poolpump highoccupancy

Poolpump High Occupancy Command
Note: This command is only available if you are using a "Speck BaduEcoTouch" pump at your Vila. The pump should operate in high occupancy mode when there is a need for a higher flow rate, such as during pool treatments. This mode helps maintain optimal performance while still reducing running costs compared to traditional pumps.

Important: This command only works on your system if your pump has been "smartified" with an EcoTouchController.
