EasyTouch® Wireless Control Panel Overview
Introduction
The EasyTouch wireless control panel gives you the freedom to control your pool and spa daily operations
from around your pool and spa area. The wireless device can operate up to 300 feet from the EasyTouch
transceiver module which is typically located near the EasyTouch load center. There is enough battery power
to operate the whole summer season without changing batteries, Using the power saving menu options you can
also reduce power consumption and extend battery life. The EasyTouch wireless control panel is water
resistent, however, it’s not intended to be submersible.
Operating EasyTouch
The EasyTouch system is designed to automatically control your pool and spa equipment, lights and other
optional equipment. However, you can also manually control all EasyTouch system operations from the outdoor
control panel. Using the “Mode” button, the system can be switched from “Auto” mode (normal operating
mode) to “Service” mode for manual operation and service purposes. Using the outdoor control panel buttons
you can manually override any automatic settings. If required, the EasyTouch wireless control panel can be
password protected. To access a password protected control panel, simply enter the correct four digit assigned
password (see page 51).
EasyTouch Systems
There are two EasyTouch system configurations available; EasyTouch 8 (auxiliary circuits) and EasyTouch 4
(auxiliary circuits). The EasyTouch system is factory configured to operate with a “shared” equipment system
or with a “single body” system. For EasyTouch 4 and EasyTouch 8 menus, see page 13.
