EasyTouch System Overview
EasyTouch Pool and Spa Control System Overview
Welcome to the EasyTouch Pool and Spa Control system − The next generation in automatic control systems.
The EasyT ouch 8 or EasyTouch 4 system allows you to automatically control all of your spa and pool daily
operations. Pool and spa service operations can be manually controlled from the EasyT ouch outdoor control
panel located at the pool equipment pad. Also available is the optional Indoor Control Panel and wireless
control panel which allows automatic control of pool and spa operations from inside you home or outside
around your pool area.
The EasyT ouch 8 or EasyTouch 4 system can control high voltage (120 VAC / 240 VAC) equipment,
automatic valve actuators, pumps, lighting, a conventional heater or a solar heating system and the optional
IntelliChlor salt chlorine generator.
Operating EasyTouch
The EasyT ouch system is designed to automatically control your pool and spa equipment, lights and other
optional equipment. However, you can also manually control all EasyTouch system operations from the outdoor
control panel. Using the “Mode” button, the system can be switched from “Auto” mode (normal operating
mode) to “Service” mode for manual operation and service purposes. Using the outdoor control panel buttons
you can manually override any automatic settings.
1
IntelliChlor™ Electronic Chlorine Generator
The optional IntelliChlor salt chlorination system allows the EasyT ouch system to automatically control water
sanitization by using a low concentration of salt (sodium chloride) in the pool and spa water. The IntelliChlor is
enabled from the “IntelliChlor” Settings menu (see page 26). IntelliChlor automatically converts the salt into
free chlorine which eliminate bacteria and algae in the pool and spa water. The chlorine will then revert back
to sodium chloride after killing the bacteria. The outcome of this continuous cycle, practically eliminates the
need to use sanitizing chemicals in the pool/spa water. When the pool and spa water is replenished due to
backwashing or draining, more salt may need to be added to the pool/spa water.
IntelliChlor model IC20 (P/N 520554/520556) is designed for swimming pools up to 20,000 U.S. gallons
(75,000 liters). Model IC40 (P/N 520555/520556) is designed for swimming pools up to 40,000 U.S. gallons
(151,000 liters). The pool chlorination amounts may vary depending on number of pool occupants,
temperature, environment conditions, rainfall and other elements that might affect the pool water .

Using the Once Only timer feature
The Schedules “Once Only” timer feature enables you to automatically switch equipment on for one time. This
feature allows you to program a circuit to turn on at a particular time on a onetime basis. For example, if you
wanted the spa to be heated when you arrive home, you could program the heater to switch on at a specific
time and after you have finished using the spa you can switch the heater off manually. After the program has
run, it is automatically erased. Unlike using the regular “Schedule” program, the “Once Only” program does
not repeat. The circuit must be turned off manually or wait for the 12 hour automatic shut-off. However, you
could also reset the 12 hour factory shut-off by entering an “Egg Timer” count down program to extend past
the default 12 hours shut-off.

Delay Cancel Menu
Use the Delay Cancel feature for service or testing purposes. For convenience, on a onetime basis, the Delay
Cancel feature will cancel the following safety delays. Please note, generally there is no need to cancel any of
the following delays except for servicing or testing the system.
•Heater Cool-Down Delay Cancel: Shuts Filter Pump off immediately.
•2-Speed Filter Pump five-minute START on HIGH SPEED Delay Cancel: Shifts pump to low
speed.
•Automatic Pool Cleaner START Delay: Starts Cleaner Pump immediately, without normal delay in
which the filter pump first runs for 5 minutes.
•Automatic Pool Cleaner SOLAR Delay: Allows Cleaner Pump to run even though solar delay has
shut it off for 5 minutes.
Some heaters require a cool-down cycle before being switched off. This can be setup in the menu to run 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 it’s necessary to shut the filter pump
off immediately, and know the heater has not been running. Heaters manufactured by Pentair do not require
this cool-down period and do not need the delay to be set up.

