SunTouch Pool and Spa Control System Installation and User’s Guide
Valves Menu (7/13)
This feature allows you assign a circuit to the extra valve output (Valve C) on the SunTouch motherboard. The
SunTouch system can drive the auxiliary valve actuator for applications such as solar heating and water
features and for freeze protection. By assigning any one of the auxiliary (AUX 1, AUX 2, AUX 3) circuits to
control the valve actuator, you can conserve auxiliary circuits for high voltage relays for controlling pumps and
lights.
Note: When solar heating is enabled in the “Solar” menu (see page 20) and is not configured as a heat
pump, Valve C is dedicated for controlling the solar heating valve actuator. Also, only “SOLAR” is
displayed when solar is enabled. To select other circuits (AUX 1, AUX2, etc.) solar must be switched
off.
Valve Circuit
To assign a circuit to Valve C:
Menu button: Select the Valve menu.
Right button: Select the Valves settings.
Up/Down buttons: Select a circuit to assign to Valve C. The circuits names are:
None, Spa, Pool, AUX 1, AUX 2, AUX 3, Solar, Heater and Freeze (protection).
Note: Freeze protection function protects the pool, plumbing, and equipment
against freeze damage. If the outside air temperature sensor falls below 36° F,
freeze protection is activated and the pool/spa filter pump relay is switched on to
circulate the pool water.
Left button: Press the Left button to return to the main status screen.
