Thanks so much for your help...I got the connectors etc... and finishing up now...one last q... the instructions say I should have all DIP switches off... that sound right?

Thank you Jim. The readout says Main Software revision- 4.40 and Display revision is 3.12. I am using the Hayward shielded cable provided with the pump which is 2 wires ( black/ yellow) and 1 bare wire to run to pump. Do I need to put that shielded cable in flex conduit or can I use the cable...

Hi Jim... attached are two photos. I understand the wiring. I am running the two data wires from the Aqua Plus controller and connecting to the RS485 data plug at the pump. My question is what do I do with the four wires that are already in the RS485 data plug at the pump..? Do I disconnect...

Thank you!

Does anyone have winter pool blowout instructions for the CYCLONE blowing through the pump filter. I made an adapter pump lid( extra one on EBAY) from the info on this great informative website. Closing pool for first time... just received the Cyclone. Thanks.

I have a Hayward TriStar VS variable speed pump. I have a pool subpanel. Do you wire the Surge protector in to the same breaker that the Hayward TriStar VS variable speed pump is on or do you add a breaker. In my case on the breaker for the Hayward TriStar VS variable speed pump, I have a two...
