4. NOTES ON “STAND-BY” MODE AND FAIL-SAFE
There is no need to consider tting a separate On / Off switch, since the pump fea-
tures an integral “stand-by” mode; in this state the current drain is very much lower
than the self-discharge rate of any battery.
As soon as the control signal is switched off (i.e. receiver off), the LED starts to
ash red / green, and after two seconds the unit switches automatically to “stand-
by” mode. The pump switches itself on again automatically as soon as a valid sig-
nal is present (i.e. receiver on).
Fail-safe function: if there is a loss of signal while the pump is switched on and
pumping, the unit instantly switches itself off. If the signal remains ab-sent for lon-
ger than two seconds, the pump reverts to “stand-by” mode, as described above.
