Jandy VS FloPro with SpeedSet Controller Review and Overview

The Jandy SpeedSet controller is the next generation in VS pump control. It is the direct replacement for the Jandy JEP-R and it has many great new features.

It has a large display which comes in super handy while programming and adjusting the schedules. Compared to any pump display currently on the market the screen is 10x larger. If you don’t think the larger screen is a big deal, after using the SpeedSet you will wonder how you ever survived on those tiny slices of a screen on other pumps.

The FlyWheel has to be the best upgrade in my opinion. Those left, right, up, and down arrow keys are a real pain on most VS pumps. You can easily get lost in a menu and forget how to exit it. Not so with the FlyWheel. It is a dial that you spin and the menu items just scroll left or right and up or down depending on where you are in the menu. It takes about 5 seconds to get used to and after that, you will want it on every VS Pump.

I should mention that the SpeedSet controller can be ordered mounted on the Jandy VS FloPro, as well as their EPump and their VS PumpHP. You can get a wall-mount SpeedSet to replace an existing JEP-R as well. On the pump, you can turn the SpeedSet 4 different ways to position the screen perfectly for the best viewing. A simple counterclockwise twist is all you need to do.

On the bottom of the SpeedSet is Automation Pass-Through Wiring which allows you to connect an automated system and use the speedSet to bypass it when needed. It’s a smart extra that will make controlling the pump easy if say you need to add chlorine to a pool and need it to run for 3 hours. Simply hit the “Clean” button and that is all you need to do. Or if you want to clean the filter or pump basket, hit the “Stop” button. So no need to even open the outside automated panel.

When the top lid is closed the button bar is exposed. Not to worry the buttons are 100% waterproof. But this makes it super easy to tell if the pump is working. You can also hit a button without having to open the top of the SpeedSet. The button bar has
Stop – this turns the pump off indefinitely – lights up red.

Auto – This means the pump is in normal operation mode and will run the programmed schedule
Clean – You can set a specific run time and pump RPM and when you hit the “Clean” button it will go on for that set time and then automatically return to the programmed scheduled times. For example, you can set the “clean” button to run for “4 hours at 2800 RPM.

Buttons 1 and 2 – can also be programmed for a specific run time and speed. For example, if you wanted to use “1” as your spa button, you could put the valves in the spa position, hit “1” and program it to run for 2 hours at 3450 RPM. That way the spa gets the full RPM with a push of a button. The “2” can be programmed similarly. Then you have virtual buttons 3-8 which probably will never be used but they are there regardless. Virtual buttons 3-8 can be programmed the same way.
The SpeedSet can hold up to 10 programmed schedules. You probably will not need more than 3 but having more options is better. With the flywheel and the easy menu setups, programming a scheduled run time could not be easier.
