Lire la notice technique.
All electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician and conform to all national, state, and
local codes. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
WARNING
Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia.Hyperthermia occurs when the internaltemperature
ofthe body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of98.6 F.The symptoms of
hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internaltemperature of the
body.The effects ofhyperthermia include: 1) unawareness of impending danger; 2) failure to perceive heat; 3)
failure to recognize the need to exit spa; 4) physical inability to exit spa; 5) fetal damage in pregnant women;6)
unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
DANGER
Toreduce the risk of injury,do not remove the suction fittings of your spa or hot tub. Never operate a spa or hot
tub if the suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the flow rate

WARNING
ToReduce the Risk of Injury -
a)The water in a spa should never exceed 104 F (40 C). Water temperatures between 100 F(38 C) and
104 F (40 C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young
children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
b) Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetaldamage during the early months of
pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 100 F (38 C).
c) Before entering a spa or hottub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate
thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies.
d) The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness with
the possibility of drowning.
e) Obese persons and persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system
problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
f) Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub since some medication
may induce drowsines while other medication may affect heart rate,blood pressure, and circulation.
WARNING

3.7 PDATransceiverJ-box Installation
Installation Considerations. The transceivers will
transmit through walls and around corners. Steel
framing, aluminum siding, wrought iron, cyclone
fences, leaded glass, and other 900 MHz frequency
items may inhibit/prevent communication between
theAquaLink RS PDAHandheld Remote and the
Power Center. The transceivers do not require
line of sight to communicate. To optimize
communication, install transceivers in a location
that minimizes interference.
3.7.1 Outdoor TransceiverJ-box Installation
1. Turn off all power to the Power Center.
2. Mount the Outdoor Transceiver J-box at
least 6' above the ground and at least 8'
from an air blower (see Figure 18).
NOTE To improve performance of the transceiver,
mountthe J-box more than 6' above the ground.
3. Open the door to the Power Center and
remove the dead panel.
4. Feed the four conductor wire into the Power
Center through the low voltage raceway.
5. Cut off the excess wire. Strip the jacket
back 6" and strip the individual wires
approximately ¼". Connect the four
conductor wire to the red terminal bar on
the Power Center PCB.
6. Install the dead panel to the Power Center
and restore all power.

3.7.2 PDAHandheld Remote Installation
1. Remove the Handheld Remote from the
packaging.
2. On the back of the Handheld Remote,
loosen and remove the two (2) screws that
secure the cover for the battery chamber
(see Figure 19).
3. Install two (2)AAbatteries. Ensure that the
polarity is correct.
4. Re-install the cover for the battery chamber
and secure with the two (2) screws removed
in Step 2.
3.7.3 Changing the Frequency Channel
If yourAquaLink RS PDAsystemis turning items
on or off at undesignated times, anotherAquaLink
RS PDAsystem may be in close proximity using
the same or similar frequency channel. To prevent
unwanted operation the channel for yourAquaLink
RS PDAsystem can be changed. The Power Center
Transceiver and the PDATransceiver J-box must
be set to the same RFchannel.
1. At the Transceiver J-box, remove the cover
to expose the PCB (see Figure 20).
