Section 9. External Heater Control (non-‐Genus)
9.1
If a non AstralPool heater is installed or a non Genus compliant heater (such as AstralPool
heat pumps), the Viron Connect system can be configured to operate and control the heater
from the touchscreen. If you have a AstralPool compliant gas heater installed, do not
proceed with the following steps.
9.2
One channel of the Viron Connect controller must be allocated to control the On/Off
function of the heater. This can be any of channels 1 though 8.
9.3
To operate this feature, you must purchase a Viron Connect Temperature Sensor Kit. This
can be purchased through any AstralPool dealer.
9.4
To install and operate an external heater;
i.
Proceed through Touchscreen installation setup (Section 7 of this manual) and at
point 8, select No to Genus heater and Yes to use relay board for temperature
sensing.
ii.
Continue through setup until you are asked to set up the channel you are using for
controlling the heater. For the channel function, select “Heater Controlled Power”
iii.
Continue through remaining installation setup
iv.
The temperature sensor for the controller must be installed in the system plumbing
prior to the heater. The sensor kit is supplied with a 50mm PVC coupling to allow
easy installation. The sensor probe must be plugged into the Viron Connect
controller in the low voltage area.
Note: If the solar feature of the Viron Connect
system is being used, you cannot operate the external heater function. Please
contact AstralPool for further advise if this situation arises
.
v.
For heaters supplied with a 10A cable, plug the appliance into the corresponding
channel of the Viron Connect (channel that was nominated “Heater Controlled
Power”). For appliances rated in excess of 10A (such as heat pumps), an electrician
will be required to configure a relay/contactor setup to allow correct operation.
vi.
Set the temperature on the heater thermostat to its maximum setting. Once
configured the Viron Connect will control temperature making the thermostat on
the heater redundant.
vii.
On the Viron Connect touchscreen, select the “Heating” icon from the main menu.
You can now select heater On or Off and adjust the temperature up and down. Once
temperature is achieved, the Connect controller will cut power to the heater to
prevent any further rise in temperature.
Section 10. Standard Solar control – operating a motorized valve
10.1
During Installation if select Basic Solar then ithe Connect 10 will ask if the Filter
pump is required to run when the solar is on. If you want to use valves to divert
water to the solar collector (instead of a separate pump) you need to answer Yes to
this.
10.2
Later in the set up menus you are asked what function you wish to assign to the
motorized valves: "Nothing, Pool Equipment or Solar". Select solar for one of the
valves will map that valve to the solar controller.
