    Default Ballast Timers

    Tried to find the document on how to reset ballast timers and couldn't find it. I know its on it but does anyone have a how to video? I'm more of a visual learner!

    I would call or Email Spencer with Wake Makers, they used to have a write up possibly a video but I cannot locate it.

    If you don't have the digital screen that controls the timers let us know. There is a method using just the switches to set the timers.

    PM me with your email address if you want a printable copy of the above instructions. Smeckle didn't do a real good job scanning them.

    I do believe these instructions are included in the owners manuals which can be downloaded.

    modify fill times by size of sac...

    400 bags take ~4 minutes
    750 bags take ~8 minutes
    1100 bags take ~12 minutes

    I have the digital screen, but I don't have the options for ballast?

    Try the switch sequence posted by KRAK. It should work.

    To change the fill time of the ballast:

    1. Connect battery to the wiring with the 60 amp breaker.

    2. Disconnect power to the ballast control box by tripping the 60 amp breaker located by the battery.
    a. This will have to be done for programming each ballast control box. (Left rear ballast, Right rear ballast, and Front ballast)

    3. Reset the breaker

    4. Within 1 minute of resetting the breaker; toggle the ballast switch (of the fill time you want to change) FILL-OFF-EMPTY-OFF- FILL-OFF-EMPTY-OFF-FILL
    a. Stop with the switch toggled to FILL.
    b. This will enter ballast control box into programming mode.
    c. When the ballast control box goes into programming mode the pump will quit turning on.

    5. The LED on the ballast switch will blink to show current fill time.
    a. When counting blinks wait for the second blink cycle after the pause, blinking starts as soon as reprogramming has started and it is easy to miss the first few blinks.

    b. Refer to the timing chart to determine the current fill time based on the number of blinks.

    6. To ADD TIME to the fill time
    a. To add 30 secs, turn ballast switch to FILL then OFF.
    b. Number of blinks will increase by one each time the FILL - OFF is toggled.
    c. Add remaining number of toggles of FILL - OFF to get the desired number of blinks from the timing chart.
    d. End with the switch toggled to FILL to count the blinks.

    7. To REMOVE TIME from the fill time.
    a. To remove 30 secs, turn to OFF then DRAIN
    b. Number of blinks decreases by one each time the DRAIN - OFF is toggled.
    c. Add the remaining number of toggles of DRAIN - OFF to get the desired number of blinks from the timing chart.
    d. End with the switch toggled to FILL to count the blinks.

    8. When counting blinks wait for second blink cycle after the pause, blinking starts as soon as reprogramming has started and it is easy to miss the first few.

    9. When correct blinks are obtained, switch to OFF and wait 10 seconds to allow program to be set. This will now be stored in the AI unit.

    Rear bags – All boats = 4.5 minutes of fill time = 6 blinks

    LS – split tank = 2 minutes each side = 1 blink

    Front bags

    Moomba
    1) Outback V = 3 minutes of fill time = 3 blinks

    2) LS / LSV = 3 minutes of fill time = 3 blinks

    3) XLV = 4 minutes of fill time = 5 blinks

    Supra
    1) 20 SSV = 3 minutes of fill time = 3 blinks

    2) 21 V = 4 minutes of fill time = 5 blinks

    3) 22 SSV Walk-Thru = 3 minutes of fill time = 3 blinks

    4) 22 SSV Play-pen = 4 minutes of fill time = 5 blinks

    5) 24 SSV Walk-Thru = 3 minutes of fill time = 3 blinks

    6) 24 SSV Play-pen = 11 minutes of fill time = 19 blinks
