    Aqualink RS upgrade time

    Steve, Another option is to have a look at the AqualinkD project. if you are comfortable with a raspberry pi it’s a great upgrade to an Aqualink system which can connect to Apple HomeKit (this is what I’ve done), Alexa, GoogleHome etc. It does not go through the cloud so you are not susceptible...

    I am using a Raspberry Pi 3B+ without any issues in terms of reliability. I have the box inside connected via telephone wire. I’ve been runn8ng for about 6 weeks without any Pi issues. - - - Updated - - - I would assume that it does report the current status because the one touch remote is...

    AquaLink Emergency Stop

    Have you looked at the AqualinkD project on github. It’s brilliant. A cheap raspberry pi computer and you have a modern smart thing / pool controller. I’ve integrated with Apple Home and it’s working well and about to integrate It to a HomeAssistant for complete automation with weather etc -...

    Aqualink Z4 vs RS vs. ? - Need Many Items Integrated

    Kris, It would make no sense to remove the RS system for a Z4 or anything else at this point. First of all you’ll need an electrician to rewire the whole box which i would guess is more than the cost of the repair. Before anything make sure the Aqualink transformer isnt the problem. If the...

That is - will it in anyway limit any functionality i...

    Aqualink RS - Control of independent solar pump

    Hi Thanks for the idea of having a separate circuit. I am simply looking for an energy efficient system. I got a friend who is a builder to call Zodiac - the response was pretty clear and reasonably makes sense in my view as to why its designed that way: Q. Can the Solar Pump be run...

    Aqualink RS - IAQUALINK 2.0 UPGRADE KIT RS SYSTEMS IQ20-RS for Pool ONLY???

    First day as a member and this is my second question. I currently have a 2010 Rev 5 Aqualink PDA-P4 and the general consensus (aka best value) advise on this forum is to use the iAqualink upgrade kit to modernise the system. It appears this upgrade is a Pool and Spa upgrade and there is no...

    Aqualink RS - Control of independent solar pump

    Hi, Been looking at this site for a long time for all the excellent advise - best resource on the net - so I thought I would join to ask two questions. This is the first. In Australia it is quite common for pools to be built with a separate solar feed and return for solar panels (lots of sun...
