Introduction
The Hayward Light Controller offers a dedicated solution
for controlling your ColorLogic LED pool and spa lights
from a convenient remote location. It’s designed to install
into a standard wall electrical box and is wired to the high
voltage side of the ColorLogic light’s transformer. Once
installed, the Light Controller can be used to fully control
your pool and spa lights. Turn lights on/off and change to
fixed colors or shows using the Light Controller’s rotary
knob and front buttons.

Total allowable light wattage for the Light Controller is 300
watts. A combination of various lights can be used but
total wattage must not exceed 300 watts. Refer to your
ColorLogic light’s power consumption when determining
how many lights to use with the Light Controller. An

Any combination that does not exceed 300 watts
IMPORTANT:
Add the individual wattage for each light
and do not exceed 300 watts.
Before you Begin
Set your ColorLogic lights to “UCL mode” BEFORE installing
the Light Controller (refer to your light’s manual). If not in
“UCL mode”, the ColorLogic lights will not operate properly
after the Light Controller is installed.
NOTE: The Light Controller requires a Neutral connection
to operate. If retrofitting into an existing installation, make
sure that the electrical box contains a Neutral connection.
Installation
Mounting Location
The Light Controller installs into a standard electrical
outlet box. When determining a suitable location, consider
that wiring from the Light Controller must connect to the
primary side of the light’s low voltage transformer.
Note that the Light Controller is designed for indoor
use but can be mounted outdoors if a suitable UL rated
weatherproof outlet box and cover are used.

Turn the lights on by briefly pushing in the CENTER KNOB.
To turn off, push on the CENTER KNOB and hold for 3
seconds. The Light Controller may indicate that it’s “busy”
by cycling through all LEDs in a circular pattern. This is
normal operation and occurs whenever the Light Controller
is busy processing a request. Let the Light Controller come
out of this state before continuing.

Lever action terminal blocks are in-
cluded to aid in installation. Move
levers to the fully open position when
inserting wires. Close the levers to
lock the wires in place.
Connect the Light Controller’s green wire to ground using
a lever action terminal block that is supplied. The Light
Controller comes with a plug-in wiring harness for easy
installation and removal. All wiring connections should
be made directly to the harness using the additional lever
action terminal blocks. After wiring is complete, the harness
can be plugged into the back of the Light Controller. It
can then be secured into the electrical box. Refer to the
following diagram for wiring connections.
Operation
After wiring is complete, turn on power at the circuit
breaker that is connected to Light Controller. The Light
Controller will initiate communication with the ColorLogic
lights. This may take a minute or two as the lights will
cycle between colors and finally default to the Voodoo
Lounge light show. The Light Controller will indicate this
in the PREVIEW WINDOW.
Refer to the following information for operation and control
of your ColorLogic lights.
Onboard pushbuttons
For best results, press on the outside of pushbuttons.
SHOW/COLOR -this is the default mode and
