3.5Temperature Sensors

1.Drill 3/8" hole in pipe between filter pump and filter and install the Water Temperature Sensor per instructions (make certain the o-ring is in place).

2.Install Air Temperature Sensor outside the Power Center can, not in direct sunlight and away from motors and other heat sources.

3.Install Solar Temperature Sensor (optional) adjacent to solar panels.

NOTE Do not coil the JVA wires inside Power Center. To shorten the wire, remove the JVA cover and disconnect the wire. Shorten, strip, and reconnect.

3.For alternate plumbing configurations the JVA cam settings can be adjusted as needed. See the Jandy Valve Actuator Installation and Operation Manual, Cam Setting Chart for proper settings.

4.Run the wire to the Power Center, through the low voltage raceway. Cut off excess wire. Strip the wire jacket back 6", then strip each wire ¼". Connect sensor wires to the green, 10-pin terminal bar (see Figure 17).

3.6Jandy Valve Actuators

NOTE Mount the JVAs according to the Jandy Valve Actuator Installation and Operation Manual.

JVA cable is type SJW-A marked water resistant class 3 cable and does not require conduit. Knockouts and Heyco fittings are provided in the Low Voltage Raceway.

1.Route the JVA wire to the Power Center.

2.Run the wire through the low voltage raceway and plug the JVA connectors into their proper sockets (see Section 6. Power Center Wiring Diagram). Verify that the JVA on the suction plumbing is connected to the Intake JVA Socket, and the discharge plumbing is connected to the Return JVA Socket.

3.7PDA Transceiver J-box Installation

Installation Considerations. The transceivers will transmit through walls and around corners. Steel framing, aluminum siding, wrought iron, cyclone fences, leaded glass, and other 900 MHz frequency items may inhibit/prevent communication between the AquaLink RS PDA Handheld Remote and the Power Center. The transceivers do not require line of sight to communicate. To optimize communication, install transceivers in a location that minimizes interference.

3.7.1Outdoor Transceiver J-box Installation

1.Turn off all power to the Power Center.

2.Mount the Outdoor Transceiver J-box at least 6' above the ground and at least 8' from an air blower (see Figure 18).

NOTE To improve performance of the transceiver, mount the J-box more than 6' above the ground.

3.Open the door to the Power Center and remove the dead panel.

4.Feed the four conductor wire into the Power Center through the low voltage raceway.

5.Cut off the excess wire. Strip the jacket back 6" and strip the individual wires approximately ¼". Connect the four conductor wire to the red terminal bar on the Power Center PCB.

6.Install the dead panel to the Power Center and restore all power.