Program your Spa or Pool
You can use the “Schedule” feature to set the time and day(s) when to switch the filter pump on and rotate the
pool or spa valves into the “Spa” or “Pool” position. The heater will automatically heat the spa or pool water
up to the set point temperature as set in the “Heat” menu (see page 18). If the pool has a separate jet pump or
blower controlled by AUX 1 and/or AUX 2 , these need to be scheduled separately.
Schedules
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 or any specific 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 of f. For
example, if the filter pump is scheduled to automatically run from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM daily then the filter
pump is switched on manually at 9:00 PM, it will run continuously for 12 hours until the next day at 6:00 PM
then switch off. The programmed schedule will then continue from then on. Default run time for the
“Schedule” feature is 12 hours. If you program the start and stop times the same the schedule will run for 24
hours if scheduled to run for one day. A spa or pool program can be overridden using the Filter (F) button and
pool/spa Valves (V) button on the main control panel in the EasyTouch Load center. The system must be in
“Service” manual mode to operate these buttons. Note: The following example describes how to use the
“Schedule” feature to program the spa circuit to switch the filter pump on and rotate the valves into the
“Spa” position and switch the heater on. This example can also be used to program when to filter and
heat your pool, and switch light or auxiliary circuits on or off.

Using the Once Only feature
The “Once Only” feature allows you to program a circuit to switch on at a particular time and day on a
onetime basis. A typical use for this feature is to have the spa and heater switch on before you get home from
work for one evening. Unlike the regular “Schedule” timer, this feature does not repeat. After this event has
finished, the program is automatically erased. The circuit must be switched off manually or wait for the 12
hour automatic shut off. If you wish to override the 12 hour default shut-off time you can extend the time by
using the “Egg Timer” countdown feature (page 23).
Note: The following example describes how use the “Once Only” feature to program the spa circuit to
switch the filter pump on and rotate the valves into the “Spa” position and switch the heater on for one

Using the Egg Timer (countdown) Feature
The “Egg Timer” feature allows you switch off a circuit automatically after a specified time. The time period
can be anywhere from one minute to 24 hours or run continuously . The “Egg T imer” (countdown) feature is
useful for switching off lighting and spa therapy jets. For example, a jet pump can be set to switch off in 15
minutes, even when switched on by the iS4 Spa-Side remote control or whenever you switch your spa on, you
would like it to automatically switch it off in two hours. All Egg T imer programs are factory set to switch of f
after 12 hours. You also have the option to use the “Don’t Stop” feature to run a circuit continuously until
manually switched off.
Please note that in the event of a power failure, the “Egg Timer” feature will not switch the circuit back on.
Use the “Service” mode to turn the equipment back on. Refer to “Mode button,” page 4 for more information.
For running the filter pump continuously during new pool start up, it is recommended to use the “Service”
mode, which will automatically restart the filter pump in the event of a power failure.

Settings Menu: Circuit Types
Assigning Circuit Types
From the “Circuit Types” menu you can assign special logic to the circuits. For example, when setting up an
automatic pool cleaner pump, you would assign the circuit type MASTER CLEANER. With this "Cleaner"
logic the cleaner pump would force the filter pump on, and the cleaner pump would start after a delay of five
minutes. The cleaner pump would automatically shut off whenever the spa and/or solar is switched on.
Freeze Protection
Freeze protection switches on a circuit if the outside air temperature sensor detects the temperature is getting
close to freezing (below 35° F). The system will switch on all circuits that have been assigned freeze
protection, and runs the circuits for 15 minutes to stop the pipes from freezing. This is especially important if
there is a pool and spa combination. 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 in both the pool
and spa. This process continues until the freeze condition is over .

Settings Menu: Solar
Use the solar settings to setup solar or configure solar as a heat pump:
Setting Up Solar Control: Ensure that the solar temperature sensor is installed.
About Installing Solar Heating: First, install the solar sensor at the collectors and connect to the EasyTouch
load center. If “HEAT PUMP” is selected and is being used in place of a solar heating system, install Solar
sensor near the EasyTouch Load Center. Connect the wires to the SOLAR screw terminals according to the
wiring diagram on page 47. Plug the solar valve actuator cable into three-pin socket marked VLV A on the
EasyT ouch motherboard. If a solar booster pump is being installed, connect the pump to a power relay and
plug a low voltage cable from relay into the two-pin socket marked SOLAR on the EasyTouch motherboard.
Note: If Solar is not selected (No), the EasyTouch menu selections display “AUX EXTRA” instead of
“SOLAR.” This allows the solar plug (J17) on the EasyTouch motherboard to be used an “extra”
auxiliary output circuit. The Solar button is used to switch on and off the extra auxiliary circuit.

Settings Menu: Calibration
The EasyTouch system includes two temperature sensors (10 kΩ) for water and ambient air temperature. You
can also add an additional sensor for controlling solar heating systems. Generally , these sensors are accurate
and you do not have to calibrate them. However, long plumbing runs and water features can 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. You only need to calibrate one body of water, since the temperature
sensor is common to both the pool and spa. The system must be in “Service” mode to calibrate sensors.

