optimize your customers’ spa
experience with Gecko’s new
generation of in�ye control systems
A lot more to offer
After upgrading its smaller brother, we could not resist
doing the same with Gecko’s in�ye� With its boosted CPU,
external memory and higher capacity relays, in�ye-V3
now has the power it needs for new features��� like LED
lights for troubleshooting clues� We‘ve also added
a pathway to connected accessories with faster
communication, not only to open up the in�ye-V3 to the
network of connected objects but to be updatable
wirelessly, a definite plus for our OEM customers�
Relaxation in full colors with in.mix integration
With a light output capacity increased to 1�3A and the
integration of the in�mix 300 color system on the main
board, new in�lu�me cables and LED lights can be
connected directly to the in�ye-V3 box with full color
control directly from the keypad�
Installation made simple
With its new terminal block, onboard AMP connectors
and an evolved cable strain relief system, it has never
been easier to connect your accessories to a control box!
