Thanks, mknauss and others. Yes, I have, at least temporarily, put the PA in the box. My electrical outlet is on side of the box on the outside. I have ordered a small extender and hope to be able to put it in a weather enclosure around the plug and run the ethernet from there up through the...

OK. I moved a wifi extender out to the control panel, along with the PA. It worked in "remote", which is fine by me. So, now the arrangement is - router inside, wifi extender outside wired by ethernet to PA inside box, wired to com port with 4-conductor wire. All appears good. Now I need to...

There's only the antenna connected to the Easy Touch board. The PA is connected to the router in the house, and then connected to the indoor antenna. I'll have to think about how to direct wire this. It is a long way from the router to the Easy Touch. I may try to use my wifi extender out...

The voltage at the two outside pins is somewhere greater than 10 DCV - probably around 12. The protocol adapter has a solid red light in the house and the inside antenna has a flashing power light. The EasyTouch seems to work fine. It has held the last schedule and I can operate everything...

I know this thread is a year old but I have the same problem but I don't have an Intelliflo pump. How do I know whether the com port is good? I'll replace the antenna set if necessary but I'd hate to do that and then have to replace the main board too. Sorry - this was originally in another...

OK - thanks! I do appreciate your advice.

Understood. That will take a little time. In the meantime, do you think that the pressure drop across the shutoff valve could also have a small effect. If I could eliminate at least that restriction, would it make any difference? I know, I'm reaching. The grandkids are boarding the plane!

Thanks ajw. An easy short term answer would be to change the current 3/4" valve to a full port valve. Would that make any significant difference?

Hi all, Thanks for all of the advice. Got the manometer. I've got 8" WC on the inlet (statically) but it drops to zero when the gas valve opens. I now get the flame to light momentarily but it doesn't stay lit. Based on what y'all have said, it seems that I am starved for gas. Do I read...

Ordered. Thanks for the reference!

Hi Jeff. I meant the regulator on the pool heater, not the main regulator. Do you see issues with that? I know it is not my first choice but may be a stop-gap.

No manometers at HD. So, if it is being starved for gas, it seems that my only option short term is to crank the gas valve regulator open.

You're right. It is a 250 CFM meter. We did have a 400 BTU unit here before that seemed to run ok. This one has been there for about 3 years and seemed to work until this year. In the spring, we seemed to have the problem of it starting up, lighting, and then going out. Through many...
