Upgrade to which device?

Using tabs haven’t tested yet been super busy opening up everyone else’s pool and neglecting my own….

check for a comm wire either on LV1-LV4. Make sure the heater displays BO when operating from the Omni. Under config menu from the Omni check that the correct relay is selected for the heater. Inspect the comm wire for any breaks. After putting into BO make sure the heater is actually set to...
