Installation Instructions
Single PLP-REM unit
.Connect a 12VAC magnetic transformer to the “12VAC FROM TRANSFORMER”
terminal of the PLP-REM.
Connect the pool lights to the “12VAC TO LAMPS” terminal in the PLP-REM.
. Install the filter (included in box) to the primary circuit (230VAC side)
of the transformer
.The “12VAC TO LAMPS” relay contact has a max rating of 58A. Make sure the
total power load does not exceed this (58A x 12VAC = 696VA)

Multiple PLP-REM installation
For extended installations (total lamp power > 700VA), multiple PLP-REM’s
can be linked together. This way, a perfect synchronisation of all pool lights
is still guaranteed.
The PLP-REM’s need to communicate with each other, to ensure all the
lamps are in perfect sync.
Connect the PLP-REM’s with each other using the CAN bus:
Connect the CAN terminals of the first PLP-REM with the CAN terminal of
the second PLP-REM*.
If more than 2 PLP-REM’s are necessary, simply daisy chain each CAN termi-
nal with the one from the next PLP-REM (see below). Respect the
polarity of the terminals! (CAN L & H)
Next, set the DIP switches on the PLP-REM’s to the correct MASTER/SLAVE
setting. The first PLP-REM will be the MASTER. All the others will be SLAVE’s.
Refer to page 9 for Master/Slave DIP switch info.
CAN BUS
set as MASTER set as SLAVE set as SLAVE
* We recommend using a shielded twisted pair cable (min. 0,5mm² - up to 200m) to connect
multiple PLP-REM’s using the CAN bus.
In a Master/Slave setup, only the PLP-REM that is set as MASTER will
react to transmitter commands. Any additional transmitters will need to
be paired with this MASTER PLP-REM
!

Operation Modes
The PLP-REM controller has 2 main operation modes:
“ON/OFF control mode” & “PLC control mode”. Each mode has it’s own
functionalities:
1) Only for RGB lamps
2) In ON/OFF control mode, only a few RS-485 commands are available (see p 15)
3) Depending on which control mode is selected, the keypad of the transmitter needs
to be changed

Set lamps to Program 1 (blue) & full brightness
(1) Lamp ON or OFF status is memorized after power down
(2) The green LED in the transmitter will light up as soon as you start pressing a button, and will stop
after 2 seconds, so you know exactly when to release the button.
(3) The lamps will be turned o for 30 seconds and then switched ON/OFF 3 times. This will set all
lamps to program 1: blue
