Overview
IMPORTANT: The installer must fill out the MultiWave Pool & Spa Control System
Worksheet for Programming at the back of this guide so that the controller can be
programmed.
The MultiWave Control System brings wireless control to a new level of simplicity. It features
push button control and a clear, easy-to-read backlit display panel. This manual provides
guidelines and instructions for installing the MultiWave Control System.

MultiWave Components
(PE953) Controller
The hand-held controller transmits user commands to the PE653 Receiving Device,
PE650 Receiving Device, or Z-Wave home control devices, and displays the status of the
installed equipment.
The unit, which features a backlit display, is water resistant and shock resistant. It requires
three (3) AA batteries with an expected battery life of one year.
When the components of a specic system are linked to a network, unique network ID
codes supplied by the receiver prevent unauthorized use of the system by neighboring
systems.
(PE653) Receiver
The PE653 receiver is the central hub of the MultiWave. It receives commands from the
PE953 controller to activate circuits. The receiver controls the ON/OFF operation of up to
ve circuits. It can also communicate with variable speed pumps. The receiver features
an internal supercapacitor to maintain data up to 8 hours in case of power loss.
(P5043ME) Expansion Module (Optional)
The P5043ME controls up to four 24 VAC water valve actuators. There are two dedicated
actuators for the pool and spa, one for a water feature (i.e. waterfall, fountain, slide) and
one for the solar heating/cooling feature.
In addition to the actuators, the P5043ME can control up to two heaters (1 heater dedicated
to the pool and 1 dedicated to the spa), can control other variable speed pumps (limited
to Jandy, Hayward, Century, Marathon or Speck), and can be controlled by a dry contact
switch. The USB port allows for MultiWave system updates.
The P5043ME is ideal for those pool and spa combination applications with the additional
possibility of a water feature, solar feature, variable speed pump, 1 or 2 heaters and/or a
dry contact switch. The dry contact switch can be triggered by any switching device you may provide —
light switch, spring wound AUTO/OFF, wireless switch, relay and more.
www.intermatic.com
(PA122) Water Temperature Sensor
The Intermatic Water Sensor (PA122) monitors both pool and spa water
temperature, depending on the position of the diverter valves. Installation is
necessary for the thermostatic control to work.
(178PA28A) Freeze (Air Temperature) Sensor
The freeze/air temperature sensor measures air temperature. When the air
temperature drops below a user-congured setpoint, the freeze sensor turns pumps
ON to circulate water through the pipes to ensure they do not freeze or burst.
(PA122) Solar (Air Temperature) Sensor (Optional)
11 Overview
The solar/air temperature sensor measures air temperature near the solar
collector. It can be congured for either heating or cooling solar applications.
MultiWave Control System Installation Guide
12
(PE24VA) 24-Volt Valve Actuator (Optional)
Designed with quality in mind, Intermatic’s 24-volt valve actuators provide
reliable control of 2-way and 3-way diverter valves for pool/spa combinations
and water features. The water ow can be altered for specic applications
through the adjustable cam, which rotates diverter valves to multiple degree
settings. The cam settings can be easily adjusted by simply removing the lid.
These valve actuators are compatible with all pool/spa valves currently offered in
the industry and will retrot into all pool/spa control systems.

(PE30000) Load Center (Optional)
The PE30000 load center provides a safe and efcient environment for the control
components of MultiWave Pool/Spa Series Kits which include expansion module
and/or relay modules.
The PE30000 Series panel includes an eight-position 80 Amp breaker base, two
mechanism slots, and four décor knockouts for GFCIs and switches.
The panel provides a low voltage raceway for low voltage control lines (i.e. actuators,
sensors, etc…) and a convenient side knockout for an outdoor receptacle.
The panel is rated for indoor/outdoor use and is suitable for pool equipment control and for direct
connection to a wet-niche or no-niche luminaire.

Mounting the PE653RC System
Follow this procedure to mount the MultiWave enclosure and PE653 receiver.
1. Select a location to mount the receiver that is near the pool/spa equipment; at least 3m
(in Canada) or 5 ft (in USA) from the inside wall of the pool, spa, or pond, unless separated
from the body of water by a fence, wall, or other permanent barrier that will make the unit
inaccessible to persons in the water. NOTE: The receiver must be mounted in a vertical
(upright) position on top of the enclosure.
2. Select the knockouts to be used and insert a athead screwdriver into the slot and carefully
punch the 1/2" knockout loose and remove the slug.
NOTE: If a 3/4" knockout is required, remove the outer ring with pliers after removing the
1/2" knockout. Smooth the edge with a le if required.
NOTE: If a low voltage circuit or a heater control circuit is to be used, remove the low
voltage knockout from the PE653 enclosure.
13 Mounting
3. Install conduit hub to knockout rated for outdoor locations, raintight, or wet locations that
complies with the requirements in UL 514B (standard for tting for conduit and outlet box).
4. Place the metal enclosure in the desired mounting location and mark the three mounting
holes. Install the top screw rst and then hang the enclosure by the keyhole. Then install the
bottom screws, tightening all screws for a secure mounting.
5. Install conduit as needed to comply with national and local electrical and safety codes.
6. Bond the enclosure in accordance with your state and local codes. Where required, connect a
No. 8 AWG solid copper wire to the enclosure with a Bonding Lug (part number 156T11047A).
Connect the bonding wire to an approved earth ground.
7. Identify and install all wires necessary to complete the installation. Allow a length of
approximately 18" (46 cm) of each wire at the metal enclosure for required connections of
junctions.
8. Connect wiring for circuits as required. Refer to the diagrams in Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 for
wiring suggestions for specic equipment combinations. All splices and wire nut connections
