Yo, @MyAZPool, I've got some questions.
Let me preface with a summary of my system. The Intellicenter, Intellichlor, Intelliflo, and heater are all brand new, so I'm still dialing in things:
Question 1: What precisely is the role of the main relay / circuit? It's controlled by the on/off switch for the Pool Body of water. But toggling this doesn't turn the pump on. But it turns on the Intellichlor, which is behavior I shouldn't want (Intellichlor on with pump off).
Question 2: Similarly, I can turn the heater on, but that doesn't start the pump either. Is there any way to link "heater on" with "speed 2000"?
Question 3: I have to turn the Pool Body on in order to get a temperature reading. This means that I have the Intellichlor on as well, even if I don't want to make chlorine. It seems like there is absolutely no reason to have the IC40 on the main relay. I feel like I should put the Intellichlor on Aux3, and make a Circuit Group for Aux3 and "speed 1000"
Question 4: How do I schedule turning the heater on? We don't leave the heater enabled 24/7, and only turn it on when we plan on swimming later that day. I'd like to schedule the heater to turn on every Sat/Sun at 8AM. There's no Circuit or Feature for the heater that I can link into a schedule.
Question 5: How does it handle overlaps in schedules, particularly for things like pump speed? i.e. a schedule for chlorination with pump speed 1000, and a schedule for heating with pump speed 2000. Does the last schedule always take effect? Or is it smart enough to keep the fastest speed running?
Let me preface with a summary of my system. The Intellicenter, Intellichlor, Intelliflo, and heater are all brand new, so I'm still dialing in things:
- The main relay has the Intellichlor connected to it, powered from the Intelliflo VS breaker.
- The Intelliflo VS is directly connected to its breaker. Configured as "VS" within the Intellicenter. I created a handful of Feature Circuits mapped to different pump speeds.
- Aux1 relay has the Polaris booster pump.
- Aux2 relay has the pool light.
- The Raypak heater has its remote control connection hooked up to the Intellicenter heater control, and always has power.
- Air and water temperature probes installed and working.
- No valve automation.
