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 EasyTouch 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 EasyTouch 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 EasyTouch 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,
heat pump (heating/cooling or both), and the optional IntelliChlor salt chlorine generator and IntelliChem water
chemistry controller.
Operating EasyTouch
The EasyTouch 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. If required, the EasyTouch outdoor control panel can be
password protected. To access a password protected control panel, simply enter the assigned the four digit
password (see page 53).
1
EasyTouch Systems
There are two EasyTouch system configurations available; EasyTouch 8 (auxiliary circuits) and EasyTouch 4
(auxiliary circuits). The EasyTouch system is factory configured to operate with a “shared” equipment system
or with a “single body” system. For EasyTouch 4 and EasyTouch 8 menu settings, see page 14.
IntelliChlor® Electronic Chlorine Generator
The optional IntelliChlor salt chlorination system allows the EasyTouch system to
automatically control water sanitization by using a low concentration of salt (sodium
chloride) in the pool and spa water. 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. 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).
IntelliChem® Chemical Dispenser
The optional IntelliChem is a pH and ORP sensing device that dispenses correct
amount of chlorine or bromine, muriatic acid or CO2 gas. IntelliChem provides
continual analysis of your swimming pool water sanitation and pH levels, providing
real-time status information to dispense the proper amount of muriatic acid (pH
reducer) and chlorine or bromine for the correct sanitization and pH balance.
IntelliChem operates with or without a salt chlorine generator to provide a selfreplenishing supply of chlorine generated from salt. IntelliChem can also connect to carbon dioxide (CO2)
liquid gas tanks to lower pH in your swimming pool water. When CO2 dissolves into water it produces weak
neutral bicarbonate salts which reduces pH. CO2 is environmentally friendly and produces no secondary
pollution into the treated water by salts such as chlorides or sulfates. IntelliChem also supports IntelliChlor salt
chlorine generator (SCG) to help manage your pool water sanitizer levels.

The Schedules “Once Only” timer feature lets 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.

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 button or Pool button to switch the circuit on. If you program
the start and stop times the same, the schedule will run for 24 hours if scheduled to run for one day. In
“Service” mode, a pool or spa program can be overridden using the Filter (F) button and pool/spa Valves (V)
button on the outdoor control panel in the EasyTouch load center. 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 30).
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
time only. This example can also be used if you wanted to program when to filter and heat your pool,

Using the Egg Timer (countdown) Feature
The “Egg Timer” feature allows you switch off a circuit automatically after a specified time. The time period
is from one minute to 24 hours or run continuously. The “Egg Timer” (countdown) feature is useful for
switching off lighting and spa therapy jets. For example, a jet pump can be setup to switch off in 15 minutes,
even if you switch it on using the iS4 or iS10 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 Timer programs are factory set to switch
off after 12 hours. You also have the option to use the “Don’t Stop” feature to run a circuit continuously until
manually switched off.
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.
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 time only. This
example can also be used if you wanted to program when to filter and heat your pool, and switch light or
auxiliary circuits on.

pump)
The EasyTouch system communicates with the IntelliFlo pump via a two-wire RS-485 cable (PN 350122).
IntelliFlo operations can be controlled from the EasyTouch indoor and outdoor control panel and the EasyTouch
wireless remote. EasyTouch supports the following pumps: IntelliFlo VF3050 (15-130 GPM), IntelliPro
VF3050 (15-130 GPM), IntelliFlo VS+SVRS (1100-3450 RPM), IntelliFlo VS3050 (400-3110 RPM),
IntelliPro VS3050 (400-3450 RPM) and IntelliFlo VSF+SVRS. 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 IntelliFlo pumps will EasyTouch support?
EasyTouch can support a total of two IntelliFlo (or IntelliPro) VF3050 or IntelliFlo VS3050 (or VSF+SVRS) pumps
in any combination with up to eight GPMs or RPMs per pump. For example pumps can be connected to
EasyTouch as follows:
•1 IntelliFlo VF + 1 IntelliFlo VS (or VSF+SVRS)
•2 IntelliFlo VF
•2 IntelliFlo VS (or VSF+SVRS)
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.

