Hello Pool Warriors! - Hoping to get some direction from anyone that is familiar with Intelliconnect and hooking up the wiring for my Pentair Intelliflo VS Pump ( model # 354605), Pentair IC40 chlorinator, Tropical Heat Pump and SR Smith Treo LED Light System. (Must haves are the pump, chlorinator and heat pump).

Here are pics of my setup and wiring thus far. However, doesn't seem to be connecting and working on the Pentair App. So I want to make sure my connections are solid first...Any pics/examples of other's Intelliconnect setups would be extremely helpful!

Thanks!
Chad

Welcome to TFP.

I don't see the RS-485 connection from the pump to the IntelliConnect.

To control a heater, you need the water temperature sensor.

The heat pump control connects to the heater 2 wire control relay.

What is connected to Relay 1?

Nothing is connected to Relay 2 and can be used for your chlorinator or lights.

Welcome to TFP!

Like Allen mentioned, you need RS-485 connections from the pump AND from your IC40 power center to the Intelliconnect. Both the pump and the power center should be powered directly from the breaker, not through the Intelliconnect. You only use RS-485 to control them.

Are your lights connected to Relay 1? If not they can be powered through either relay. Be careful with voltage - the Intelliconnect can handle either 120v or 240v. If it's powered with 240 the way it's currently wired, your relays are also 240, but your light transformer is probably only 120.

A water temp sensor is also required to make the Intelliconnect work properly.
