Section 1
EasyTouch System Overview
EasyTouch® Pool and Spa Control System Overview
Welcome to the EasyTouch Pool and Spa Control system − The next generation in automatic control systems.
The EasyTouch 8 or EasyTouch 4 system allows you to automatically control all of your spa and pool daily
operations. Pool and spa service operations can be manually controlled from the EasyTouch outdoor control
panel located at the pool equipment pad. Also available is the optional Indoor Control Panel and wireless
control panel which allows automatic control of pool and spa operations from inside you home or outside
around your pool area.

The EasyTouch 8 or EasyTouch 4 system can control high voltage (120 VAC / 240 VAC) equipment,
automatic valve actuators, pumps, lighting, a conventional heater or a solar heating system and the optional
IntelliChlor salt chlorine generator.

Operating EasyTouch
The EasyTouch system is designed to automatically control your pool and spa equipment, lights and other
optional equipment. However, you can also manually control all EasyTouch system operations from the outdoor
control panel. Using the “Mode” button, the system can be switched from “Auto” mode (normal operating
mode) to “Service” mode for manual operation and service purposes. Using the outdoor control panel buttons
you can manually override any automatic settings. If required, the EasyTouch outdoor control panel can be
password protected. To access a password protected control panel, the correct four digit password must be
entered before access is granted (see page 49).

EasyTouch Systems
There are two EasyTouch system configurations available; EasyTouch 8 (auxiliary circuits) and EasyTouch 4
(auxiliary circuits). The EasyTouch system is factory configured to operate with a “shared” equipment system
or with a “single body” system. For EasyTouch 4 and EasyTouch 8 menu settings, see page 15.

IntelliChlor® Electronic Chlorine Generator


The optional IntelliChlor salt chlorination system allows the EasyTouch system to automatically control water
sanitization by using a low concentration of salt (sodium chloride) in the pool and spa water. The IntelliChlor is
enabled from the “IntelliChlor” Settings menu (see page 35). IntelliChlor automatically converts the salt into
free chlorine which eliminate bacteria and algae in the pool and spa water. The chlorine will then revert back
to sodium chloride after killing the bacteria. The outcome of this continuous cycle, practically eliminates the
need to use sanitizing chemicals in the pool/spa water. When the pool and spa water is replenished due to
backwashing or draining, more salt may need to be added to the pool/spa water.

IntelliChlor model IC20 (P/N 520554/520556) is designed for swimming pools


up to 20,000 U.S. gallons (75,000 liters). Model IC40 (P/N 520555/520556) is
designed for swimming pools up to 40,000 U.S. gallons (151,000 liters). The
pool chlorination amounts may vary depending on number of pool occupants,
temperature, environment conditions, rainfall and other elements that might
affect the pool water.

Controls and buttons (Continued)

➇ Valves (V) - (Pool/Spa/Fill (Spillway)/Drain) button: When in normal operating mode, the
Valves (V) button is in “Pool” mode. In this mode the valves are automatically rotated so that
only the pool water is circulated through the system and the filter pump is activated. Pressing this
button once enables “Spa” mode and activates the filter pump to circulate only spa water
through the system. “Fill/Spillway” and “Drain” mode can only be used while in “Service” mode
(See Mode button for details). “Fill/Spillway” and “Drain” mode are used when cleaning the spa.
Pressing the Valves (V) button again returns the system to “Pool” mode. Note that the filter
pump will switch off while the pool/spa valves are rotating into position. The current operating
mode is shown in the LCD display. Note: The Valves button (Pool, Spa, Fill (Spillway),
Drain) button has no function in “Pool only” or “Spa only” systems. For an EasyTouch
single body system, “Pool” and “Spa” modes are Lo- Temp (Pool) and Hi-Temp (Spa)
temperature controls. For more information, see “Hi-Temp/Lo-Temp Controls for Single
Body Systems,” page 37.

