security, climate, irrigation and more. For more information about using these interfaces, refer to the IntelliTouch
ScreenLogic® Interface Accessory Kits on page 5.
IntelliTouch System
An IntelliTouch system can include five (5) to 40 high voltage relays circuits that can be used to control any
combination of pumps, lights, water features. A maximum of ten (10) relays can be housed in an IntelliTouch
Load Center or Power Center. Up to three (3) Load Centers or Power Centers can be connected to a main
Load Center for a maximum of 40 relays. User-configurable circuits can be used to control equipment. The
“Feature Macro” circuits feature allows any number of circuits to be combined and controlled by a single
button.
An optional IntelliTouch Dimmer Module (P/N 520406) can be installed for use to dim any high voltage
incandescent light such as Pentair Water Pool and Spa® Amerlite® and Pentair Water Pool and Spa® SpaBrite
lights. The dimmer module supports multiple lights from 100 watts up to 1,000 watts and installs in a standard
relay location. Any number of dimmers (up to 10 maximum) may be used with a maximum combined load of
4,000 watt in a single Load Center.
In the home
The IntelliTouch system can utilize multiple wired and wireless controllers including the wired in-wall touch
screen, indoor control panel and the wireless MobileTouch® wireless remote control panel. Your existing home
PC can also be used to control the IntelliTouch system via the ScreenLogic interfaces. A maximum of four (4)
ScreenLogic interfaces can be used, for example, four tablets or four in-wall Touch Screen’s, or four PC’s in
any combination.
Around the pool
The IntelliTouch iS10, SpaCommand™ or iS4 spa-side remote provide control buttons for various pool and spa
functions, including IntelliFlo® VF 3050, IntelliFlo VS 3050, IntelliFlo VS+SVRS and IntelliFlo VSF +SVRS

Setting ON/OFF Times for Equipment (PROGRAM)
You can create schedules to automatically run equipment like pool filtration or lights. Any circuit can be set to
switch on and off on every day of the week. When a relay is switched on manually, it remains on until you either
switch it off manually, or the next time the relay is scheduled to be switched off. For example, if the filter pump or
any circuit is scheduled to run from 9AM to 4 PM and the programmed schedule is turned OFF at 1:00 PM and
then turned on at 1:10 PM, the circuit will turn OFF at its programmed OFF time of 4:00 PM. But if the circuit is
turned on after 4:00 PM, the factory set Egg Timer of 12 hours is now engaged. So if the circuit was turned on at
6:00 PM that circuit will turn off at 6:00 AM (12 hours later). If the circuit was turned ON at 5:00 PM and
because a programmed OFF time had been set to turn off at 4:00 PM, the circuit would operate for 11 hours. A
spa or pool program can be overridden using the Spa or Pool button to switch the circuit on.
From the “Program” screen, you can schedule IntelliTouch to automatically run equipment like pool filtration or
lights. Any circuit (auxiliary, feature, or macro) can be scheduled to switch on and off at a specific time and on a
any day(s) of the week. Up to 99 total programs may be created for all circuits combined.
Schedule a program: The “Program” screen displays a program counter in the upper right (1/0) side of the
screen. This counter indicates the current number of scheduled programs. After setting the start and stop time and
the day(s) to run the first scheduled program, press Save to view the first program (1/1) and increment the counter
to next program. To access the next program screen, press the button next to the counter label (2/1). Set the start
and stop time and the day(s) to run the second scheduled program (2/1). Repeat this process to enter another
program. For example, 2/3 indicates that you are viewing program 2 of 3 total programs saved for that circuit. 4/
3 indicates that you are creating program 4 but only 3 are currently saved. After pressing the Save button, the
counter updates to 4/4. Press the button to the right of the label counter to step through each program first then
display the unsaved program screen. The following describes how to program equipment to run the pool filtration
system. This process is the same for any installed equipment listed on the screen.

