I have the Pentair 4 cartridge filter system with a Pentair VS pump. 25,000 gallon in ground pool, completely redone one year ago. (signature is wrong, we moved). My filter gets clogged up every 3-4 weeks. We have a small spillway that stops running water when the filters clog. I think it's...

I have a meter. With the 2 thermistor wires twisted together, where am I putting the second probe?

It's not protected, I can do that. But this one lasted one week. This makes me think something else is causing the big swings in resistance. Could it be the wire? I have a 2 story house so there is a long wire going to the roof which the thermistor is connected to.

Solar hasn't been working consistently. Solar temp in the ET was erratic going from a very low temp like 9* to a very hot temp like 255*. Switched the wires for the air and solar on the ET and the odd temperature followed to the solar thermistor, leading me to believe the issue is the...

I have a 2 story house so there is a long wire going from the ET to the roof.

Looks like I had a bad sensor then bought another bad one. Changed it out again and it appears to be right now. If it changes again I'm gonna replace the wire I guess.

Ok. Checked resistance. The new sensor is at 7, water sensor is at 9, air sensor is at 8.5.

Swapped the solar and air sensor wires. Solar was 256* F before swapping, then after swapping Air is 256* F. So its the board?

Lol, yes, I did double check that. All 3 temperatures shown are in Fahrenheit. I read quite a few posts where people found odd temperatures like I am. I erased the EEPROM today just to see if that wouod fix it. When I went to Calibration, the air and water temperatures were accurate, the solar...

I have an EasyTouch system. My solar wasn't turning on despite it being hot. I checked the solar temperature under Calibration and it was 25* F. It would only go up to 34*. I did some research and replaced the solar temperature sensor (Pentair 520272) today. After replacing, the temp was 4* off...

DC, not AC right? Which are the output leads going to the pcb?

It's an external power supply, not part of the EasyTouch. There are no lights on at all. Transformer is wired for 220, configured as you said, 220v between the two inputs. There is power to the transformer. Looks like I need a new board.

At the circuit board right? 0.04 VDC

Yeah, it steps down to low voltage. Hope I don't have to buy a new one!

I found my IC40 with no power today. It is connected to an EasyTouch and its own transformer, wired to come on with the pump. Diagnostics say No Comm. It is enabled in the EasyTouch with 35%. I checked the fuse on the transformer and its fine. There is 120v at each wire inside the transformer...

I have a actuator valve going into the pump from the main drain/vacuum on one side and the skimmer on the other side of a T. The valve stops so the main drain/vacuum is always fully open and the skimmer can be closed off or slowed. I've had the valve set to a point where the vacuum runs at the...

I am trying to program my EasyTouch to do a quick clean. I want it to run the pump when I turn a circuit/feature on and run for 20 minutes. I have tried a lot of combinations but the pump isn't lowering back to its low speed after the egg timer set time. This is what I have currently...

That make sense. The wires from the pump are pretty thick and barely allow the other two small wires in. I'll pigtail it.

I already have 3 things connected to my EasyTouch Comport which I understand is the maximum number. I can't tell if the comport expansion just allows easier wiring or if you can connect more than 3.

Thanks!

I am replacing my old 120v light with a Intellibrite 5g 12v. I have a PX300 wired up and there are 2 black wires on the 12v side. The 12v Intellibrite has aa black wire and a white wire. Does it matter which wire goes where? I can't imagine how it would but I want to be sure I don't screw up...

I am replacing a 120V halogen light with a 12v Intellibrite light. The manual says you can connect 3 pool lights and a spa light to one 300W transformer. I only have one light in my pool so can I use a 50W Transformer?

I read and read and finally figured it out. I used Valve B and scheduled the circuit under Aux 1. It's working the way I want it to now but I'm still trying to figure out how to program this thing.

Thanks! Seems silly to have to go through all that to get to it but I guess I really only check it to make sure the solar is working properly.

I have searched and searched and cannot figure this out. And the EasyTouch manual doesn't help at all. I want to be able to program a couple actuators to turn at specific times. For example, I have one actuator that turns to divert water to a sheer descent. I would like this actuator to turn...

I got my EasyTouch installed and working today. I can see the water and air temps but not the solar temp. How can I see what it is reading as the solar temp?

All wired up and working so far. It isn't warm enough for the solar to turn on so I don't know if I have that set up right but I think it is.

I bought the SolarTouch because I wanted to save some money. Bad decision. It has given me nothing but problems. Pentair came out 3 times to fix it and now I'm out of warranty and it isn't working again. That's why I'm upgrading to the EasyTouch. I'll be installing it today.

I am capable of doing this, I just couldn't decipher the Pentair manual. In my search for an answer before I posted here I found a lot of people with the same problem ☺ L1 and L2 was exactly what I was looking for, thanks! Everything makes sense now. I appreciate your help!

Ok, I'll take the timer out and run conduit to the EasyTouch. There are 2 110v wires going into the timer. The wonderful Pentair manual doesn't explain very well where those two wires will connect. The heater and pump will then be wired directly to the breaker, the wires currently coming into...
