RYALX Harness (P/N RYALX) Accessory
(For use with Compool CP-38xx Systems)

The RYALX harness (y-adapter) allows any one output circuit to operate two relay
circuits. For example, to free up an additional connection on the Compool SOLAR
system, connect the RYALX harness cable plug to the SOLAR socket, then
connect the IntelliComm II pump speed plug and the VALVE cable plug to the
RYALX board. The RYALX can be used for any output.

The example connection diagram below shows how to share the Aux Valve
Control using solar. The signal to tell solar to turn on, comes from the solar socket
located below the HTR socket. Then the AUX VLV control and the speed of the
pump now responds to that signal.

Setting up an IntelliFlo VF Pump with IntelliComm II

The IntelliFlo VF pump can operate with all of its stand alone features if desired.
For example the pump can run filter cycles, egg timer features 1 and 2 and time
of day scheduling of features 3-9. If IntelliComm II sends the pump a command
when the pump is running the filter cycle or features 3-9, the IntelliComm II
command takes priority regardless of flow rate. IntelliComm II will not interrupt

nor take priority over Features 1 or 2.

For the IntelliFlo VF to accept a command from the IntelliComm II the pump must
be in the “Running” mode. To place the IntelliFlo VF in “Running” mode, press
the Filter mode button, then press the Start/Stop button. The led above the
Start/Stop button must be lit for the IntelliFlo VF to accept commands from the
IntelliComm II.

The default “Filter” cycle time in the IntelliFlo VF is from 9 AM to 9 PM. Since the
IntelliFlo VF must be in the “Filter” mode, running Schedules, (LED above Start/
Stop button lit) to accept commands from IntelliComm II, it will run its default
filtration schedule first. If you want the pump to only run when it receives
commands from IntelliComm II, program its “Filter” mode with the same start and
stop times. For example program Cycle 1 in the “Filter” menu to “Start” cycle one
at 9 AM and “Stop” cycle one at 9 AM. This will cause the pump to not run its
filter cycle. This is done on the IntelliFlo keypad under Menu, Filter. Address 1,
is the default address for the IntelliFlo VF. The IntelliComm II will only
communicate with address 1. The pump’s “Address” setting is the first menu
item under “Pool Data”.

Programming Flows into the IntelliFlo VF

1. Press the Menu button.

2. Press the down arrow until Ext. Ctrl. (External Control is displayed).

3. Press the Select button to go Ext. Ctrl. (Program 1 is displayed).

4. Press the Select Button (Enabled, Activation is displayed).

5. Press the down arrow. (Program 1, 30 GPM, Set Flow, is displayed. The
Program 1 flow rate will run when PRGM 1 is activated on the
IntelliComm II control board.

6. To change this flow rate press the “Select” button. The flow rate can be
adjusted from 15 gpm to 130 gpm.

7. The cursor will highlight the one's digit column. Press the left and right
arrows to move the cursor and the up and down arrows to change the
number.

8. Press the Enter Button to save.

9. Press the down arrow until “Time Delay Stop” is displayed. Time Delay
Stop is used to control the pump to run the Program speed for an
additional amount of time after the IntelliComm II turns off its run
command. This is often used for a heater cool down.

10. Press Select to highlight the cursor, use the left and right arrows to
move the cursor and the up and down arrows to change the number.

11. Press Enter to save.

12. Press Escape to Exit. The display shows Program 1. Press the down
arrow to get to Program 2 and follow the same instructions to program.
For more information about programming the pump, refer to the
IntelliFlo VF Installation and User’s Guide (P/N 353850).

IntelliComm II Interface Adapter Installation and User’s Guide

Setting up an IntelliFlo VS or IntelliPro VS

The IntelliFlo VS pump Speeds 1, 2, 3 and 4 correspond to Prgm (Program) 1, 2,
3 and 4 on the IntelliComm II circuit board. To program speed one on the
IntelliFlo VS. Press the “Speed 1” button. Press the Start button. To increase the
speed of “Speed 1” press the up arrow button. Each press of the up arrow will
increase the RPM by 10 RPM increments. Pressing the down arrow will
decrease the RPM by 10 RPM. When the desired speed is found, press and
hold down the “Speed 1” button and the new speed will be locked in. This new
speed will be the speed that the pump will run when “Prgm 1” is activated on the
IntelliComm II. The speed can be adjusted from 400 RPM to 3450 RPM.

Note: If the IntelliFlo VS pump is turned on manually by pressing a Speed
button and the Start button, it will run the speed that was pressed and the LED
above this button will be illuminated. If it then gets a command to run a speed
from the IntelliComm II, it will run the new commanded speed and the LED
above the new speed will be illuminated. When the command from the
IntelliComm II has stopped, the pump will go back to running the manually
pressed speed.

Note: If the IntelliComm II has switched on the IntelliFlo VS and it is running a
speed and you manually adjust the pump speed using the speed buttons on the
pump, you must then manually switch the pump OFF, this turns off the manually
manipulated speed and allows the IntelliComm II to take command and switch
the pump back on to run at the commanded speed. If, after manipulating the
keypad, the pump is not manually turned off by pressing the Stop button the
pump will continue to run after the IntelliComm II command is stopped.

17

Unlike the VF, the IntelliFlo VS does not have to be in the “Running” mode to
accept commands from an IntelliComm II. The power must be on (Green LED lit)
on the IntelliComm II to accept commands.

Setting up an IntelliFlo VS+SVRS

The IntelliFlo VS+ SVRS is programmed in a similar way to the IntelliFlo VF.
Speeds for each program number are set up under the menu item “Ext. Ctrl.”
(External Control).

IntelliComm II Interface Adapter Installation and User’s Guide

18

Programming IntelliFlo VS+ SVRS Speeds

Press the menu button. Press the down arrow until “Ext Ctrl.” is displayed.
Follow the instructions as described on page 10 for the IntelliFlo VF (steps 1
through 12). However there is one difference. The IntelliFlo VS+SVRS does
not have any default “Schedules” so it is not necessary to deactivate any
schedules so it will only run commands from the IntelliComm II. But, just like
the IntelliFlo VF it can be programmed to run scheduled flows and when it
gets a command from IntelliComm II to run a program the IntelliComm II
program will take priority.

Note: If more than one terminal input is activated on the IntelliComm II the
highest number input will take priority, regardless of the pump setting. For
example: If program 1 and program 3 are activated on the IntelliComm II
The pump will run program 3, regardless of speed, flow or order of activa­tion.

When a command to run is sent from the IntelliComm II to the VS+SVRS the
pump’s display will show “Running Prog. 1” and the countdown timer on the
IntelliFlo VF display will show 00:01.

CAUTION: When performing maintenance on the system or the pump
switch the power to the pump off at the circuit breaker. This will ensure that
the pump does not switch on from remote operation or run a schedule.

IntelliFlo Pump Warnings and Alarm Conditions

The IntelliFlo VS-3050 alarms and warnings are indicated by flashing LEDs on
the control panel. For example, if a “Drive Temperature” warning occurs, the LED
will blink two times, then Off, then blink two times. This sequence is repeated until
the condition is cleared.

• Warning condition: If a warning condition occurs the pump will
be continue to run but at a reduced speed. The Green LED
executes a sequence of blinks to indicate which alarm or
warning has occurred.

• Alarm condition: If an alarm condition occurs the pump will drive
stop running. The red LED flashes continuously to indicate the
presence of an alarm. The alarm LEDs will reset when the

condition clears.