IntelliChlor® Salt Chlorine Generator
(Accessory)
The IntelliChlor salt chlorinator uses a process known as electrolysis
to produce Sodium Hypochlorite (liquid chlorine) from a low
concentration of salt added to the pool water. Hypochlorite kills
bacteria, oxidizes organic material, and kills algae, then reverts back
to salt. IntelliChlor then reuses the salt and the process starts over
again. The IntelliChlor system is comprised of the Power Center and
Electrolytic Cell. The IntelliChlor Electronic Chlorine Generator
system consists of one or more of the following:
IntelliChlor with Power Center
Power Center (P/N 520556): Provides power and controls communication to and from the IntelliChlor cell.
IC 20 Cell (P/N 520554): Designed for pools up to 20,000 U.S. gallons (75,000 liters). The cell will produce
the equivalent of 0.70 pounds of pure chlorine per 24 hours of continuous pool pump run time. The IC20 cell
uses two terminal blades and five bi-polar blades.
IC 40 Cell (P/N 520555): Designed for pools up to 40,000 U.S. gallons (150,000 liters). The cell will
produce the equivalent of 1.40 pounds of pure chlorine per 24 hours of continuous pool pump run time. The cell
uses three terminal blades and ten bi-polar blades.
IC 60 Cell (P/N 521105): Designed for pools up to 60,000 U.S. gallons (227,124 liters). The cell will produce
the equivalent of 2 lbs. of pure chlorine per 24 hours of continuous pool pump run time. The IC60 cell uses a
total of 15 blades (three terminal and twelve bi-polar blades).
IntelliChlor “dummy” bypass cell (P/N 520588): Recommended for new pool start-up.

Adding an iS10 Spa-Side Remote Controller
Up to four iS10 Spa-Side remote controllers can be installed to allow each iS10 to operate different functions
or to the same functions at different locations. Each iS10 can be assigned as number 1, 2, 3, or 4. If a different
number is not assigned to each installed iS10, then all iS10’s are assigned as number iS1. This is useful if you
wish to have the same functions available at different iS10 locations.
The following steps describe how to manually assign each iS10 a number 2, 3, or 4 as required.
Note: If the first iS10 was installed with the main Load Center or Power Center, it will automatically be
assigned as number IS1. Other additional iS10 remotes need to be manually assigned.
To assign additional iS10 remotes as iS2, iS3, or iS4:
1. On the IntelliTouch Outdoor Control Panel, press the Reset button, then press the 1 button. The three (3)
System Control LEDs will start flashing.
2. On the iS10 remote, press the bottom part of the “peanut shaped” toggle switch and the 1 button at the same
time (while the Outdoor Control Panel LEDs are flashing).
3. SHA will be displayed on the iS10 temperature display. The four red iS10 LEDs adjacent to the in-line
buttons will be lit.
4. Assign the iS10 to one of the following:
• If this is the second iS10, press button #2. The temperature display reads IS2.
• If this is the third iS10, press button #3. The temperature display reads IS3.
• If this is the fourth iS10, press button #4. The temperature display reads IS4.
5. The two iS10 red toggle switch LEDs will start to flash.
6. On the Outdoor Control Panel, press the Reset button. The iS10 LEDs will stop flashing. Repeat steps 1-4
for additional iS10 remotes. To configure the iS10 buttons, see page 78.
Note: To disable or enable the iS10 Spa-Side Remote from the Indoor Control Panel or
MobileTouch wireless control panel, refer to “Disable/Enable iS10 and iS4 Spa-Side Remote,” on

Assigning a function to an auxiliary circuit allows certain type of equipment to operate in a specific way. For
example, when setting up an automatic pool cleaner pump, you would assign the circuit function to MASTER
CLEANER. With this "Cleaner" logic, when the circuit is switched on the cleaner pump would force the filter
pump on, and start the cleaner pump after a delay of five (5) minutes. The cleaner pump would automatically
shut off whenever the spa and solar is switched on with the cleaner pump (after a delay of five (5) minutes) if
energy from the solar is required.
Freeze Protection
Freeze protection switches a circuit on if the outdoor air temperature sensor detects the temperature is getting
close to freezing (below 36° F (2 ° C). The system switches on all circuits that have been assigned freeze
protection, and switches on the filter pump to circulate water throughout the system for 15 minutes to stop the
pipes from freezing. This is especially important for a pool and spa combination (dual body shared equipment).
If freeze protection is set to both the spa and pool circuits, the filter pump switches on and the pool and spa
valves alternate every 15 minutes to keep the water moving through both the pool and spa. This process
continues until the freeze condition is over.

