Indicator LEDs 

 
There are three (3) x indicator LEDs on the 
SmartLINK module which identify the status of the 
WiFi module. These LEDs can be seen through the 
clear window on the front of the unit (refer aside 
picture). The definition of the LEDs is as follows:  
 

Connection Status (Green led): TCP/IP status  

On - for an active connection  

Fast flash - indicates no IP address assigned or is command mode 

Slow flash - indicates that the IP address is OK but no TCP connection 

 

Associated (Red LED): association status 

Fast Flash - module is not associated with a network  

Off – indicates that it is associated and Internet access is OK 

 

Data Transfer (Blue LED): On when data is transferred 

 

 

By default when the SmartLINK module is first connected to the SV controller it should be in hot 

spot mode ready to be configured by the SpaLINK smart device app. The indicator LEDs will be 

flashing green and red.

WiFi Internet Access Required 

 
The SmartLINK WiFi module requires an active Internet connection via a wireless 
router to operate. To be able to access your spa from anywhere, at any time, the 
Internet connection/router must remain powered on at all times. 

The stronger the WiFi signal to the spa area the faster the app will respond. In some situations, 
dependant on the location and proximity of the spa pool and wireless router, the WiFi signal 
may need to be boosted by relocating your wireless router, installing a WiFi range extender 
close to the spa or connecting a SMA extension cable to the SmartLINK module to enable the 
WiFi antenna to be installed external to the spa cabinet.  

Before running the smart device App setup procedure ensure you are aware of your WiFi routers 
SSID name and have the router password on hand. Please remember that your router password 
is case sensitive and MUST be entered 100% correct during the setup process for a successful 
connection. If the password is entered incorrectly during the setup process, the whole setup 
process will have to be completed again.
