Installation and commissioning instructions manual
I. General informations
1) Applicability
The HYDRO’Com®communication gateway you have just purchased is an electronic device
allowing connections to Internet for the various SYCLOPE apparatuses used for the water
management of private swimming pools. It has been carefully developed and manufactured to
ensure your greatest pleasure and peace of mind.
The internal MODEM allows connection to Internet. The HYDRO’Com®communication gateway is
then connected to the web site “myHydro.com” by internet in real-time according its internal
programmed configuration.
Two RS232 ports and one RS485 port allow to establish a local communication with the different
SYCLOPE devices in order to make the data acquisitions and to ensure the programming of the
parameters. The HYDRO’Com®communication gateway can manage up to 5 slaves on the RS485
bus. Slaves connected to the HYDRO’Com®communication gateway by their RS485 ports and the
RS485 link are also connected to the website http://hydro.mysyclope.com/, thus ensuring a total
management and the monitoring of all parameters.
The HYDRO’Com®communication gateways are equipped with four programmable entries free of
potential used to manage specific actuators in swimming pool water’s treatments through four
power relays with free of potential contacts. Four programmable real-time timers are also available
and one 4…20mA entry for temperature measurement.
The simplicity of operation of the HYDRO’Com®communication gateway, the user friendliness
and the remarkable technical aspects of these devices, will ensure you benefit from their many
options, guaranteeing you full control and supervision of the quality of the water in your swimming
pool.
The following instructions contain all the information required for the installation, the use and the
maintenance of your new HYDRO’Com®communication gateway.
➢Installation
➢Technical specifications
➢Commissioning instructions
➢Safety tips
If you would like to receive further information or if you encounter any difficulties not described in

3) Branchements électriques
The electrical installation must be performed in accordance with current regulations by an
authorized personnel!
A 30 mA differential circuit breaker must be installed!
A breaker circuit of maximum 2A must be installed near the controller and easily accessible
to stop the primary power supply. It must be identified as a circuit-breaker for the
communication gateway!
Before performing the connections, remember to turn off the primary power supply!
Use multicore cables if possible!
If it is not possible, always use a special wiring tip to be sure that no wire makes a contact
together!
Protect the wirings by using electrical clamps.
Internal protection:
The HYDRO’Com®communication gateway is protected by a TR5 time-lag fuse type of 315 mA over-
current and by a varistor against voltage surges over 275 V.

5) Connection of the primary power supply
The HYDRO’Com®communication gateway is equipped with a switching power supply. It is
therefore able to be supplied by AC voltage comprised between 90V to 240V - 50/60Hz.
►Use a 3-point 1.5 mm2minimum cable to wire the power supply
►Strip the 3 wires for 7 mm
►Pass the 3-point cable through a cable gland
►Wire the live to “L” and the neutral to “N” of the terminal block
►Wire the ground to contact “ ” with the help of an M4 eyelet terminal
►Tighten the cable gland to ensure tightness
The HYDRO’Com®communication gateway does not have its own independent power
supply switch. It is directly powered when connected to the main power supply.
6) Connections of the “free of potential” power relays
The « free of potential » internal power relays named S1, S2, S3 and S4 are used for driving actuators
for lights, robot, recirculating pump, warmer, etc…
These relay outputs are full programmable.
7) Connection of the analog 4…20mA entry
The 4…20mA analog entry is only used for temperature measurement. The temperature probe is not
polarised. It can be connected freely on the terminal block X5.
The analog entry is self-powered and must not be supplied by an external power supply!
No claim will be accepted in case of un-respect this warning!

activating or deactivating the function entry.
The entries are not powered!
9) Connection of the RS323C ports used to link the HYDRO controllers
The HYDRO’Com®communication gateway has two RS232C ports (Speed : 9600 bauds) exclusively
dedicated to the link with SYCLOPE HYDRO®controllers and others compatible controllers. The
speed communication is fixed to 9600 bauds with even parity.