Setting up Lighting Options (Color Swim and Color Set) - Requires use of at
least two SAm and/or SAL and/or Fiberworks Lighting products controlled by separate AUX circuits
There can be up to 12 light circuits on the main Lights screen. From this screen you can activate the “Color
Swim” and Color Set” special lighting features. These special features each must have their own relay and
separate circuits.
Color Swim and Color Set
Although the same screen is used to program the Color Swim and Color Set features, these two special lighting
effects operate independently of each other. It may take up to a minute or more for Color Swim or Color Set to
operate as programmed, depending on what kind of light you are activating and what state it was in when the
effect was activated.
• Color Swim - Allows any combination of up to 12 SAm, SAL, and/or FIBERworks lighting circuits to be
preset to transition through colors in sequence, giving the appearance of the colors swimming across the
water. The delay in sequencing each light can be adjusted to customize the display for your pool. This feature
requires the use of at least two SAm, SAL, and/or FIBERworks lighting products controlled by separate
AUX circuits and relays.
• Color Set - Allows any combination of up to 12 SAm, SAL, and/or FIBERworks lighting circuits to be
preset to specific colors. For example, you can set the colors for red, white, and blue, or red and green.
• Sync - Switches all color changing lights ON to synchronize their colors.
• Smart Start (SS_Yes and SS_No) - The Smart Start feature allows light circuits that are programmed to switch
on at a specific time, automatically begin changing their colors. For more information see page 15.
Setting up Color Swim and Color Set with SAm, SAL, or FIBER
works
Both the Color Swim and Color Set feature can be configured and operated from the Lights screen, but
operate independently of each other. Depending on what kind of light is being switched on and what state it was
in when the lighting effect was activated, it may take up to a minute or more for Color Swim or Color Set to
operate as programmed. The Color Swim feature creates the illusion of bands of colors moving through the
water. This is accomplished by switching on each light with a specific color in a specified order at different time
intervals. The order and time delay between lights can be mixed and matched to create many different effects.
For example, colors moving left to right, one body of water to another, from the middle outward, etc.
To assign light circuits to the Lights screen:
Before Starting: Be sure the auxiliary circuits that control the lights have been assigned names. Then verify that
SAm and SAL lights have been assigned in the “CIRCUIT FUNCTIONS” as SAM and SAL lights. If
FIBERworks lighting is being used, it also has to be set up as a PHOTON GENERATOR for the circuit
controlling the light bulb, and COLOR WHEEL for the circuit controlling the color wheel (see page 41).
Setting up Color Swim and Color Set lights
The following steps (see next page) describes how to setup an AUX circuit to control the Color Swim and
Color Set lighting features. The first step is to assign the circuit light function an auxiliary relay circuit (AUX 1),
then assign the circuit name for that light circuit. The light circuit name will appear on the main screen. Each light
(SAM or SAL) must also be assigned a circuit function. If the circuit function has been assigned, start at Step 5
(see next page).

IntelliFlo VF 3050, VS 3050, VS+SVRS, VSF+SVRS Pump Setup
Setting up IntelliFlo
The IntelliFlo pump can be remotely controlled by an IntelliTouch system using the two-wire 50 foot RS-485
communication cable (P/N 350122). IntelliFlo operations can be adjusted from the IntelliTouch indoor control
panel or MobileTouch wireless remote. For more information refer to the following manuals: IntelliFlo VF 3050
(P/N 350075), IntelliFlo VS 3050 (P/N 357269), IntelliFlo VSF+SVRS (P/N 351420)
How many pumps will IntelliTouch support?
IntelliTouch can support up to eight IntelliFlo VF and four IntelliFlo VS pumps in any combination with up to
eight GPMs or RPMs per pump. For example pumps can be connected to IntelliTouch as follows:
• 8 IntelliFlo VF
• 7 IntelliFlo VF + 1 IntelliFlo VS (or VS+SVRS or VSF +SVRS)
• 5 IntelliFlo VF + 3 IntelliFlo VS (or VS+SVRS or VSF +SVRS
• 4 IntelliFlo VF + 4 IntelliFlo VS (or VS+SVRS or VSF +SVRS (or only 4 IntelliFlo VS pumps)
Connecting power to an IntelliFlo pump
The IntelliFlo pump is designed to be permanently connected to its power source. Typically the pump receives
power directly from the circuit breaker. No contactor or motor starter is required. The drive controls the
starting and stopping of the pump. If the IntelliFlo pump is connected to an automation system, such as the
IntelliTouch automation system, the drive must be powered up to receive and respond to the RS-485 serial
communication from the automation system. However, the pump can be operated in “stand-alone” mode,
starting and stopping when power is applied or removed. When the drive powers up it will return to the mode
and run status that it was in when power was removed. This setup maybe appropriate if you need to use existing
relays or timers.
Assigning an IntelliFlo VF 3050 pump address
Before assigning a pump address in the IntelliTouch indoor control panel, first set the address on
the pump itself. If there is only one pump, it is always seen as pump #1 by IntelliTouch. In this
case you do not need to set the pump address. When using multiple IntelliFlo pumps with
IntelliTouch you need to assign an address to each pump. The address can be set to #1, #2, #3,

