CONNECTING TO AN AUTOMATION SYSTEM
Remote Operation
The UltraTemp
Heat Pump may be connected to an
®
automation system via the remote spade terminals on
the back of the control board (see page 12-13) or via the
RS-485 communication connector on the back of the
control board (see page 14-15). Refer to the IntelliTouch
or EasyTouch
Control System installation and user's
®
guide for more information.
Note: Remote connection via the RS-485 connector is
only available on IntelliTouch and EasyTouch software
version 1.11 or higher. All other automation packages
must connect via the ¼ in. "Spade" terminals (spade
terminals not supplied).
Relay Remote Controls
Electrical wiring must be in accordance with the latest
edition of the NEC (NFPA 70) in the United States
and CEC (CSA 22.1) in Canada, unless local code
requirements indicate otherwise.
To connect remote control equipment to the heat
pump, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off the power to both the remote pool/spa control
system and the heat pump.
2. Remove the front left panel of the heat pump cabinet,
(you do not need to remove the star-head screw at
the top left corner).
3. Remove the electrical service panel to the heat pump.
Remove the 4 bezel retaining screws from above
the electrical compartment and rotate the bezel
downward. This will allow you to access the Remote
terminals on the back of the heat pump control board
for the remote control installation.