Connecting power to IntelliFlo
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 EasyTouch
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 is appropriate if you need to use existing relays or timers.
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.
IntelliFlo VS 3050 Speed buttons (1-4)
To assign an IntelliFlo VS 3050 pump address:
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.
NOTE: INTELLIFLO IN “SERVICE MODE” - IntelliFlo pumps will STOP when IntelliTouch is in ‘Service” mode.
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.

Filtering -Pool Size/Gallons: 0 - 255 (Kgals) - Turnovers per day: (1 - 8)
Filtering Manual Filter GPM: (15 - 130) Default 30 GPM: Manual Filter sets the flow at which
the pump will run if it is turned on manually. The IntelliFlo pump will only run in the 'Filter'
mode during the programmed times. For example, if the pump is programmed (start/stop
times) for the pool circuit to run from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM everyday. This program or programs
are used by IntelliFlo to calculate at what speed it must run given those ‘ON’ times to achieve
the turnover(s) for that sized pool for the basic filter mode.
Priming - Max Prime Flow GPM:(30 - 130) Default 55 GPM: Every time the pump starts this
parameter will negotiate the maximum flow of the pump. If the flow is too high, equipment
damage can occur. If the flow is to low the pump will not prime. This “flow” is system
dependent and may require adjustment. The pump will never flow more than this parameter is
set to, however, it is common for the pump to ramp up and down quickly while priming.
Always try to keep this flow as low as possible for cost savings and safety.

IntelliFlo VF 3050 Pump Settings (Continued)
Priming - Max Prime Time: (1 - 15 minutes) Default 15 min.: Use this parameter to set the time that you want
IntelliFlo try and prime before it reports an error. Remember that the IntelliFlo will attain prime every time it starts
and goes through this cycle. The IntelliFlo mechanical seal can withstand about 15 minutes before severe damage
occurs. The lower the time the quicker you will get a priming error if the system is difficult to prime. A well plumbed
pool without having the strainer removed should prime in less than 30 seconds. If the strainer has been removed for
cleaning and a substantial amount of air is in the system it should prime in about 60 to 90 seconds on the average,
however, all systems will be different.
Priming - System Prime Time: (0 - 5 minutes) Default 0 min.: Remember that the average unit will prime in a short
period of time because the IntelliFlo has the ability to monitor itself to make sure it is primed. “System Prime Time”
is for systems that require high flows that priming flow can provide but it is deemed that more time is needed to fully
relieve all the air. The builder can program a pre determined amount of time, up to 5 minutes, to aid in relieving the
air from difficult filters or complex vertical plumbing. The “System PrimeTime” should only be used where large air
traps become problems within the system. The display will inform the user when this is engaged and when it is
finished during the priming cycle at each start up cycle.
The average PSI setting is between 10 PSI and 20 PSI for most pools and filters. The
entered PSI value splits the percentage meter for the filter. When the ""clean filter" value
is reached, EasyTouch displays an alert message and the pump stops monitoring flow
rates and starts managing pressure. The value represents the change in pressure over
time from start up (system clean) to present day (system getting dirty). The changes
can come from anywhere in the system, for example clogged skimmers or pots in
pumps. Setting this parameter at a lower level will cause the alert message to come up
sooner and you will have to clean your filter (cartridge) or backwash your filter (sand or
DE) sooner.
This parameter can be set from 1 to 600 minutes. The typical setting is 10 minutes. This
setting sets the amount of time you wish to run the pool vacuum.