NOTE: INTELLIFLO AND CLEANER INTERLOCK: In order to safguard the IntelliFlo pump and other
equipment such as a pressure side cleaner booster pump, IntelliTouch monitors the main pump (if it is an
IntelliFlo). If the pump stops, IntelliTouch will delay the cleaner function. This may take as much as 30 seconds.
IntelliTouch will hold the cleaner off until the pump is running again. When the pump is running again IntelliTouch
will restart the cleaner delay, as if it was just starting to insure water in the plumbing.
IntelliTouch requires a bit more delay since the circulation pump may be on any address, e.g. #5, if there are
four IntelliFlo VS pumps at 1 -4, and a VF at #5. So by default no pump is assigned. When you go into the menu
“Circuit Functions” (see page 39, Menu>Setup>Advanced>Circuit Functions), if you assign a circuit as “Master
Cleaner” an extra line will appear at the bottom of the screen. You can then select NONE if you don't have or
want an IntelliFlo interlocked, or numbers 1 - 8 to identify the main circulation pump.
NOTE: INTELLIFLO “FREEZE” PROTECTION - If the IntelliFlo pump is on due to a freeze condition (not
switch on from a relay circuit state), and if a freeze speed/flow is set in IntelliTouch, this setting takes priority
even if the previous setting is lower than the default circuit speed. If no “freeze” protection is set, the pump will
be forced on at the default circuit speed/flow. Any programmed or manual operation that actually switches on a
circuit, will cause the pump to run at that speed if it is higher.
NOTE: INTELLIFLO IN “SERVICE MODE” - The IntelliFlo pump will STOP
when IntelliTouch is in ‘Service” mode. The pump will not stop if the communication cable is not connected or
due to the pump’s firmware.
NOTE: INTELLIFLO VF PUMPS - If the IntelliFlo VF pump is just starting (requiring a prime) and SOLAR is
available, solar will be delayed for five (5) minutes to allow the pump to prime. This only applies for IntelliFlo
pump(s) assigned as to a “pool” pump.

Priming parameters
To “prime” a pump means filling the pump and suction pipe with water. This process evacuates the air from all
the suction lines and the pump. It may take several minutes to prime depending on the depth of water, pipe size
and length. It is easier to prime a pump if you allow all the air to escape from the pump and pipes. The water
cannot enter unless the air can escape. Pumps do not hold prime, the pool piping system has that task. Priming
is a function used every time the motor is started with a flow as reference. The “Priming Flow” function ensures
the proper operation of the pump. The “System Priming Time” function ensures proper operation of the whole
pool system. When the pump is priming, the control panel LCD displays “Priming” and then for a moment
displays “Primed” when priming is complete.

IntelliFlo VF 3050 pump setup (Continued)
Backwash parameters
When the pump detects that the filter differential pressure (10 PSI difference) has increased and is now at the
“Clean Filter” pressure, IntelliTouch displays an alert message. This means that the filter must be cleaned
(backwashed) to reduce the pressure. To do this, the pump must be stopped and the IntelliTouch outdoor
control panel must be in “Service” mode (press the Auto button and select “Service” mode. To start the
backwash flow operation, press the Start/Stop button on IntelliFlo, then press the Backwash button. The pump
will run the preset cycle time and preset flow GPM). The flow will be adjustable to accommodate the specific
filter backwash flow requirement. After the backwash cycle is finished, the “Rinse” cycle with the preset
duration time will be executed. After these cycles have been completed or if the Start/Stop button is pressed to
stop the process, the filter status will be recalculated and the zero-pressure measured when Filter mode is
operated again.
When using cartridge filters the backwash cycle must be performed when cleaning or replacing filters. This helps
the IntelliFlo reset its zero head pressure level. If you are charging a DE system, charge the system first during a
normal running cycle. After the filter is charged, run the pump in backwash mode with the filter valve in the filter
position to reset the % clean filter status. Then run the pump in filter mode.
Note: IntelliFlo will ramp up to full speed if necessary to achieve the commanded flow. Be sure that the
system can withstand the resultant pressures.

