Hi All-
We just moved to a new state and bought a house that has a pool that was just installed within the last 2 years or so. According to the previous owner (and pool builder, who I spoke to) they have never been able to get the controller to communicate with the pump. So the pump just has to be programmed to run on a schedule based on the pump control board which is directly on the pump. I got to looking online and found a photo that shows a Pentair pump wired to a Jandy controller differently than what I see mine is….. I’m wondering if my pump wires are connected wrong? First 2 photos are my current setup, with the 2 wires in front of my finger being the 2 wires that run to the pump.

Last photo is how someone online wired theirs up….

Jandy and Pentair use different color coding on their RS-485 comm.


Pentair yellow wire goes to screw 2 Aqualink BLK and Pentair Green wire goes to Aqualink screw 3 YEL. And the Aqualink connection from the IntelliFlo pump looks like...