➈ Aux 1 - 7 buttons/LEDs: Auxiliary output circuit buttons operate the pool and spa system valves,
lights and other equipment. These auxiliary circuits are assigned in the “Circuit Function” menu, see
page 39 for details. There are three auxiliary circuits (AUX 1- 3) on the EasyTouch 4 outdoor
control panel and seven auxiliary circuits (AUX 1- 7) on EasyTouch 8 outdoor control panel. The
Solar button can also be used for an “extra” auxiliary circuit if the Solar circuit is not being for solar
equipment. Labels can be affixed next to each auxiliary button to identify the circuit function. Labels
can be affixed over each auxiliary button to identify the circuit function. When an auxiliary circuit is
activated or the button is pressed, the LED is on. Pressing an auxiliary circuit button will activate the
corresponding circuit in either “Auto” or “Service” mode. When a circuit relay is switched on
manually, it remains on until either you switch it off manually, or the next time the relay is scheduled
to be switched off. For example, if the filter pump is scheduled to automatically run from 9:00 AM to
5:00 PM daily then the filter pump is switched on manually at 9:00 PM, it will run continuously until
the next day at 6:00 PM then switch off. The schedule will then continue from then on.

➉ Heater (Flame) button/LED: This button is only used in “Service” mode for manual heat on and off
control. The Heater LED will be on if “Heater” is enabled in the “Heat” menu setting (see page 25).
Switching the heater on automatically controls the output between a “forced off” state and a normal
automatic thermostatic control operating state. The heater will continue heating the water until the
heater’s current highest set point temperature triggers the heater sensor (approximately 104° F).
Note that the Heater button does not activate the pump. Do not activate the heater without running
the pump. The heater will not run if water flow is not detected.
Solar (Sun) button/LED and (Aux Extra): In solar mode this button is only used in “Service” mode
for manual solar heat on and off control. The Solar LED will be on if “Solar” is enabled in the
“Heat” menu setting. Solar must also be enabled in the “Solar” menu. Use the Solar button to
manually switch the heater control output between a “forced off” state and a normal automatic
thermostatic control operating state. When this button is pressed the solar relay is switched on to
activate a booster pump if installed and activates valves to rotate to divert water through solar
heating panels. If solar equipment is not being used, this button can also be used to switch the AUX
EXTRA circuit on and off.
Reset button: Press this button to reinitialize the EasyTouch outdoor control panel.

IntelliChlor status LED and circuit breaker (SCG system only): When the LED is on, it indicates
that the IntelliChlor cell is powered on. The circuit breaker opens in case the circuit is shorted or
overloaded. Press circuit breaker to reset power to the IntelliChlor.

Delay Cancel Menu


Use the Delay Cancel feature for service or testing purposes. For convenience, on a onetime basis, the Delay
Cancel feature will cancel the following safety delays. Please note, generally there is no need to cancel any of
the following delays except for servicing or testing the system.

• Heater Cool-Down Delay Cancel: Shuts Filter Pump off immediately.


• 2-Speed Filter Pump five-minute START on HIGH SPEED Delay Cancel: Shifts pump to low
speed.
• Automatic Pool Cleaner START Delay: Starts Cleaner Pump immediately, without normal delay in
which the filter pump first runs for 5 minutes.
• Automatic Pool Cleaner SOLAR Delay: Allows Cleaner Pump to run even though solar delay has
shut it off for 5 minutes.
Some heaters require a cool-down cycle before being switched off. This can be setup in the menu to run the
filter pump an additional ten minutes to dissipate residual heat built up inside the heater combustion chamber.
The Delay Cancel feature is mainly for use by service technicians when it’s necessary to shut the filter pump
off immediately, and know the heater has not been running. Heaters manufactured by Pentair Water Pool and
Spa do not require this cool-down period and do not need the delay to be set up.

Note: For Information about assigning delays to the pool and spa valves, refer to “Settings Menu:
Delays” on page 43.

Schedules Menu (Continued)


Schedule your spa/pool pump to turn on

Use the Schedule feature to set the time and day(s) when to switch the filter pump on and rotate the pool or
spa valves into the “Spa” or “Pool” position. The heater will automatically heat the spa or pool water up to the
set point temperature as set in the “Heat” menu (see page 25). If the pool has a separate jet pump or blower
controlled by AUX 1 and/or AUX 2 , these need to be scheduled separately.