Watts:
To calculate a system’s “Continuous Watts” use the following formula:
Amps X Volts X Power Factor = Continuous Watts
- 1 HP E+ WhisperFlo = 7.4 amps X (230 Volt) X .90 PF = 1532 watts
- 1 HP Max – E – Pro = 8.0 amps X (230 Volt) X .87 PF = 1600 watts
Once watts are computed, convert watts to kilowatts (kilo is 1000) and multiply this number by kilowatt/hour cost.
- 1 watt = .01 Kilowatt
- 100 watts = .1 Kilowatt
- 1000 watts = 1 Kilowatt
- 1 HP E+ WhisperFlo 1532 watts or 1.532 Kilowatt x $.08 = $.122 per hour
- 1 HP Max-E-Pro 1600 watts or 1.600 Kilowatt x $.08 = $.128 per hour
The IntelliFlo does not require calculation for continuous watts since it is displayed on the screen in all modes. Just
simply take the watts published on the screen, convert to kilowatts, and multiply by the kilowatt hour. The formula is:
210 watts = .210 kilowatt X $.08 = $.016 per hour
Remember to also consider the amount of water moved for the cost incurred (Water to Wire Efficiency). The IntelliFlo
cannot be matched in today’s industry for flow versus continuous watts at any speed by any other pump in pool. The
Filter mode and flow control further assists in cost saving by always allowing the pump to do the least amount of work
at all times.
Pressure Status 0%:
Displays the current filter status in percentage value. The higher the percent value the nearer the filter will require a

IntelliFlo VS 3050 and VSF+SVRS Pump Setup
Setting up IntelliFlo VS 3050 and VSF+SVRS
IntelliFlo VS 3050 and VSF+SVRS pump speed can be remotely controlled an IntelliTouch system using a
two-wire 50 foot RS-485 communication cable (P/N 350122 ) provided with the pump. The IntelliFlo VS
3050 and VSF +SVRS pump speed can be adjusted from the IntelliTouch Indoor Control Panel to run at any
speed between 400 RPM to 3450 RPM with preset speeds of 750, 1500, 2350, and 3110 RPM. For more
information refer to the IntelliFlo VS Installation and User’s Guide (P/N 357269) and the IntelliFlo and

Assigning an IntelliFlo VS 3050 pump address
Before assigning a pump address in the IntelliTouch indoor control panel, first set the address on the pump
itself. If there is only one pump, it is always seen as pump #1 by IntelliTouch. In this case you do not need to
set the pump address. When using multiple IntelliFlo VS 3050 pumps with IntelliTouch you need to assign an
address to each pump. The address can be set to #1, #2, #3, or #4. The address set at the pump must match
the IntelliFlo pump number selected in the IntelliTouch indoor control panel.
Note: IntelliFlo pumps cannot be connected in series with other pumps.
Check valves must be used when a pump is used in parallel with other pumps.

1. Be sure that the pump is powered on and the green power LED is on.
2. Press the Stop buttons to stop the pump.
3. Press and hold both the Start and Stop buttons until the red LED
will starts flashing, then press one of the four speed buttons (1-4) to
select which address to assign the pump. For example, if you are
assigning the pump as pump #1, then press Speed button number 1.
4. Press and hold both the Start and Stop buttons to save the address.
Repeat the process for the other pumps.
Assigning an IntelliFlo VSF +SVRS pump address
To assign an IntelliFlo VSF +SVRS pump address (1-16):

IntelliFlo VS 3050 Speed buttons (1-4)
NOTE: INTELLIFLO “FREEZE”
PROTECTION - If the IntelliFlo pump
is on due to a freeze condition (not
switch on from a relay circuit), and if a
freeze speed is set in IntelliTouch, this
setting takes priority even if the
previous setting is lower than the
default circuit speed. If no “freeze”
protection is set, the pump will be
forced on at the default circuit speed.
Any programmed or manual operation
that actually switches on a circuit, will
cause the pump to run at that speed if
it is higher.

After you have assigned the pump address on the IntelliFlo VS 3050 and VSF +SVRS pump (see previous
page), assign the pump type being used and the pump address in the IntelliTouch “Equipment” screen. When
using a single IntelliFlo VS 3050 or VSF +SVRS pump for remote control with IntelliTouch, the default address
is always pump #1. When using multiple IntelliFlo VS 3050 and VSF +SVRS pumps with IntelliTouch assign an
address to each pump. For IntelliFlo VS 3050 set the address to #1, #2, #3 or #4. For IntelliFlo VSF +SVRS
set the address from #1-#8. The address set at the pump must match the IntelliFlo pump number selected in the
“Equipment” screen. This is also where you select the pump type being used and its address (IntelliFlo VF 3050
#1, IntelliFlo VS 3050 #2, IntelliFlo VSF +SVRS #3 etc.).

