Hello all!
New user here in the middle of a new install. Lots of mud in the yard right now with this crazy St Louis weather. I am looking for some input on the best way to handle the final hookup of my new equipment. My PB has set the pump / filter package and the Easy Touch is up and running. I had a brief chat with the startup tech the other day while they were trimming out the valves prior to back fill of the pipe trench. I had asked why they were not bringing the speed control cable from the VS pump up to the EasyTouch. He said they just set the program on the pump directly and set another schedule in the Easy Touch for the SWG. I'm not sure this is the best option since a change of schedule at one device would drive me to adjust both potentially. The other reason is we have deck jets that are automated with a valve actuator. Wouldn't it make sense to have the Easy Touch in charge of the entire system??
My thoughts:
1. Pump relay should turn on SWG and 1st speed digital input on VS pump
2. Aux 1 Speed 2
3. Aux 2 Speed 3{if needed}
4. Aux 3 Lighting
Sorry about the long first post but I want to do this right the first go around.
Im not sure if I am going to need higher speeds but if needed I can use Aux 3 for Speed 3
