OPERATION
Operation - all models
The wireless remote display/keypad communicates with the base station on the Pro
Logic/Aqua Logic control unit using RF (radio frequency) technology. All of the
display information is transmitted from the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic control unit to the
wireless remote display/keypad and all the button press information is transmitted by
the wireless remote display/keypad unit back to the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic control
unit.
If the display information is not being updated on a regular basis or if the Pro Logic/
Aqua Logic is not responding to buttons being pressed, then refer to the Trouble-
shooting section for assistance in resolving these problems.
When power is turned on to wall mount models, or when the table top models "wake
up", all the LED indicators will flash briefly, the display backlight will illuminate, and
the following display will appear for a short period of time:
The "r04.00" is the software revision level. The actual revision level for your wireless
remote display/keypad may be different. Refer to the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic Opera-
tion Manual for complete operating instructions.
Operation - Table Top models
Because the AQL2-Tx-RF-PS-x and AQL2-Tx-RF-P-4 is battery operated, it displays
various information about its condition and the status of its battery. Refer to the
section below for an explanation of these displays:
Shutting down to
save battery power
After one minute of no button presses, the AQL2-Tx-RF-PS-x and AQL2-Tx-RF-P-4
will briefly show this display and go into "sleep" mode. This mode conserves the
battery power while the remote is not in use. While asleep, all lights and the display
will be off. To "wake" the unit up, push any button on the keypad.
Refreshing display
RFDisplay r04.00
When the AQL2-Tx-RF-PS-x or AQL2-Tx-RF-P-4 "wakes" up, it will show this display
while it collects status information from the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic control unit.
Please plug in to
charge battery
When the battery is low, the Table Top models will alternate between this display and
the normal status display. Under typical conditions, there are at least 50 more one-
minute uses available when this display is first shown. The battery will slowly lose
charge if the unit is not plugged into the wall, even if it is not used.
Battery dead!
Please charge now!
This display is shown briefly, immediately before the unit shuts down. The Table Top
models will not operate again (to protect the battery) until it is plugged into the
charger. It can be used immediately while connected to the charger.
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Can’t find the "Teach Wireless" display:
From the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic con-
trol (or any direct wired display/keypad) press the "menu" button (possibly more
than once) until "Settings Menu" is displayed. Next, press the "<" or ">" but-
tons (possibly more than once) until the "Teach Wireless" display appears. If
you get to the point where "Settings Menu" appears again, then this means that
the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic control unit is not communicating with the base
station. Check that the 4 wire cable from the base station is plugged into the
"wireless" connector on the main printed circuit board. If this connector is
already plugged in (for more than 30 seconds), then call Hayward Technical
Service for assistance.
2. "Teach Wireless" failed:
Ensure that the remote is powered when pressing the
button. This is indicated by any message on the display of the remote. If the
remote is powered, then the next most likely cause is that the distance between
the base station and the remote is too great—try moving the remote closer to the
receiver. Lastly, there may be other equipment in the neighborhood that is using
the same frequency. To see if this is the case, go to the Settings Menu/Wireless
Channel and select another channel. Note that after you change the channel you
will have to "re-teach" every wireless remote device in the system.
3. Unreliable communication with remote devices:
The most likely cause is that
the distance between the base station and the remote is too great—try moving
the remote closer to the base station. Lastly, there may be other equipment in the
neighborhood that is using the same frequency. To see if this is the case, go to
the Settings Menu/Wireless Channel and select another channel. Note that after
you change the channel you will have to "re-teach" every wireless remote device
in the system.
4. Wireless display/keypad not functioning (no display, no LEDs illuminated):
Wall Mount models:
If the display/keypad located on the main unit is working
correctly, check that there is input power to the wireless display/keypad. Make
sure that the wall mount power supply is plugged into an active 120VAC outlet
and its output connector is plugged into the wireless remote display/keypad.
Table Top models:
If the display/keypad located on the main unit is working
correctly, check that there is input power to the wireless display/keypad. Plug
the charger into an active 120VAC outlet and its output connector into the wire-
less remote display/keypad. If this doesn't work, plug charger into the unit, plug
the charger into an active 120VAC outlet, wait 5 seconds, unplug the charger, wait
5 seconds, and then plug it back in again.
