Which Relay is it Wired to?
Touching the box will bring you to a table showing all detected relays. Select the relay that is connected to the accessory
and touch the Done button. The relay should now be shown in the box and you can advance to the next screen to continue the accessory configuration.
NOTE: Do not use the OmniPL to control fire pits or any other fire related equipment.
Would You Like to Add an Interlock?
An interlock will allow the OmniPL to turn on or off pool equipment (affected) based on the state of other pool equipment
(monitored). An example of this is would be the desire to turn on walkway lighting (affected) every time the pool deck lights (monitored) are turned on. This
equipment could have been wired together to accomplish the same function, but by interlocking the walkway lights to the deck lights, you’ll maintain the ability
to turn on the walkway lights independently. An interlock can also control pool equipment based on the state of a temperature sensor, flow switch or external
input (normally open/closed switch). An example of this would be to turn on a cabana fan (affected) whenever the outside temperature sensor reads above 90ºF.
Or, turning on a bug lamp (affected) when a photo sensor (monitored) detects that it is dusk.
If Yes is selected:
Select an Interlock Type -
From this screen, select the type of interlock that you would like to configure. The choices are: Equipment to Equipment,
Equipment to Sensor, Equipment to Mode, Theme to Sensor, Spillover to External Input and Pool Cover Interlock. Note that interlocks are only select-
able if the equipment/features used in that interlock are available. For example, if there are no Themes configured, the Theme to Sensor interlock is
not selectable.
If Equipment to Equipment is selected:
To configure the interlock, you’ll be asked a series of questions. The questions will vary depending on the equipment that will be configured
and cannot all be covered in this manual. In general, you’ll select equipment that will be monitored and equipment that will be affected.
The equipment could be pumps, valves, heaters, lights, etc. The affected equipment will activate/deactivate depending on the state of
the monitored equipment. Advance through the configuration and when finished, a summary screen will be displayed. The summary will
describe how the interlocked equipment will function. Read through the description and make sure the equipment will function as desired.
If Equipment to Sensor is selected:
This interlock is similar to above, but the monitored equipment will be a sensor. The monitored sensor can be any sensor, flow switch or
external input that has been configured for use with the OmniPL. The affected equipment will activate/deactivate depending on the state of
the monitored sensor. For flow switch sensors, affected equipment will turn on/off when the flow switch detects flow or no flow. For tem-
perature sensors, affected equipment will activate/deactivate when the temperature is higher or lower than a desired setpoint. For external
inputs, affected equipment will turn on/off when the switch is actuated. Advance through the configuration and when finished, a summary
screen will be displayed. The summary will describe how the interlocked equipment will function. Read through the description and make
sure the equipment will function as desired.
If Equipment to Mode is selected:
With Equipment to Mode interlock, affected equipment will activate/deactivate based on which mode the OmniPL is in; Pool, Spa or Spillover.
You can configure this interlock to turn on/off equipment whenever the OmniPL goes into one of these available modes. Advance through
the configuration and when finished, a summary screen will be displayed. The summary will describe how the interlocked equipment will
function. Read through the description and make sure the equipment will function as desired.
If Theme to Sensor is selected (at least one Theme must be configured, see Operation Manual):
This interlock is similar to the Equipment to Sensor interlock but a Theme is affected instead. As explained in the Operation manual, Themes
are created to execute many pool functions with a single button. With a Theme to Sensor interlock, the Theme will run or stop depending
on the state of the monitored sensor. For flow switch sensors, the Theme will run or stop when the flow switch detects flow or no flow.
For temperature sensors, the Theme will run or stop when the temperature is higher or lower than a desired setpoint. For external inputs,
the Theme will run or stop when the switch is actuated. Advance through the configuration and when finished, a summary screen will be
displayed. The summary will describe how the interlocked Theme will function. Read through the description and make sure the equipment
will function as desired.
If Spillover to External Input is selected (requires that you have an external input configured):
This interlock prevents Spillover mode when an external input (most commonly a pool cover sensor) is actuated. By interlocking Spillover to
the pool cover sensor, you’ll ensure that water cannot spill into the pool when the cover is in the closed position. A summary screen will be
displayed after configuring this interlock. Read through the description and make sure the interlock will function as desired.
If Pool Cover Interlock is selected (if using an automatic pool cover):
This interlock makes it easy to assign specific pool settings when the cover is closed. Pump speed, heater temperature and chlorination
percentage can all be preset for periods when the pool cover sensor (external input) detects that the cover is closed. Some or all of these
options may not appear if you don’t have a variable speed pump, heater or if not using chlorination. An alternative to this interlock is using
a Theme to Sensor interlock. Create a Theme using desired settings when the pool cover is closed, then interlock the Theme to the pool
cover sensor. A summary screen will be displayed after configuring this interlock. Read through the description and make sure the interlock
will function as desired.
