1. Preparing Pool/Spa Water
General Water Chemistry
Salt is required only if you are using the chlorinator features on the Pro Logic Control. If you are NOT
using the chlorinator, it is recommended that you follow all of the other chemistry recommendations besides salt. Refer to the description of the Pro Logic configuration menu for information on enabling/disabling the chlorinator (see page 25).
Water Chemistry
The table below summarizes the levels that are recommended by the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP). The only special requirements for the Pro Logic are the salt level and stabilizer.
Saturation index
The saturation index (Si) relates to the calcium and alkalinity in the water and is an indicator of the pool
water “balance”. Your water is properly balanced if the Si is 0 ±0.2. If the Si is below -0.2, the water is
corrosive and plaster pool walls will be dissolved into the water . If the Si is above +0.2, scaling and
staining will occur. Use the chart below to determine the saturation index.
Si = pH + Ti + Ci + Ai - 12.

How to use: Measure pool pH, temperature, calcium hardness,
and total alkalinity. Use the chart above to determine Ti, Ci,and
Ai from your measurements. Insert values of pH, Ti, Ci and Ai
into the above equation. If Si equals .2 or more, scaling and
staining may occur. If Si equals -.2 or less corrosion or irritation
may occur .

The pool’ s chemistry must be balanced BEFORE activating the Pro Logic’s optional chlorinator function.
NOTE: If the pool does not have new water, add metal remover and non-copper based algaecide to the
pool, per manufacturer’s instructions. This ensures a quick, troublefree transfer to the Pro Logic system.
Salt (When using optional chlorinator function - requires AQL-CL chlorination kit)
Salt Level
Use the chart below to determine how much salt in pounds or (Kgs) should be added to reach the recommended levels. Use the equations on the following page (measurements are in feet/gallons and meters/
liters) if pool size is unknown.
The operating salt level is between 2700-3400 PPM (parts per million) with 3200 PPM being optimal.
Before adding any salt, test the salt level. This is especially important for retrofit installation to older pools
where all of the chlorine added to the pool over time is ending up as salt. If the level is low , determine the
number of gallons in the pool and add salt according to the chart below . A low salt level will reduce the
efficiency of the sanitization and result in low chlorine production. A high salt level can cause the Pro Logic
to stop chlorinating. The salt in your pool/spa is constantly recycled and the loss of salt throughout the
swimming season should be minimal. This loss is due primarily to the addition of water because of splashing, backwashing, or draining (because of rain). Salt is not lost due to evaporation.

T ype of Salt to Use
It is important to use only sodium chloride (NaCl) salt that is greater than 99.0% pure. This can be found
at most pool stores in 40-80 lb. bags labeled “for use in swimming pools”. Alternatively, use common food
quality or water softener salt that is at least 99.0% pure. It is also acceptable to use water conditioning salt
pellets, however, it will take longer for them to dissolve. Do not use rock salt, or salt with more than 1%
of yellow prussiate of soda, salt with anti-caking additives, or iodized salt.
How to Add Salt
For new plaster pools, wait 10-14 days before adding salt to allow the plaster to cure. T urn the circulating
pump on and add salt directly into the pool. Brush the salt around to speed up the dissolving process—do
not allow salt to pile up on the bottom of the pool. Run the filter pump for 24 hours with the suction coming
from the main drain (use pool vacuum if there is no main drain) to allow the salt to evenly disperse throughout the pool. The salt display may take 24 hours to respond to the change in salt concentration.
Always check stabilizer (cyanuric acid), when checking salt. These levels will most likely decline together .
Use the chart below to determine how much stabilizer must be added to raise the level to 80 ppm.

