Setting Manual Controls and Scheduling
Each piece of equipment has a manager screen (accessed by selecting the folder
next to the item on the Main screen) with specific settings for the device. All manager
screens include:
Status
Indicates on/off status for most devices. For a pool/spa
circulation pump it also indicates the current circulation
mode (pool, spa, or spillover).
Manual Control
Specifies how long a device will be active when
turned on manually.
Some equipment is dependent on other equipment
to operate properly. The rules governing these
dependencies are referred to as Device Manager
Rules. Manually activated devices are subject to
these rules, meaning that even though a device
turned is “on,” it may not activate unless all the rules
are met. See Device Associations, Safety Delays
and Lockouts for further information.
Each device has a Duration default. When the
specified duration is complete, the device control
returns to the established schedules.
Remaining refers to how much longer the device will
be active under manual control.
Schedules
Scheduling is available for each device. Up to four schedules can be set based on date
and time. When scheduling, equipment associations and manager rules should again be
taken into consideration. For detailed information on equipment, review the original
manufacturer’s documentation or talk with a pool professional.
Day: Specifies day(s) of operation
(Sun, Mon, Tue, etc. or All)
(M-F = Monday thru Friday)
(S-S = Saturday and Sunday)
(MWF = Mon., Wed. and Friday)
Start: Specifies start time
Stop: Specifies stop time
Mode: For circulation pump only: specifies circulation mode (pool, spa, spillover)
Schedule priority is based on the order of the schedules from the top (highest priority)
to the bottom of the menu.
When a device is scheduled and active, a clock symbol will display next to it.
Freeze Protect
Enables or disables freeze protection for the specific device. Freeze Protect must be
specified for each device individually. Freeze Protection on the Setup screen must
also be checked.

Using Manager Screens
Access any manager screen from the Main screen by selecting the folder next to the item.
Heater Manager
An adjustable high and low operating Range is
available for heaters. Defaults are 0° and 104° F.
Range can be used to set multiple heaters to
heat to different temperatures. For example:
two heaters can be set to heat together up to a
certain temperature, such as 95° F, with only
the second continuing to heat to the maximum.
Heater Cool Down is a safety feature that
provides a two-minute delay in turning off the
circulation pump after the heater has completed
its firing cycle. This allows the heater to cool down.
If Freeze Protect is disabled (unchecked), the
heater will not fire during “Freeze Alert.” If enabled,
the heater will fire if the water temperature drops
to 34° F or the air temperature drops to 36° F.
Spa Dep Valve Manager
If a Spa Dependent Valve is installed on
the pool, use Spa Mode Position to set the
valve position, open or closed, when
the system is in circulation mode “Spa.”
1. Use the arrow keys to move the
cursor over the Spa Mode Position
field. (Ex: )
2. Press <Enter> to select On or Off.
Solar Valve Manager
Solar Priority, available on the Solar Valve
Manager and Solar Pump Manager screens,
sets solar heating to have priority over all
other heaters.
When checked (default), the solar heater
has priority over other heaters until the water
temperature gets within 5 degrees of the Solar
Panel Temp. Then, solar heating will shut off and
the other heater(s), if activated, will continue to
heat until the setpoint is reached.
Solar Panel Temp displays the current reading
from the temperature sensor on the solar panel.

Setting Scenes and Shortcuts
Scenes and Shortcuts establish one touch control of multiple devices. They can control
groups of equipment routinely used together. For example: a Shortcut can turn on the
pool light, porch light and landscape lighting. Or they can be used to create a particular
mood for entertaining or relaxing.
Scenes
A Scene is a “snapshot” of the entire system operation that can be recalled to play
at any time.
Scenes can be scheduled to run at specific times or activated manually.
Up to five Scenes can be set up, but only one Scene can be played at a time. If a Scene
is “in play” and another is recalled (either manually or by a schedule), the latter Scene
takes priority.
To set a Scene:
1. Turn on any equipment that you want to
operate during the Scene. Setpoints can
be part of the Scene.
On the Main screen, move the cursor to
the Status field of the each device and
press <Enter> to select the setting.
In this example: circulation mode is
Spa, Spa setpoint is 103°, Pool Light
is On, Spa Light is dimmed to 60%,
and Music is On.
2. Use the left arrow key to move to
the Setup screen.
3. Move cursor to the Scenes & Shortcuts
folder. Press <Enter> to open the
Scenes & Shortcuts screen.
4. Move the cursor to the first available text
field under My Scenes.
5. Press <Enter> to select the field and use
the arrow keys to name the Scene.
(Ex: )
6. Move the cursor to the folder next to the
newly named Scene and press <Enter> to
open the My Scene Manager screen.

