EasyTouch System Test

The following describes how to test the main control panel to activate the heater, valves and pumps. Before testing the system, be sure that all pool and spa equipment has been properly installed and connected to the EasyTouch load center.

Testing Valve Actuators and Filter Pump

Use the following steps to test the valve actuators (CVA24T) for proper rotation.

To test the valve actuators and pump:

1.Power up the EasyTouch load center.

2.Press the Mode button on the main control panel. The display shows “SERVICE”.

3.Press the Valve (V) button to select POOL.

4.Press the Filter Pump (F) button to activate the filter pump. Water will be removed from the pool and returned to the pool.

4.Repeat steps 3 and 4 selecting Fill (Spillway) then Drain.

5.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.

Note: With the filter pump operating, if the water is not being removed and returned to the pool, check that the valve actuator plugs are connected correctly on the motherboard.

Testing the auxiliary relays

Affix the auxiliary relay labels to the appropriate AUX buttons on the EasyTouch control panel to identify the connected equipment.

Press the Mode button to enable “Service” pool mode. Press the Filter Pump button (LED on) and each auxiliary (AUX) circuit button, the Heater and Solar buttons to verify the functions. Press the Mode button twice to return the system to “AUTO” mode when done.
