External Control with IntelliComm
®
Communication Center
Use the RS-485 communications cable to remotely
control the IntelliFloXF
®
Variable Speed Pump from an
IntelliComm
communication center. The IntelliComm
communication center provides four (4) pairs of input
terminal connections. These inputs are actuated by
either 15 - 240 VAC or 15 - 100 VDC. Use the device
inputs, to control the programmed pump speeds.
Note:
For the pump to accept commands from the
IntelliComm communication center, the pump must be
in the “Running Schedules” mode (LED above Start/
Stop button is on). If more than one input is active, the
highest number will be communicated to the pump.
The IntelliComm communication center will always
communicate to pump using ADDRESS #1.
Refer back to page 12 for instructions for setting up
Programs in the External Control menu.
External Control is for programming speeds that will
run when the IntelliComm communication center
controller sends it a command.
For example, Terminal 3 and 4 in IntelliComm system
will correspond to External Control Program #1. (5
and 6 to Ext Ctrl #2). Use the External Control feature
to program the IntelliComm communication center.

Program Number Priority
If programs 1 and 2 are activated, program 2 will
run, regardless of the assigned speed (RPM). The
higher program number will always take priority.

Control Systems
The pump can be controlled by an EasyTouch or
IntelliTouch
control system via the RS-485 communication
cable. The EasyTouch and/or IntelliTouch control
system starts, stops and controls the speed of the pump.
EasyTouch and/or IntelliTouch systems rewrite the pump
memory when a command is given. This can take several
seconds and can cause a delay until the pump physically
responds.
The pump control panel is disabled when communicating
with an EasyTouch and/or IntelliTouch system.
The
EasyTouch and/or IntelliTouch system will not start
communicating with the pump until the pump is
assigned to a circuit.
The default pump address is “1”
(only address for EasyTouch system).
Wiring Terminal Descriptions for IntelliComm
Communication Center
See page 8 for details about how to check and or set
the pump address. For more information, refer to the
IntelliTouch (P/N 520100) or EasyTouch automation
system User’s Guide (P/N 520584).