While the EasyTouch system is in normal operating mode (“Pool,” “Spa” mode or “Spa Fill (Spillway),” it will
control the IntelliChlor chlorine output level. The amount of chlorine introduced into the pool is determined by
the amount of salt in the water, water temperature, and the amount of time the pool pump is running in “Pool”
mode. Note: While in “Freeze Protection” mode, IntelliChlor will not operate or produce chlorine during the
time that the filter pump is operating. For more information, refer to the IntelliChlor Electronic Chlorine

About Super Chlorination: The Super Chlorination feature is used to introduce large amounts of chlorine into
the pool water if there has been heavy rain fall, many bathers in the pool, cloudy water conditions, etc. When
Super Chlorination is enabled, the system will switch on the filter pump, set the pool/spa valves to the correct
position, and set the IntelliChlor chlorine generator to maximum output. This process continues for 24 hours. At
the end of the Super Chlorination process, the pool will return to normal operation. It is possible to manually
stop the Super Chlorination process and switch off the filter pump using the Filter (F) button on the main control
panel at the pool equipment pad. When the filter pump is switched on again using the Filter (F) button, the Super
Chlorine process will resume for the duration of time left.

Settings Menu: IntelliChem
IntelliChem provides the EasyTouch system with continual analysis of your swimming pool water sanitation
and pH levels, providing real-time status information to dispense the proper amount of muriatic acid (pH
reducer) 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 menu you can adjust the pH and Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) set point values to
meet pool and spa chemistry standards for your pool. A status screen displays a user adjustable pH and OPR
fuel gauge which visually represents the same amount of chemicals available in pH and ORP container.

EasyTouch Pool and Spa Control System User’s Guide
Page 47
SAT INDEX: The Saturation Index (SI), also called the Langelier Index, is a chemical equation or formula used to
diagnose the water balance in the pool. The Saturation Index formula is SI = pH + TF + CF + AF - 12.1. To calculate
the Saturation Index, you must first test the pool water for pH, temperature, calcium hardness, and total alkalinity.
Refer to a chart for assigned values for your hardness, and alkalinity readings then add these to your pH value.
Subtract 12.1, which is the constant value assigned to Total Dissolved Solids and a resultant number will be produced.
A result between -0.3 and +0.5 indicates balanced water. Test results not within these values require chemical
adjustments to achieve balance. This formula is more or less reliable but not guaranteed. In some cases, individual
readings for pH, calcium, and alkalinity might be beyond normal recommendations, however, combined within the
formula can produce “balanced water.” The SI is useful to pinpoint potential water balance problems.
pH: pH produced by IntelliChlor SCG is close to Neutral pH. However, other factors usually cause the pH of the
pool water to rise. Therefore, the pH in a pool chlorinated by IntelliChlor tends to stabilize at approximately 7.8.
This is within APSP standards. If the pool pH rises above 7.8, have a pool professional test to see if other factors
such as high Calcium Hardness or Total Alkalinity are the cause and then balance accordingly.
pH Level Test: Test the pH level of your pool water with a reliable test method. If necessary, adjust according
to your pool professional’s recommendations. APSP’s recommended ideal range for pH is 7.4 to 7.6. Note: Never
use dry acid (sodium bisulfate) to adjust pH in arid geographic areas with excessive evaporation and minimal
dilution of pool water with fresh water. A buildup of byproducts can damage the IntelliChlor SCG
39
Calcium Hardness: Recommended range for calcium hardness is 200-400 ppm. Calcium Hardness levels should be
tested weekly
. Calcium hardness is the calcium carbonate scale deposited on pool surfaces. The test for Calcium
Hardness is a measure of how “hard” or “soft” the water is testing. “Hard” water can have high levels of calcium
and magnesium. If these levels are too high the water becomes saturated and will leave calcium carbonate scale
deposits (a “white-ish,” crystallized rough spot) on any surface inside the pool. If the levels are too low, the water
becomes “soft” and will corrode surfaces inside the pool. Use TSP or Hydroquest 100 to lower Calcium Hardness
levels that are too high or add water to the pool which has a lower calcium hardness content. Levels which are too
low require the addition of calcium chloride.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS): Adding salt to pool water will raise the TDS level. While this does not adversely
affect the pool water chemistry or clarity, the pool water professional testing for TDS must be made aware salt
has been added to the IntelliChlor system. The individual performing the TDS test may then subtract the salinity
level to arrive at a TDS level that would be compatible to a TDS reading for a non-salt water pool.
Total Alkalinity: APSP’s recommended ideal range for total alkalinity 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. Alkalinity can be described as a buffer that keeps pH in order. pH
depends on the ability of the alkalinity in the water to withstand the changes in pH. If the alkalinity is too high,
adding acid (similar to pH) lowers the level. Adding a base (e.g sodium bicarbonate) when alkalinity is low, raises
the level. The level of alkalinity in the water is a measurement of all carbonates, bicarbonates, hydroxides, and
other alkaline substances found in the pool water.
Cyanuric Acid: Cyanuric acid is needed in outdoor pools to help to stabilize and maintain proper levels of
chlorine. 90% of unstabilized chlorine is destroyed by the UV radiation from the sun within two hours. Cyanuric
acid stabilizes chlorine in water from UV degradation. When using the IntelliChlor SCG, the cyanuric acid level
should be maintained between 30-50 ppm (50ppm maximum).