RPM: Displays the current flow rate for the pump in RPM. Note: For IntelliFlo VSF+SVRS pump, when in RPM mode
GPM = 0.
Watts: To calculate a system’s “Continuous Watts” use the following formula:
Amps X Volts X Power Factor = Continuous Watts
- 1 HP E+ WhisperFlo = 7.4 amps X (230 Volt) X .90 PF = 1532 watts
- 1 HP Max – E – Pro = 8.0 amps X (230 Volt) X .87 PF = 1600 watts
Once watts are computed, convert watts to kilowatts (kilo is 1000) and multiply this number by kilowatt/hour cost.
- 1 watt = .01 Kilowatt
- 100 watts = .1 Kilowatt
- 1000 watts = 1 Kilowatt
- 1 HP E+ WhisperFlo 1532 watts or 1.532 Kilowatt x $.08 = $.122 per hour
- 1 HP Max-E-Pro 1600 watts or 1.600 Kilowatt x $.08 = $.128 per hour
The IntelliFlo does not require calculation for continuous watts since it is displayed on the screen in all modes. Just
simply take the watts published on the screen, convert to kilowatts, and multiply by the kilowatt hour. The formula is:
210 watts = .210 kilowatt X $.08 = $.016 per hour
Remember to also consider the amount of water moved for the cost incurred (Water to Wire Efficiency). The IntelliFlo
cannot be matched in today’s industry for flow versus continuous watts at any speed by any other pump in pool. The
Filter mode and flow control further assists in cost saving by always allowing the pump to do the least amount of work
at all times.
Communication Status: Displays the pump communication and operating status.

and chlorine or bromine for the correct sanitization and pH balance. IntelliChem operates with or without a salt
chlorine generator to provide a self-replenishing supply of chlorine generated from salt. For more information,
refer to the IntelliChem Installation and User’s Guide (P/N 521363). From the IntelliChem screens you can

following selections to adjust the levels/values: Calcium Hardness: Recommended
range is 200-400 ppm. Levels should be tested weekly. Cyanuric Acid: Stabilizes
chlorine in water from UV degradation. When using the IntelliChlor SCG, cyanuric acid
level should be maintained between 50-80 ppm. Total Alkalinity: APSP’s recommended
ideal range for is 80 to 120 ppm for “gunite” and concrete pools and 125-170 ppm for
painted, vinyl, and fiberglass pools. Test levels weekly and adjust according to your pool
professional’s recommendations.
Saturation Index: The saturation Index displays IDEAL (Optimum levels), CORROSIVE
(pH too low) or SCALING (pH too high). For ideal Saturation Index levels and
recommended pool chemistry, refer to the following values: pH range: 7.2 to 7. ORP
range: 650 to 750. Calcium Hardness: 200 - 500 ppm. Cyanuric Acid/Stabilizer:
30-50 ppm. Total Alkanlinity: 80 to 120 ppm.
NOTE: Use a Test Kit (with fresh testing reagents) to measure the pH, alkalinity and
calcium hardness of the pool water. For greater accuracy, use the AcuCheck3 Test Kit to
measure pH, chlorine ppm, and alkalinity levels (P/N 7450001100). “Balanced” water
has proper levels of pH, Total Alkalinity and Calcium Hardness. This “balanced” water is
neither corrosive or scaling. The pH level number (0-14 with 7.0 being neutral) is the
scale of relative acidity or alkalinity. Be sure the pool chlorine level is balanced. Ideal
free chlorine level should be between 1.0 - 3.0 parts per million (ppm). Use the online
Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) calculator to diagnose the water balance in your pool or
the IntelliChem built-in LSI calculator. Refer to:http://www.pentairpool.com/pool-owner/
resources/calculators/langelier/ - A Saturation Index value of 0 indicates the water is
chemically in balance. If the Index is a minus (-) value, corrosive tendencies are
indicated. If the Index is a plus (+) value, scale-forming tendencies are indicated.
A Saturation Index value between +0.3 to -0.3 is considered satisfactory in a swimming
pool.

Master Spa/Pool (Heater Cool-Down) and Delays For Valves
Master Spa/Pool
This feature keeps the pump running for ten minutes after the heater is switched off to cool down the heaters header and
heat exchanger. Some heater models require this cool down period or damage will occur. This is sometime referred to
as the “Fireman Switch.” for example, If you are in the spa, and you switch it off. The IntelliTouch will return the valves
to “Pool” mode position. If the pool is running a cycle, or the Fireman switch (Master Spa/Pool Delay) is enabled,
colder water from the pool would be pumped into the spa as the valves turn. Note: If the pool is not running a cycle,
and the fireman switch is not enabled, the pump stops and no pool water would be pumped into the spa as the valves
turn back to pool.
Delay For Valves
This feature creates a 30 second PUMP OFF (forced) period anytime the valves rotate. Either from pool
to spa, or spa to pool. When you switch the spa off, even if the pool is running a cycle or the fireman switch is enabled,
it stops the pump for 30 seconds while the valves turn, so colder water from the pool will not enter the spa. This feature
prevents cold water entering the spa when you start the spa, so less heating is needed. It also stops the pump when the
system is changing from pool to spa or back again in Freeze mode.

