I have a AQL-P-4 system that the time doesn't change so the system will not start automatically. Circit board or display?.

Hi Chuck, I'm thinking that the AQL-P-4 is just for display and serves as the on and off functions for the mechanics from the circuit board. I feel that the Circuit board is just starting to fail. I wish I could be of more help but keep an eye on the Salt level manually with a test kit and if it doesn't match what your circuit board/display, then the circuit board will probably need to be replaced.

I'm not sure, but I think this display will only show what the main board "tells" it to. If you go to the Hayward website, you can contact them and they will have contact information and probably be able to answer that. Also, call a pool store in your area and ask that question. They will answer it in hopes of getting the service call.

Here is my last post on this subject.Yesterday, I took a day off from work. Since turning off the alarm for just one day is a pain, I decided to simply turn off the Aluratek for the night, and then turn it back on in the morning. BIG MISTAKE. Now, it will not run. I get the startup "splash" screen for a few seconds, the screen goes blank, and then NOTHING. It is now just a $130 nightlight.Too late to send back. So, I will hack into it and find a better way to use it. If I can build some new code, I let others know.

Hello Christian, Hoping That You Are Doing Well. Yes; I Do Own This System Board And Was Going To Purchase This C.P.U. Buying This Board Was A Lot, YesturDay Just Recived My 2011 C.P.U. But Not That One; I Got The 4820. I Will Build This System ToDay. (Will UpDate Every-One When It's Finshed) Terrence

The only issue you might have is that A & B can only be programmed to run consecutively on the same day. You cannot have A on every day while only running B on Thursday. That is a problem for us as we are restricted on which days we can water lawns, while flowerbeds are unrestricted. We 're still looking for the perfect 2 zone system that allows completely independent programming of each zone.

Use the menu to set the date & time. As with all electronic devices it's weird. Trial & error is the way to go.

Good news Maritza, the PCBBF112S Control Board is the correct replacement for your system. Please contact us if you need further assistance in ordering your part.Thanks

No, Get Q-see or something which will be easy to configure and available support. This one has Zero support.

Bummer my circuit board that's just 5 years old and has been discontinued. I as others will be faced with replacing the whole unit. Jandy/ zodiac has had sensor issues and never told their customers of the defect. I have changed two in four years and now my curcut board failed and the whole system needs to be replaced. I'm switching to Hayward products

If you can't see the time and date then its definitely broken. My unit is bright enough to clearly display the time & date, even during daylight hours. There is only one level of "brightness"(the default).

It does display the time when not playing. I have not played with it enough to know if you can display it at other times.

If you read the insert it tells you how to set it for automatic time or just when you push green button. No date option that I could tell.

I don't think I have the "auto" setting on and mine still jumps ahead 3 hours every few days. Please tell me how you fixed that. Thanks!

Works as a clock fine - Tabata doesn't stop at 8 sets as it should just keeps going - you cannot stop it once it starts you have to unplug it to reset

My clock is also defective to the point of gaining or losing 3-4 hours per day. I have set it manually and automatically with no difference. Re-read the manual and no help. Since so many have reported this problem, I see no solution but to return it and buy another brand. BL

Yes, there is a system setting for that. Press [SRC] to enter STANDBY.Press the volume knob to enter [FUNCTION].Turn the volume knob to make a selection then press the knob at: CLOCK DISPLAY-ON: The clock time is shown on the display even when the unit is turned off.-OFF: No clock display when unit is off

Never figured it out, having the same problem you are. Mine has the wrong date and time. If find out let me know.

There are two sensors inside to the left and right (little round black things), slap some black polish on it. You can now manually control the time. Your Welcome :) Make sure it's unplugged when you do this.