Freeze Protection
Freeze protection is activated when the air
temperature drops to 36° F or the water
temperature drops to 34° F. Manual activation
or scheduled operation of Spa Mode will
override freeze protection.
During freeze protection, “Freeze Alert” will flash
on the bottom of the display screen.
The Freeze Protection check box on the Setup
screen should always be checked (enabled) to
protect equipment from freeze damage. The
circulation pump is covered by freeze protection
as long as this check box is checked.
For all other equipment, Freeze Protect must
also be specified on the individual device
manager screen. Some devices default to
freeze protect.
By default, heater freeze protect is unchecked;
the heater will not fire during a freeze alert. If
freeze protection is checked, the heater will fire
when the water temperature drops to 33° F.
During Freeze Alert:
• In the pool/spa combo and pool/spa
separate configurations, the system will
alternate between activating the spa and
the pool equipment every 15 minutes.
• In spa only and pool only configurations,
the equipment will alternate for 15 minutes
on and 15 minutes off.
•Blowers will run for five minutes every
half hour.
• No lighting (pool, spa, landscape, etc.)
will activate.

Alerts and Alarms
The following alert conditions will sound the audible alarm in addition to flashing the alert
message at the bottom of the display screen.
The following Alerts are flashing messages only.
Device Associations, Safety Delays and Lockouts
Some equipment is dependent on other equipment for proper operation. The rules that
govern these dependencies or associations are referred to as Device Manager Rules.
Manually activated devices are subject to these rules, meaning that even though a device
turned is “on,” it may not activate unless all the rules are met. The device manager rules
and other safety functions are listed below.
Heater
When activated (turned on manually or by a schedule), the heater will only fire
(indicated by flame on display) if the circulation pump is on and the temperature
setpoint is above the current temperature reading.
There is a 45-second operational delay at initial startup of the heater. Once the heater
is active and the desired temperature is reached, the heater will turn off and remain
off until the temperature falls two degrees below the setpoint. This prevents the heater
from short cycling (i.e., turning on and off in rapid succession).

After the heater shuts down, it enters a 2-minute cool down period. Heater Cooling
Down will be displayed on the screen. If the filter pump is shut down during the cool
down, the pump will remain on until the delay is finished and an hourglass will be
displayed next to the pump on the screen.
Cleaner Booster Pump
The pool cleaner will only activate when the system is in the pool mode (i.e., water
circulating to the pool) as it requires water circulation to function correctly. Cleaner
Requires Pool Mode is displayed if cleaner schedule requires circulation mode
adjustment.
There is a 1-minute prime delay to ensure the water is flowing to the booster pump.
The display will read Prime Delay during this delay.
If the filter pump is turned off while the cleaner booster pump is running, the
controller will automatically shut down the booster pump. The system recognizes that
the booster pump cannot run without the circulation pump.
If the booster pump cleaner is active and spa or spa spillover mode is entered the
booster pump will shut down and be locked-out. When the spa or spa spillover mode
is cancelled, the booster pump schedule will resume.
Spa Drain
The spa drain can only be activated on the Service screen.
Valves
Valves Turning is displayed whenever a valve (pool to spa, spa to spillover, solar,
etc.) is signaled to rotate. There is a 15 second delay during which the filter pump is
shut off. The pump is reactivated when the valves have stopped turning.
Solar Heating Systems
When solar heating is initiated and there is a booster pump cleaner on the system,
the booster pump will shut down and be locked-out for a 2-minute Solar Purge Delay
to allow water to be purged from the solar collectors. When the delay is complete, the
booster pump is reactivated.
When equipment is manually activated:
Existing schedules will be overridden. Remember to shut down the equipment, otherwise,
the equipment will continue to run until the next scheduled shut down or time-out
specified in the device setup.
If spa mode is not turned off, only the water in the spa will be filtered and the pool cleaner
will be disabled.
Turning off the filter pump does not reset valves to pool mode. The valves will
automatically return to pool mode after 6 hours.
Communication Failures
Communication failure messages (CPC-ACT Comm Failure, X10 Comm Failure, etc.)
are displayed when there is a communications failure between the command center and
the system components. Check connections or reposition the remote or antenna
and try again.

With the basic system in place, optional components such as remote controls, sanitizing
controllers, lighting controls, and even home appliance controls can be added at any time
to customize the pool or expand the system capabilities.
Remote Controls
Eos can be controlled remotely by the Eos Wireless Remote or the In-House Panel
remote. Limited system control is also available with the Shortcut remote which can be
mounted spa-side or as an in-house panel.
Each remote has its own Setup screen where display adjustments can be made. To
access this screen for either the Wireless or In-house Panel remote, press the left and
right arrow keys of the remote keypad simultaneously.
Wireless Remote
Battery charge level and signal
reception are indicated at the top of
the display screen. The battery must be
charged for at least five hours before the
initial use. To ensure a full charge, always
store the remote on the charger when not
in use. An animated scrolling battery
symbol on the display indicates the
battery is charging.
Software Version provides access to
current system software information.
Remote device settings, including the
unique remote channel setting, are listed
on the Network Settings screen
Shutdown turns off the remote. Useful to
conserve battery life. Press any key to
reactivate.
When checked, Audible Alarm enables the
alarm in this remote device to signal when
an alert condition exists.
If Spa Temp Notify is checked, “Spa Has
Reached Set T
emp” will be displayed when
the water temperature in the spa reaches
its designated setpoint.
Access Code is a security feature
available on the remote control devices.
When activated, system change
capabilities are limited to authorized users.