2. Mounting the Equipment
Pro Logic Control Center
The Pro Logic is contained in a raintight enclosure that is suitable for outdoor mounting. The control must
be mounted a minimum of 5 ft. (2 meters) horizontal distance from the pool/spa (or more, if local codes
require). The Control Center is designed to mount vertically on a flat surface with the knockouts facing
downward. Because the enclosure also acts as a heat sink (disperses heat from inside the box), it is
important not to block the four sides of the control. Do not mount the Pro Logic inside a panel or tightly
enclosed area.
When selecting a location, note that the standard cables supplied with the Turbo Cell, flow switch, temperature sensors, and valve actuators (if applicable) are all 15 ft. (5m) long.
PS-16 Expansion Unit
For the PS-16, the relays for Aux1-6 are contained in the Pro Logic Control Center. The relays for Aux714 are contained in the PS-16 Expansion Unit. V alve outputs 7-10, in the PS-16 Expansion Unit follow the
outputs of Aux7-10, respectively .
Temperature Sensors
Three sensors are included with the Pro Logic. A water sensor and an air sensor must be installed at all
times for proper operation. A solar sensor is required if the solar function or “dual equipment” is enabled.
Water Sensor
This sensor is used to measure the pool/spa temperature and is installed in the filtration plumbing after the
filter but before either the solar or conventionally fueled heaters—refer to the plumbing overview diagram.
1. Drill a 3/8” (10mm) diameter hole in the PVC piping and remove all chips and burrs.
2. Insert sensor until O-ring collar sits flush on the hole.
3. Position hose clamp over the sensor and gently tighten until O-ring makes an adequate seal. Do not
overtighten.
4. For maximum temperature accuracy , cover the sensor and 3” (6cm) of pipe on either side with
insulation and white paint.
Air Sensor
Mount the air sensor outdoors.
IMPORT ANT : Mount the air sensor out of direct sunlight.
!
Solar Sensor (Spa Sensor if using “Dual Equipment”)
For solar applications, mount the sensor near the solar collector array so that it is exposed to the same
sunlight as the collectors. For Dual Equipment applications, mount the sensor after the spa filter but before
the heater (see page 10). Use additional cable (20 AWG) if necessary .
Optional AQL-CL Chlorination Kit
The PL-PS-4/8/16 models require the use of the AQL-CL or AQL-CL-25FT chlorination kit when using
the chlorinator function. This kit contains a T urbo Cell, cell unions and flow switch. Refer to pages 12 and
20 for plumbing and wiring instructions.
Optional AQL-CHEM ORP and pH Sensing Kit
The AQL-CHEM is an ORP and pH sensing kit for the Pro Logic. When used with the AQL-CL, the Pro
Logic senses the pool's ORP and pH levels and generates the correct amount of chlorine to keep your pool
properly sanitized. Wiring and plumbing requirements for the AQL-CHEM should be considered before
installing the Pro Logic. Refer to the AQL-CHEM manual for specific installation information.
6
Optional Remote Controls
Goldline offers a variety of wired and wireless remote control options for the Pro Logic. Each model gives
you the ability to control your pool’s functions from a remote location, away from the Control Center .
Wired Remote Controls
Up to 3 wired remote controls can be installed. See “Electrical Wiring” (page 20) for instructions on
running the cable from the Pro Logic main unit to the remote control. Also refer to the remote’ s installation
instructions for more information.
AQL2-Wx-PS-x (x=4,8, or 16)
The AQL2-Wx-PS-x display/keypads must be mounted indoors or in a weather protected area (rain
should never hit the unit). Note that the number of outputs on the remote (“4”, “8” or “16”) must match the
outputs on the Pro Logic main control unit. The display/keypad is designed to mount onto a standard
electrical utility box (same box as a triple light switch, ideal for new construction) or can be mounted
directly onto any wall surface. When selecting a location, note that the wire to the Pro Logic main unit must
be less than 500’ long.
AQL-SS-6B-x, AQL-SS-D-x (x=W or B for White or Black)
The AQL-SS-6B and AQL-SS-D are double insulated, waterproof devices which are intended for installation at the water's edge. The remote controls come with an attached 150’ cable and are typically
installed at the tile-line of the spa wall, or in the deck, within arm's reach of a pool/spa occupant.
Wireless Remote Controls
A single Base Station must be installed on the Pro Logic in order to use any of the Goldline wireless remote
controls. With the Base S tation installed, there is no limit on the number of wireless remotes that can used.
The maximum distance between the wireless remotes and the base station on the Pro Logic main control
unit is 400 feet (120m) line of sight or 200 feet (60m) through walls, etc. If in doubt about the distance, test
operation before installing the remote.
Use AQL2-BASE-RF for all AQL2 wireless remote controls.
All wireless models require the user to run the “T each Wireless” routine in the Settings Menu. This infor-
mation can be found in the Pro Logic Operation Manual and the owner’s manual of each remote.
AQL2-Tx-RF-PS-x (x=4,8, or 16)
The AQL2-Tx-RF-PS-x are portable battery operated remote controls designed to be used in a weather
protected area (rain should never hit the unit). Both remotes come with a wall mounted power supply for
recharging the built-in batteries.
AQL2-SS-RF, AQL2-POD
The AQL2-SS-RF and AQL2-POD are waterproof portable remote controls that are designed to be
used in and around the pool/spa area. These units float and can be left in the pool/spa water for easy
access.
Optional Base Station
The AQL2-BASE-RF optional base station must be installed if any wireless remote control is used. T o
install the base station, remove the knockout on the upper left side of the Pro Logic main control unit, insert
the base station, and then tighten the nut from the inside. Also refer to the Base Station manual and the
diagram on page 21.

T urbo Cell (supplied with AQL-CL chlorination kit)
The Turbo Cell (used for chlorine generation) should be plumbed AFTER the filter and heater . If installed
on a pool/spa combination system, the cell should be plumbed BEFORE the pool/spa return valve in order
to allow proper chlorination of both the pool and the spa. Refer to plumbing diagram below:
12”
min
Flow switch before cell
Flow switch after cell
The cell may be mounted vertically or horizontally , and water can move in either direction through the cell.
Install using the 2" unions provided. Tighten unions BY HAND for a watertight seal. For systems with
1½“ plumbing use adaptors (provided by installer).
Flow Switch (supplied with AQL-CL chlorination kit)
The flow switch must be plumbed in the same section of plumbing as the Turbo Cell. The flow switch is a
safety device that ensures that water is flowing through the cell before the Pro Logic starts to generate
chlorine. Failure to properly install the flow switch can result in explosive gases accumulating in the pool
plumbing system.
IMPORTANT: There must be at least a 12" (30cm) straight pipe run befor e (upstream)
!
the flow switch. If the switch is plumbed after the cell, the cell can by counted as the 12" (30cm)
of straight pipe.
IMPORT ANT : To ensure proper operation, verify that the arr ow on the flow switch points
!
in the direction of water flow .
