Feature 1 and 2
Feature 1 and Feature 2 are designed for "on demand" operation of water features, and cannot be pre-
programmed to start or stop at specific times. Feature 1(2) allow you to enter a flow rate for a water
feature, and to set the duration of time for which that feature will run. The water feature will run,
beginning at the moment you press the Feature 1(2) button, at the entered flow rate for the duration
specified. Feature 1(2) supercede all other features, and pressing the Feature 1(2) button will temporarily
deactivate all other features. After running the water feature for the specified duration, IntelliFlo will
revert to Filter Mode, if the IntelliFlo was in Filter Mode when the Feature 1(2) button was pressed, or
to Manual Mode, if IntelliFlo was in Manual Mode when the Feature 1(2) button was pressed. Feature
1(2) do not supercede Backwash Mode. If you wish to operate Feature 1 or 2 during backwashing, you
must first press the Start/Stop button to stop the backwashing operation already in progress. For more
information on Feature 1(2), see page 20.
Feature 3 -9
Feature 3 through Feature 9 are designed for pre-programmed operation of water features at fixed flow
rates. Feature 3-9 allow you to set a feature's flow rate, as well as Start and Stop times for the feature. The
Start and Stop times for Features 3-9 cannot overlap. Feature 3-9 operate only in Filter Mode.
M. O. Flo
The M. O. (Modulated Output) Flo feature is designed for any water features that require flow rates of
varying intensity. M.O. Flo allows you to set a target flow rate greater than , or less than, the flow rate
maintained by the current filter cycle. IntelliFlo will reach that target rate at intervals you set in the
"Interval Time" parameter in the M.O. Flo setting, and will maintain the target rate for the length of time
you enter in the "Set Run Time" parameter . M.O. Flo operates only during the filter cycles that you set
for Filter Mode.
Example:
You have installed a pool heating system that requires a flow rate of at least 12 m
to activate the system by tripping an internal pressures switch. However, based on the
parameters you set in Filter Mode for Turnovers Per Day and Cycles Per Day, IntelliFlo
calculates a flow rate of of 4 m
pressure switch and activate the heater.
