REMOTE CONTROL INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

CAUTION: Before installing remote controls to the digital thermostat model heaters read the following:

The digital thermostat model is remote-ready in most cases. The digital liquid crystal display (LCD) shows the actual pool temperature, operating status, and service codes (See examples below). The touch pad on the con- trol panel allows you to select the desired pool or spa temperature. It also indicates when a remote system is controlling the heater by displaying REM in the display. When connecting the heater to a remote system, iden- tify whether it is a two- or three-wire remote system. Select the appropriate instruction listed below to properly install the remote to the heater.

REMOTE OPERATION

The digital model heaters are equipped with the ability to work with external remote controls. The supplied 7- pin remote wiring connector supplies power out to either a toggle switch or the switch contacts of a third party remote. The remote works by either making or breaking the circuit created by the remote wiring. Typically, a remote does not supply power to the heater, it only provides a switching function to turn the heater On or Off. If your remote is suppling its own voltage to the heater, it will not work with this heater and may damage the digital circuit board.

NOTE: When in remote operation, the keypad mode and temp buttons are disabled. Remote will flash even when the unit is off.

Note: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage can be caused by direct or indirect contact with the wiring or circuit board. When one walks to the heater area, an electrostatic charge accumu- lates on the body. Contact of a finger allows the body to dis- charge, possibly causing device damage. This damage can be limited if the service person discharges himself, following ESD preventive/removal practices, and holds on to the heater enclo- sure for 5 seconds before proceeding.
