Super Chlorinate
The Aqua Plus 16v can be programmed to Super Chlorinate the pool or spa while running a group command.
When the Group starts, the Super Chlorinate cycle will begin. Super Chlorinate will continue until the preset time
expires (see Timers Menu/Super Chlorinate Hours) or until the Group turns off. Changing the Super Chlorinate
state using the Settings Menu, the Aqua Pod Super Chlorinate button, or a Super Chlorinate assigned Aux/Lights/
Valve button will temporarily cancel the Group’s control of Super Chlorinate until the next time the Group is
activated.
Variable Speed in Groups
The Aqua Plus 16v can be programmed to use alternate pump speeds while running group commands. This allows
the pump(s) to be set to a higher or lower speed than normal, while the group is activated. When the group stops,
the speed will return to its normal setting.
Changing the speed setting while the group is running will make the group release the alternate speed setting and
revert back to the normal speed setting. Any changes that are made at that point will affect the normal speed
setting. The next time the group is activated, the speed will return to the group speed setting that was originally
programmed in the Configuration Menu. To change the speed setting while the group is running, go to the Settings
menu and press the +/- button while “Group Control” is displayed. The speed setting will change to the normal
speed setting.
Virtual Buttons
The Aqua Plus 16v offers 8 auxiliary outputs with limited functionality. These aux outputs (7-14) can only be
assigned to the Super Chlorinate function (if the Chlorinator is enabled), ColorLogic Lights control or to a Group
function. Refer to the following programming information when assigning functions to the virtual auxiliary outputs.
Configuration Menus
Each item needs to be programmed and may contain additional sub-menu items. Refer to the following pages for
information on programming.

Chlorinator
The Aqua Plus 16v is shipped with the chlorinator enabled. The cell and flow switch must be installed
and the Aqua Plus 16v will automatically chlorinate both the pool and spa according to the desired
output setting (see Settings Menu in the Operation manual). If disabled, all displays relating to the
chlorinator will be suppressed.
When the chlorinator is enabled, the Aqua Plus 16v will automatically detect and control any Aqua
Rite(s) that is installed in the system.
Display
Allows for the display of salt (default) or mineral values.
Cell Type Selection
The Cell Type Menu appears after “Display Salt/Minerals” in the Chlorinator Configuration Menu.
The options are T-CELL-15 (default), T-CELL-9, T-CELL-5 or T-CELL-3. Make the proper selection
based on the chlorinator cell that is used in your system. Refer to the information below.
"T-CELL-3" = T-CELL-3, GLX-CELL-3-W
"T-CELL-5" = GLX-CELL-5, GLX-CELL-5-W
"T-CELL-9" = T-CELL-9, GLX-CELL-9-W
"T-CELL-15" = T-CELL-15, GLX-CELL-15-W

Group
– the valve operates when the Group function is initiated and shuts off when the Group
function is terminated. See valve3 Group section for operation information for the Group function.
Super Chlorinate
– The Super Chlorinate function can be assigned to any Aux, Lights or Valve
button. This allows the user to simply hit a button to start a Super Chlorinate cycle, rather than using
the Settings Menu. Note that only one button can me assigned to this function.
Valve3 Interlock
If “Enabled”, this feature will override the function (timeclock, manual on/off, countdown timer or in-
floor cleaner) selected above and turn the valve off whenever the filter pump is off or the pool/spa
suction/return valves are set to “spa only” or “spillover” operation. Interlock is not available with
solar, group or super chlorinate.
Valve3 Group
The valve3 Group function allows the user to perform multiple tasks with a single push of the VALVE3
button. When setting up a Group function, refer to page 15 for specific programming information.
There are two Group menus; the first menu determines how the group command will be initiated
(Manual On/Off, Countdown Timer, or Timeclock) and the second menu selects the desired functions
and their respective control parameters.
When activating Group functions, be aware that the most recent Group function that is initiated will
override any previous Group function.
Valve3 External Input Interlock
When Valve3 External Input Interlock is enabled, the Valve3 output will be forced off when the external
input is active. This will have precedence over freeze protection. Valve3 External Input Interlock is not
available for solar, group, and super chlorinate.
Valve3 Freeze Protection
This function protects the pool and plumbed equipment against freeze damage. If Freeze Protection
is enabled and the AIR temperature falls sensor falls below the selected freeze protection temperature,
the Aqua Plus 16v will turn on the valve to allow circulation of the water. IMPORTANT: this only
enables operation of the valve3 output during freeze--see the “Filter Pump Config.” menu to enable
freeze protection for the main circulation system. Freeze protection is not available for group or super
chlorinate functions.
Valve3 Pump Speed
This is the speed of the pump when the Valve3 output is on. The default selection is “Settings Menu”.
This is the speed of the pump that has been selected in the Settings Menu for normal filter operation.
If an alternate speed is desired when the Valve3 output is on, push “+” or “-” and select from “Filter
Lowest” to “Filter Highest” in 5% increments.
