IntelliTouch ScreenLogic User’s Guide

Introduction

Welcome! Your Pentair IntelliTouch ScreenLogic Pool and Spa control system will change the way you view pool
and spa controls. This innovation in pool and spa automation offers complete freedom for you while having full
automation control over your pool, spa, lights, heater, cleaners and much more. You can now schedule multiple start
and stop times to control your lights, heater, spa jets, and filter pumps. The ScreenLogic historical data feature
monitors energy use for your pool, spa and lighting equipment and also records pool, spa, and air temperatures.
This historical data provides a convenient way to help you conserve energy. Using the wireless Digital Tablet or
Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) you can now control your pool and spa from anywhere inside or outside your
home. An in-wall Touch Screen and a program for your PC are also available. IntelliTouch ScreenLogic is a
scalable system that can be upgraded to a completely integrated home automation solution including audio, security,
climate, irrigation and more. For more information about using the ScreenLogic system with the home automation
system by HomeLogic, refer to “HomeLogic Management and Control Solution,” page 100.

This manual describes how to install, configure, and operate the IntelliTouch ScreenLogic system. Before learning
how the IntelliTouch ScreenLogic system works, familiarize yourself with the various wireless and wired controllers
included with each IntelliTouch Personality kit.

IntelliTouch System Overview

IntelliTouch systems offer the flexibility to handle from five to 40 circuits that can be used to control any combination
of pumps, lights, water features, etc. As an added benefit, user-configurable circuits can also be used to control
these combinations of features and more. The Feature Macro circuits feature allows any number of circuits to be
combined on a single button. This gives you the ability to set up “themes” with custom names all with a press of a
button. (Not available with IntelliTouch model i5 or i5S).

IntelliTouch users can also dim any high voltage incandescent light such as Pentair Amerlites and SpaBrites up to
eight levels using the IntelliTouch Dimmer Module (P/N 520406). The dimmer module supports multiple lights from
100 watts up to 1,000 watts and installs in a standard relay location. Any number of dimmers (up to 10 maximum)
may be used with a maximum combined load of 4,000 Watts in a single IntelliTouch load center.

In the home

The IntelliTouch system can utilize multiple wired and wireless controllers including the Digital Tablet, Personal
Digital Assistant (PDA), the wired in-wall Touch Screen, Indoor Control Panel, and the wireless MobileTouch
control panel, and even your existing home PC. A maximum of four ScreenLogic interfaces can be used. For
example, four Tablets, or four PDA’s, or four in-wall Touch Screen’s, or four PC’s in any combination.

Around the pool

Located near your spa, the iS10 or iS4 spa-side remote provide control buttons for various pool and spa functions.
The iS10 spa-side remote also provides a temperature display.

At the equipment pad

Near the pump, filter, and other equipment will be located a metal box known as the “load center” or “power
center.” This is where high voltage from the junction box at the home is distributed to the various pool equipment.
The pool service person can periodically check pool operations from this unit. The load center is also where the
various IntelliTouch controllers interface with the other equipment.

Mounted on of top the valves you may also find motorized valve actuators used to change the flow of water through
the plumbing. There may also be temperature sensors and cabling to the heater. There should be no need for anyone
other than your service person to periodically check this equipment.
