    Operation: the indoor controller serves as a means of entering and viewing information for equipment settings. All programs, labels, etc., are held in a memory chip on the power center printed circuit board. Power is not required to maintain programs, etc. - they will be held indefinitely. The contr...

    Power center operation: the power center pcb is the true brain of the system. The micro-controller on the pcb is constantly sending signals through the communication wires to the controller and polling the system to determine which circuits should be on and which should be off. When an equipment but...

    A standard relay's coil is supplied 24 vdc from the power center pcb via one of the two driver chips. When 24 vdc is received by the relay's coil wires, it closes the contacts that complete the circuit to turn on the equipment (i.E., power supplied to line 1 goes out load 1 to the equipment). Standa...

    Operation: the two speed relay operates in conjunction with a standard relay to operate a two speed pump/motor. The standard relay is the on/off relay and the two speed relay is the switching relay. Activating the relay coil for the standard relay will complete the contact circuit between line 1 and...

    Operation: the controller signals the light dimming relay to turn ‘fully on”, “partially dimmed”, or “completely off” by sending a specific number of pulses in a set period of time to the light dimming relay. The circuitry of the light dimming relay (which requires 120 vac to operate) then interpret...

    Operation : one leg of a 24 vac transformer secondary supplies voltage to the common terminal of a spdt (single-pole, double-throw) relay. The nc (normally closed) terminal of that relay is connected to the red wire of the jva cord, and the no (normally open) terminal is connected to the white wire ...

    Caution: always turn off all circuits and then turn off power before moving dip switches. If aux 1, 2, or 3 were programmed to operate automatically, clear the programs before turning on the appropriate clip switch. All dip switches are located on the left side of the power center bezel. To change a...

    Spa side switch buttons send a momentary signal to the power center pcb. Each button sends a signal down one wire with the circuit completed through the common wire. The operation of each button may be tested by disconnecting the spa side switch from the pcb and with a meter set to continuity measur...

    There are two dip switches on the telelink printed circuit board. Dip switch 1 allows the number of rings before the telelink "picks up" to be set, and dip switch 2 allows the access code to be changed from the factory default (62). To change either setting, turn on the dip switch for the item you w...
