In this case the set temp was 80 but the water was 84. So prior to changing the start time to 10am i changed the temp to 83 and waited 10-15m to see if that would register and start the cycle but it didn't work. (not sure which gecko model this refers to). Attached some pics of the Gecko and top controller (pay no attention to the temp. it was after filling it a few days ago). Thoughts?