Schedule Example
When a circuit relay is switched on manually, it remains on until you either switch it off manually, or the next
time the relay is scheduled to be switched off. For example, if the filter pump or any circuit is scheduled to run
from 9AM to 4 PM and the programmed schedule is turned OFF at 1:00 PM and then turned on at 1:10 PM,
the circuit will turn OFF at its programmed OFF time of 4:00 PM. But if the circuit is turned on after 4:00 PM,
the factory set Egg Timer of 12 hours is now engaged. So if the circuit was turned on at 6:00 PM that circuit
will turn off at 6:00 AM (12 hours later). If the circuit was turned ON at 5:00 PM and because a programmed
OFF time had been set to turn off at 4:00 PM, the circuit would operate for 11 hours. A spa or pool program
can be overridden using the Spa button or Pool button to switch the circuit on. If you program the start and
stop times the same, the schedule will run for 24 hours if scheduled to run for one day. In “Service” mode, a
pool or spa program can be overridden using the Filter (F) button and pool/spa Valves (V) button on the
outdoor control panel in the EasyTouch load center. Note: The following example describes how to use the
“Schedule” feature to program the spa circuit to switch the filter pump on and rotate the valves into the
“Spa” position and switch the heater on. This example can also be used to program when to filter and
heat your pool, and switch light or auxiliary circuits on or off.

Using the Once Only feature


The “Once Only” feature allows you to program a circuit to switch on at a particular time and day on a
onetime basis. A typical use for this feature is to have the spa and heater switch on before you get home from
work for one evening. Unlike the regular “Schedule” timer, this feature does not repeat. After this event has
finished, the program is automatically erased. The circuit must be switched off manually or wait for the 12
hour automatic shut off. If you wish to override the 12 hour default shut-off time you can extend the time by
using the “Egg Timer” countdown feature (page 30).

Note: The following example describes how use the “Once Only” feature to program the spa circuit to
switch the filter pump on and rotate the valves into the “Spa” position and switch the heater on for one
time only. This example can also be used if you wanted to program when to filter and heat your pool,

Using the Egg Timer (countdown) Feature


The “Egg Timer” feature allows you switch off a circuit automatically after a specified time. The time period
is from one minute to 24 hours or run continuously. The “Egg Timer” (countdown) feature is useful for
switching off lighting and spa therapy jets. For example, a jet pump can be setup to switch off in 15 minutes,
even if you switch it on using the iS4 or iS10 Spa-Side remote control or whenever you switch your spa on,
you would like it to automatically switch it off in two hours. All Egg Timer programs are factory set to switch
off after 12 hours. You also have the option to use the “Don’t Stop” feature to run a circuit continuously until
manually switched off.

In the event of a power failure, the “Egg Timer” feature will not switch the circuit back on. Use the “Service”
mode to turn the equipment back on. Refer to “Mode button,” page 4 for more information. For running the
filter pump continuously during new pool start up, it is recommended to use the “Service” mode, which will
automatically restart the filter pump in the event of a power failure.

The following example describes how use the “Once Only” feature to program the spa circuit to switch the
filter pump on and rotate the valves into the “Spa” position and switch the heater on for one time only. This
example can also be used if you wanted to program when to filter and heat your pool, and switch light or

Settings Menu: Circuit Names


Labeling Circuit Buttons in the EasyTouch Load Center

EasyTouch is factory configured to display each output circuit by its generic name (e.g. AUX 1, AUX 2, etc.).
These generic circuit auxiliary names can be assigned a new names which are more descriptive of the
equipment being controlled. This makes it much easier to operate all of the pool, spa and lighting equipment
without having to memorize what each output controls.

For circuit identification, adhesive backed circuit name labels are provided for placement next to each auxiliary
control panel button. Use the written list of circuit names (buttons) that you made while setting up the
EasyTouch system load center. Identify what you labeled circuit button 1, button 2 etc. The circuit names you
assign should match the labels you put on the EasyTouch load center control panel buttons and/or the optional
Indoor Control Panel buttons. Note that examples shown below use the factory set generic output names
displayed in the EasyTouch control panel menus.

