Communication between Intellichlor and Intellicenter

Well I went through every screen on my system and this set up is not there so I am guessing my new IntelliCenter and set up is different. I looked through the Pentair info and no help either. Sorry

I have an Easytouch so I guess Screenlogic is different.
Why not just disconnect the Intellichem from the Intellicenter? It is a RS485 connection. .

Ya might have to. I was hoping to keep the acid pump as the PH is close enough

Is your pH an issue? Most folks find it is not a big deal. And with a vinyl liner, you have a lot of leeway on pH and TA.
Also the SWG is using that so I would have to just that the intellichlor out of the system and rewire
I been playing with the ORP level to see if I can get it to get close and keep the SWG at 8 ish

But when I turned off the intelichlor breaker it turns off the SWG
I will have to look closer at the wiring tomorrow. The electrician wired it up

Have you looked at your Intellicenter Manual? It shows on page 79 how to select/deselect the Intellichem.
Or, just disconnect the RS485 wires from the Intellichem to the Intellicenter. Be sure to power everything off when you do that.

Thanks yes i did de-select the Intellichem and that causes the SWG to BLINK all % at the bottom. That is why i was hoping to get to step 2. Let me play with it tomorrow and see if i can figure this out. Thanks again!

I suspect you need to just remove the Intellichem entirely.
I would not think pH is a big deal in your area. Your fill water is not high in TA is it?
