Valves Menu (7/14)
The valves feature allows you assign a circuit to the extra valve output (Valve C) on the SunTouch
®
Control
System motherboard. The SunTouch
Control System can drive the auxiliary valve actuator for applications
such as solar heating and water features and for freeze protection. By assigning any one of the auxiliary (AUX
1, AUX 2, AUX 3, FEATURE 1 - 4) circuits to control the valve actuator, you can conserve auxiliary circuits
for high voltage relays for controlling pumps and lights.
Note:
When solar heating is enabled in the “Solar” menu (see page 20) and is not configured as a heat pump,
Valve C is dedicated for controlling the solar heating valve actuator. Also, only “USED SOLAR” is displayed
when solar is enabled. To select other circuits (AUX 1, AUX 2, FEATURE 1 - 4, etc.) solar must be switched
off.
VALVE CIRCUIT
To assign a circuit to Valve C:
Menu button:
Select the
Valve 7/14
menu.
Right button:
Select the Valves Circuit setting.
Up/Down buttons:
Select a circuit to assign to Valve C. The circuits names are:
NONE, SPA, POOL, AUX 1, AUX 2, AUX 3, FEATURES 1 - 4, SOLAR, HEATER
and FREEZE (circuit protection).
Note: “USED SOLAR” displays when solar is enabled in the “solar” menu, therefore
no other circuits are available. For more information, see page 20.
Note: Freeze protection function protects the pool, plumbing, and equipment against
freeze damage. If the outside air temperature sensor falls below 36° F, freeze
protection is activated and the pool/spa filter pump relay is switched on to circulate
the pool water.