Delay Cancel Feature
For convenience, on a one time basis, the DELAY CANCEL feature will cancel the following safety delays
which can be set up in the IntelliTouch system. Please note there is generally not a need to cancel any of these
delays except for servicing or testing the system.
• Heater Cool-Down Delay Cancel: Shuts Filter Pump off immediately.
• 2-Speed Filter Pump 5 minute START on HIGH SPEED Delay Cancel: Shifts pump to low speed.
• Automatic Pool Cleaner START Delay: Starts Cleaner Pump immediately. Normally there is a delay in
which the filter pump first runs for 5 minutes before the cleaner pump starts.
• Automatic Pool Cleaner-SOLAR Delay: Allows Cleaner Pump to run even though solar delay has shut it
off for 5 minutes.
About the Heater Cool-down Cycle and Delay Cancel
Some heaters require a cool-down cycle before being turned off. This can be accomplished with a SET UP
procedure in the IntelliTouch system which runs the filter pump an additional ten minutes to dissipate residual
heat built up inside the heater combustion chamber. The DELAY CANCEL feature is mainly for use by service
technicians when they want to shut the filter pump off immediately, and know the heater has not been running.
IMPORTANT: Heaters manufactured by Pentair Water Pool and Spa® do not require this cool-down period
and do not need the delay to be set up.

Configuring Valve Actuators (Controlled by AUX or Feature Circuit)
All IntelliTouch systems can drive two auxiliary valve actuators (A and B) for applications such as solar heating
and water features. With the addition of the Valve Module (P/N 520285), installed in the Load Center or
Power Center, the system will accommodate up to three additional actuators (C, D, and E). An AUX circuit or
FEATURE circuit can control auxiliary valve actuators. By using Feature circuits to control valve actuators, you
can conserve your AUX circuits for high voltage relays for controlling pumps and lights. Use Macros to couple
valve actuators with AUX circuits for specific applications.
Note: All Personality boards (including i5x and i10x) has two valve outputs A & B. With the addition of
the Valve Module (P/N 520285) board that connects to the Personality board, three additional valve
operators can be added to the system.

Feature Circuits
Feature Circuits provide a way to control equipment which is not controlled by an AUX circuit. Typically AUX
circuits are used for high voltage equipment such as pumps and lights, whereas Feature Circuits are used for
valve actuators. However, Feature Circuits can go beyond this definition, and be used in other creative ways.
For example, Feature Circuits may be used to create a Macro circuit in which several other circuits can be
switched on or off with the same button. This is accomplished by first choosing a name for your Macro and
assigning that name to a Feature Circuit. There is a limit of 10 Feature Circuits in the system.
• Valve Actuators - Feature Circuits may be assigned for controlling up to five valve actuators per Load
Center, which requires the installation of the optional Valve Module P/N 520285 that include three actuators
outputs (C, D, and E) per Load Center. For more information about configuring valve actuators, refer to
page 70.
• 2-Speed Pump - A Feature Circuit may be assigned as a way to turn a 2-speed Filter Pump to high speed.
• Spa Spillway - A Feature Circuit may be assigned to activate the Spa Spillway effect, where in a pool/spa
combination, all of the pool water can be diverted to the spa then spill back into the pool.

Creating a Macro Circuit
A Macro circuit allows multiple combined circuits that can be switched on or off from a single button. For
example, a Macro circuit can be assign to one button to switch on the spa, spa light, fountain, fountain light, and
patio lights. The Macro circuit name (or custom name) can be added to the main list of “IntelliTouch circuit
names” (see page 37). A Macro circuit also has the capability to switch a circuit off. For example, a Macro
circuit named “SPA PARTY,” if you wanted a spa fountain not to be on when spa is on (because it could put
cold water in the spa), it can be set up in the Macro to automatically switch off when “SPA PARTY” is switched
on. An “OFF” Macro can also be used to switch any number of lights off with one button.
Note: Macros may not be set as Dimmers although they can turn on light dimming circuits.
To create a macro circuit, go to the CIRCUIT MACRO screen.

