I currently have an Easytouch for automation, but I hate the interface. I want to be able to use my computer or phone to change the functions on my pool. I'm thinking about buying this, but I want to make sure I'm buying the right thing, and that this is a simple DIY for someone with moderate DIY skills.
One of my hang ups is that I was reviewing the manual, specifically the picture on page 3, parts 6 and 7 (the protocol adapter and the power center), and it looks like there needs to be a physical connection between the protocol adapter and the power center. My original understanding was that a transceiver is connected to the power center via the com port, and on the inside of the house, the protocol adaptor works with the router to receive and send signals to the transceiver, without a hardwired connection. Is the hardwired connection just an option or a necessity?
Does anyone happen to have a link to any good videos of an installation for screenlogic? I've only seen some programming ones on YT, and nothing useful for the install? Is it just because it is super simple to do?
