Got home from a round of golf to find this!

I just shut off the water a few minutes ago....almost exactly 12,000 gal
Even at night, i can tell the color is quite a bit darker with the full depth of the water. Today we had 30 mph winds all day so I have a lot of skimming to do...and brushing.
So far I really like the color...looking forward to seeing it in the sun...I'll post a few more pics

That water looks so clear it is hard to tell where the water ends.

Lovely! Golf followed by a swim in the pool is pretty much the perfect way to spend a Saturday. :goodjob:

Turned the lights on the other night (by pressing each aux button individually) and they were all out of sync; Spa was on American mode (guessing), and pool light 1 was on carribean (guessing), pool light 2 was on solid blue. I tried switching each light on and off to get them to change into the various modes and colors. I managed to get the spa light and pool light 2 to be on the same schedule (solid blue), but I can't seem to get pool light 1 to change off the combination of blues and green....

Read the manual and made sure everything configured correctly...Lights are on Aux 3, 4, and 5 and setup as INTELLIBRITE in the Function menu.

What I'm finding in the Lighting menu is that the Easy Touch does not do anything when I try ALL ON, ALL OFF, or SYNC. It's like there is no control. Same when trying to set a mode or a solid color...nothing happens.

The manual is sort of vague about how exactly to sync the lights....for example do you use the sync command when the lights are off or when they are all on, etc....

Any advice on what I might be doing wrong? Thanks!

Looks GREAT!!
g/l on the lighting - I am kinda jealous of all the fancy lights and controls available on new pools (mine is 1987) but then I hear about setup complexities! I'm sure you'll get it figured out.
Gone swimming yet??
