Possible Causes

Incorrect schedule configuration, external control overriding local settings, corrupted program memory.

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No internal electrical work is required for programming, but do not open the drive with power on.

  • Check control mode: Verify whether the Sta-Rite pump is set to be controlled by its keypad or by an external automation system. If under external control, schedules must be set in the automation panel.
  • Review schedules: Go through each programmed speed and time period on the pump and correct any overlapping or disabled schedules.
  • Factory reset: Perform a factory reset of the pump’s programming per the manual, then re-enter desired speeds and times.
  • Test operation: Observe the pump over a full schedule cycle to confirm it changes speeds as programmed.