Assigning Circuit Functions


From the “Circuit Functions” menu you can assign special logic to the cleaner pump, spa spillway, lights and
MagicStream laminar circuits. For example, when setting up an automatic pool cleaner pump, you would
assign the circuit function “MASTER CLEANER.” With this "Cleaner" logic the cleaner pump would force
the filter pump on, and the cleaner pump would start after a delay of five minutes. The cleaner pump would
automatically shut off whenever the spa and/or solar is switched on.

Freeze Protection
Freeze protection switches on a circuit if the outside air temperature sensor detects the temperature is getting
close to freezing (below 35° F). The system will switch on all circuits that have been assigned freeze
protection, and runs the circuits for 15 minutes to stop the pipes from freezing. This is especially important if
there is a pool and spa combination. If freeze protection is set to both the spa and pool circuits, the filter pump
switches on and the pool and spa valves alternate every 15 minutes to keep the water moving in both the pool
and spa. This process continues until the freeze condition is over.

Right button: Move to Freeze Protection setting.
Up/Down buttons: Select Yes or No to assign freeze protection to this circuit. If
“Yes” is selected, the circuit will switch on if the air temperature drops to 35° F.
Note: for the POOL circuit the filter pump will have freeze protection. For the
SPA circuit the filter pump will run and the pool/spa valves will switch between
pool and spa at 15 minutes intervals throughout the freeze condition. For the
MASTER CLEANER circuit freeze protection is generally not needed for pool
cleaner pumps since they get water flow from the filter pump. Just make sure
that POOL has freeze protection.

Settings Menu: Calibration


The EasyTouch system includes two temperature sensors (10 kΩ) for water and ambient air temperature. You
can also add an additional sensor for controlling solar heating systems. Generally, these sensors are accurate
and you do not have to calibrate them. However, long plumbing runs and water features can cause
temperatures at a body of water to be different from the temperature sensor reading. You can manually
recalibrate the sensors to adjust for this. You only need to calibrate one body of water, since the temperature
sensor is common to both the pool and spa. The system must be in “Service” mode to calibrate sensors.
Getting There
MENU ▼ SETTINGS ▼ CALIBRATION ▲ CALIBRATION

Calibration

Before you start, you need an accurate all weather thermometer. If you are calibrating the air sensor, wait until
the sensor is not in direct sunlight. For the air temperature sensor, make sure that the sensor is located in the

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Use the following troubleshooting information to help resolve problems that may occur when using the
EasyTouch system. If by following the recommended actions you are still unable to resolve the problems,
please contact Technical Support (see page vi).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


How do I setup a two-speed pump?

A two-speed pump operates using two relays and one or more circuits. The first relay turns the pump on or
off. Assuming this is a filter pump, this circuit is controlled by the pool and spa circuits or any other circuit that
may be tied to the filter pump (such as circuits with freeze protection, etc.). The second relay switches the
pump from low speed to high speed. The default condition is low speed. Up to seven circuits (EasyTouch 8),
three circuits (EasyTouch 4) may be assigned to trigger the pump to high speed. Note: These circuits do not
switch the pump on.

To configure a two-speed pump relay, refer to “Settings Menu: 2-Speed Pump,” on page 42. For relay location
and wiring (see page 60). The 2-Speed pump relay connector is plugged into the 2-SPD output on the
EasyTouch motherboard.

Can I switch the heater on and change the temperature from the spa?

The heater may be switched on from the spa location using the iS4 Spa-Side remote or by the QuickTouch
wireless remote controller. To learn more about these remotes and controllers, see page 6. However, the iS4
and QuickTouch wireless remote controller cannot adjust the water temperature.

How do I switch on solar heating?

The system must first be configured for solar heating. Go to the “Heat” menu (see page 25) and enable
“Solar” as the heat source (Settings Menu: Heat > Solar). Note: Do not set solar as a heat pump. Then the
heating method must be selected for each body of water.
