IntelliCenter Circuit group configuration to drain spa into pool?

[tomas21]

Curious if anyone has a tip on how to create a circuit group that would allow one to drain a raised connected spa into attached pool or more service mode by design?

I can do it manually with putting intellivalves in service mode... close pool suction/open spa suction (valve 1) and close spa return/open pool return (valve 2).

Easytouch had a DRAIN function. Does Intellicenter?

I have not found a drain function like there is on IntelliTouch. However, I simply put the suction valve in service move and moved it to spa to drain mine. Then put it back in auto when I was done.

Bummer there is no drain mode... so while the IntelliCenter is in pool mode.... put suction valve in service mode and move it to suction from spa..... will take all water from spa and fill the pool up : )

Thanks.. i'll see if I can find any documentation or details from Pentair on drain feature or was it deprecated from the IntelliCenter...

Look in SERVICE MODE and then MANUAL CIRCUITS to turn the suction valve to SPA SUCTION to drain the spa.

Hmm...That's really interesting to be able to do that. So silly question is what's the difference between intelliCenter and screen logic? I'm not trying to hi jack the thread, but just want to know if I can do that (my remote software in Screenlogic).

Curtis,

To drain the Spa you must be in the Service mode and use the "V" button on the main panel. It is not something that can be done with ScreenLogic.

Thanks,

Screenlogic is the optional additional remote access software for the EasyTouch system. The IntelliCenter has remote access built in and does not use an additional product.