Calibrating Temperature Sensors
The IntelliTouch system includes two temperature sensors (10 kΩ) for water and ambient air temperature. You
can add a third sensor for controlling solar heating systems. Note: The i10+3D system includes three sensors.
Generally, these sensors are accurate and you do not have to calibrate them. However, long plumbing runs and
water features cause temperatures at a body of water to be different from the temperature sensor reading. You
can manually recalibrate the sensors to adjust for this.
Getting There
MENU SETUP ADVANCED CALIBRATE
Before you start, you need an accurate all weather thermometer. If you are calibrating the air sensor, wait until
the sensor is not in direct sunlight. Be sure that the air sensors are located in the shade for accurate freeze
protection.
To calibrate the water and air sensors, go to the Calibrate screen.
For i10+3D systems, you will see Spa Temp, Pool Temp, and Air Temp. Calibrate the spa and pool water
temperatures the same way as described below for the water sensor. If you have an i5+3, i5S+3, i7+3, or i9+3
system, there is a water sensor and an air sensor. Make sure to locate the air sensor in the shade for accurate
readings. Make sure to locate the solar sensor in the sun for accurate readings.
To calibrate the water sensor:
1. Switch on the spa or pool filter pump.
2. Place the thermometer in the spa or pool, depending on the system model number. For shared equipment, you
only need to calibrate one body of water.
3. Take an accurate temperature reading.
4. At the Indoor Control Panel, press the buttons next to the Water Temp label to adjust the temperature up or
down. If you have an i10+3D repeat the above for the pool. The i10+3D has three sensors, one each for the
spa and pool water and one for the air temperature. For the Solar option there will be one sensor for the pool
solar, and one for the spa solar.
5. Press the Exit button when finished.
To calibrate the air sensor:
1. Place the thermometer next to the air sensor. The sensor is normally located near or under the Load Center
or Power Center enclosure, not inside the enclosure.
2. Take an accurate temperature reading in the shade.
3. At the Indoor Control Panel, press the buttons next to the Air Temp label to adjust the temperature up or
down.

System Worksheet Overview
System worksheets are provided to help you plan the system at start-up and to keep system records. Make
copies of each system worksheet (page 86 - 91) appropriate for the system. Use a unique one for each Load
Center or Power Center. Circle the Load Center or Power Center number on the top. Each worksheet is
divided into a Hardwired Connections and a Programmable Settings sections. The Hardwired Connections
section represents which relays, actuators, and heater have been plugged into the Personality board. Some
connections are mandatory for each system as shown on the work sheet. The Programmable Settings section
represents what functionality the circuit will have and from what Indoor Control Panel and/or MobileTouch
control panel they are set from.
In the left-side column, write-in temporary circuit names based on the capabilities you want the system to have.
For example: Spillway, Solar Heating, Cherub Fountain, etc. Eventually circuit names will be given to each of
these capabilities. Although duplicate names can be used, it is best to keep each one unique. Be sure to write
the circuit name on the work sheet that will have the hardwired connection.
Write down on the worksheet which Hardwired Connections (relay or valves) will be activated by the circuit. It
may be helpful to fill this out at the Load Center or Power Center where the circuits and associated equipment
may be quickly verified. Remember the following rules to assist in making marks:
• Assign no more than one relay connection to any auxiliary circuit (shown on Display 1 through 4) EXCEPT
for 2-Speed or Feature Circuits.
• Feature Circuits may have multiple relay connections if set up as a Macro.
• Feature Circuits may have multiple valves assigned to them and 2-Speed without being set up as a Macro and
with no other relay connection.
• Valves A-E may be assigned to the same auxiliary circuit as a relay connection.
• If one valve is to be turned on by more than one circuit, then it is suggested to assign a Feature Circuit to just
that valve. That valve and any combination of relay connections may be activated with Macros.
• If SOLAR relay connection is checked and SOLAR is NOT a heat pump, also check Valve A. Valve A may
not then be used with any other circuit. Valve A and the SOLAR relay are activated when solar heating is
enabled.
Write down Programmable Settings for each circuit, and what special Circuit Functions, if any, each circuit will
have. Circuit Functions may be assigned to any number of circuits (see page 39). If Spillway is checked, the
Intake and Return valves will turn to divert all the pool intake water to be returned to the spa. If “Floor
Cleaner” is checked, then one or more valves must also be checked to run the floor cleaner multi-port valves. If
no special function will be assigned check GENERIC.
Write-in any automatically timed programs you want for a circuit. Up to 99 total timed programs may be
assigned, but only three are presented on the work sheet. Indicate start times, stop times, countdown time
(called “EGG TIMER”), days to be active, and if a color changing light whether or not it should change colors
when turned on (SMART START).
Finally, indicate what circuits you want to appear on the Indoor Control Panel main screen and what circuits you
want activated by what buttons on a Spa-Side remote. The top buttons of the main screen are dedicated for
Spa and Pool modes, however the lower buttons numbered downward may be configured to display any
circuit.
Note: Keep the homeowner worksheets for future reference.