Settings Menu: Circuit Functions
Assigning Circuit Functions
From the “Circuit Functions” menu you can assign special logic to the cleaner pump, spa spillway, lights and
MagicStream laminar circuits. For example, when setting up an automatic pool cleaner pump, you would
assign the circuit function “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 (40° C)). 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.

Delays Cooldown: This feature keeps the pump running for ten minutes after the heater is switched off to cool down the
heaters header andheat exchanger. Some heater models require this cool down period or damage will occur. This is
sometime referred toas the “Fireman Switch.” for example, If you are in the spa, and you switch it off. The IntelliTouch
will return the valvesto “Pool” mode position. If the pool is running a cycle, or the Fireman switch (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
valvesturn back to pool. Delays For Valves: This feature creates a 30 second PUMP OFF (forced) period anytime the
valves rotate. Either from poolto 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 featureprevents cold water entering the spa when you start the spa, so less heating is needed. It
also stops the pump when thesystem is changing from pool to spa or back again in Freeze mode.

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.

1. Press the Mode button on the control panel to place the system in “Service” manual mode.
2. Press the Filter Pump (F) button to switch on the pool/spa filter pump.
3. Place the thermometer in the spa or pool water. Take an accurate temperature reading. When
calibrating the air sensor, place the thermometer next to the air sensor. The air sensor is normally
located near or under the EasyTouch load center enclosure, not inside the enclosure. Take an
accurate temperature reading in the shade.
4. Use the Up or Down buttons to raise or lower the water temperature to
match the corresponding thermometer temperature reading.
5. After calibrating the water sensor, use the Right button to move to the

Use the following troubleshooting information to help resolve problems that may occur when using the
EasyTouch 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.
59
To configure a two-speed pump relay, refer to “Settings Menu: 2-Speed Pump,” on page 46. For relay location
and wiring (see page 64). The 2-Speed pump relay connector is plugged into the 2-SPD output on the
EasyTouch 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 25) 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.

(see page 56) there were no errors detected, Code 0 is displayed, indicating that there were no problems and
the test was successful. If a problem is detected during the test, an error code is displayed upon completion of
the test. For example Code 3 would indicate a problem with the LEDs on the control panel. If multiple errors
are detected, multiple code numbers are displayed. For example, Codes 4, 2, 1, would indicate problems
detected with the buttons, LEDs, and the LCD backlight on the control panel.

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 EasyTouch System Wiring Diagram on page 64.
•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:
65
Use the following steps to test the valve actuators (CVA24T) for proper rotation.
To 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 46).
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 EasyTouch control panel and/or the
EasyTouch Indoor Control Panel. If necessary, write the function on the control panel.
1. Step 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.