Troubleshooting
Use the following troubleshooting information to help resolve problems that may occur when using the
EasyT ouch system. If by following the recommended actions you are still unable to resolve the problems,
please contact Technical Support (see page vi).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I setup a two-speed pump?
A two-speed pump operates using two relays and one or more circuits. The first relay turns the pump on or
off. Assuming this is a filter pump, this circuit is controlled by the pool and spa circuits or any other circuit that
may be tied to the filter pump (such as circuits with freeze protection, etc.). The second relay switches the
pump from low speed to high speed. The default condition is low speed. Up to seven circuits (EasyTouch 8),
three circuits (EasyTouch 4) may be assigned to trigger the pump to high speed. Note: These circuits do not
switch the pump on.
43
T o configure a two-speed pump relay, refer to “Settings Menu: 2-Speed Pump,” on page 32. For relay location
and wiring (see page 48). The 2-Speed pump relay connector is plugged into the 2-SPD output on the
EasyT ouch motherboard.
Can I switch the heater on and change the temperature from the spa?
The heater may be switched on from the spa location using the iS4 Spa-Side remote or by the QuickTouch
wireless remote controller. To learn more about these remotes and controllers, see page 6. However, the iS4
and QuickTouch wireless remote controller cannot adjust the water temperature.
How do I switch on solar heating?
The system must first be configured for solar heating. Go to the “Heat” menu (see page 18) and enable
“Solar” as the heat source (Settings Menu: Heat > Solar). Note: Do not set solar as a heat pump. Then the
heating method must be selected for each body of water.

(Load Center)
First Time System Start-Up
The following information describes a basic system start-up procedure. Before you power up the EasyTouch
system at the Load Center first check the following:
Check Electronics
Check that the following plugs are seated correctly on the EasyTouch Load Center motherboard. For
connector locations, refer to the EasyT ouch System Wiring Diagram on page 50.
•Relay connectors - FLTR PUMP - AUX 1 - 7 (EasyTouch 8), AUX 1 - 3 (EasyTouch 4)
•Temperature sensors connectors - WATER, SOLAR, AIR
•Transformer wire harness - J1
•Heater control connector - ELEC HTR and GAS HEATER (J19)
System Test
Follow the steps below to test the EasyTouch control panel to activate the heater, valves and pumps. This test
assumes that all system equipment has been properly installed and connected to the EasyTouch Load center.
Testing Valve Actuators and Pumps:
49
Use the following steps to test the valve actuators (CV A24T) for proper rotation.
T o test the valve actuators and pump:
1. Switch on the electrical power at the house breaker.
2. Switch on the EasyTouch Load Center. You may need to switch on the breakers on the Load Center.
3. Press the Mode button to enable “Service” mode.
4. Press the Valve (V) button to select “Pool” mode.
5. Press the Filter Pump (F) button to activate the filter pump. Water will be removed from the pool
and returned to the pool. A spa bypass line divert a small amount of water to the spa. Make sure the
filter pump turns on correctly. If the pump has two speeds: Press the button one time to run the pump
in low speed. Press the button again to run the pump in high speed. Press the button again to switch
the pump off. A Two-Speed pump has to be configured in the 2-Speed menu (see page 32).
6. Set both valve actuators (CVA-24T) for suction and return. Use the toggle switch on the rear of the
CVA-24T to withdraw and return water from the pool.
7. Press the Valves (V) button. Step through all four valve positions: Pool, Spa, Fill, Drain. Make sure
the valves turn on correctly and the water is moving in the correct direction for each position. If
necessary, flip the actuator toggle switch to change the direction of the water.
Note: With the filter pump operating, if water is not being removed and returned to the pool,
it may be necessary to reverse the RETURN with VLV A (or VLV B) plugs on the EasyTouch
motherboard.
Testing the Auxiliary Relays
Affix the auxiliary relay labels to the appropriate buttons on the EasyT ouch control panel and/or the
EasyT ouch Indoor Control Panel. If necessary, write the function on the control panel.
1. S tep through the rest of the auxiliary buttons. Notice which button turns on which equipment. You
may need to walk the property to find what each button turns on.
2. Write down what each button switches on, including the number of the circuit. You need this
information when you set up the Indoor Control Panel.
3. Label the circuit buttons on the outdoor control panel and the EasyTouch Indoor Control Panel.
