This manual covers the PT-6002 Power Tower installation on only. However, note
that exist ng conduits leading from each light locate on in the pool should
be:
- made of non-metallic polymeric material (PVC), and
- all conduit joints must be waters gut.
Connect 120VAC power INPUT wiring to the unit’s 3-wire cage clamp.
- Place the unit on the Opti opal PT-BASE or the exist ng base from the previous illuminator. Pull the supply cable unit l it extends beyond the end of the conduit in the base from 6 to 8ʺ. At ache the PT-6002 to the base with 2 of the supplied screws.
- Strip the jacket back 4ʺ back from the end of the internal wires.
- Strip the insulate on on each wire (black, white, and green) to 3/8ʺ +/- 1/16ʺ.
- Feed the cable and stripped wires through the white nylon fi anger grommet and dress it approximately as shown.
Connectix owns (GFCI protected power must be provided to the unit):
- The black (hot) wire connects to the terminal block orange segment,
- the white wire (common) to the grey segment, and
- the green wire (ground) to the yellow-green segment.
- Connect each wire to its correct segment (Figure B):
- Fully insert the wire installation on tool (supplied) into the segment’s smaller square hole.
- Firmly lever the tool to the left to open the wire entry and hold it in place
- Fully insert the correct (matching) wire into the segment’s larger square hole.
- Release the installation on tool and remove it.
- Pull the inserted wire fi rely to confit ram that it is it hotly gripped.
- Aft err all three wires are inserted, dress them so they do not interfere with each other, as shown in Figure C.
- Dress the cable to remove any excessive loops and/or kinks. At emit on
- Do Not Lose the provided Installation on Tool, it is required for removal of the input wires should service or replacement be required.

Output Terminals Circuit 1 = left bank, Circuit 2 = right bank Output
terminals are connected together in parallel to increase available outputs (
Figure D ). Each left-right pair is designated for one 12VAC device
(common and hot) connection. Seven positions are provided but you may only
connect as many 12VAC devices as the cumulative wattage consumption of 60W or
less will allow.
Do not exceed 60W load.
Connect low voltage (12VAC) lights to the unit’s lever terminals. Strip each
cable jacket back from the end to release about 3ʺ of each internal wire,
being careful not to damage their insulation.
-
Strip each wire’s insulation 3/8ʺ +/- 1/16ʺ.
-
Twist each wire to eliminate any stray strands.
-
Select a pair of connection points located horizontally across from each other as shown in Figure E. Using a fingernail or small tool,
rotate each ‘lever’ out and down until it remains open. -
Fully insert the black insulated lead through the outermost hole and the red insulated lead through the innermost hole as shown
-
While holding both leads fully inserted, flip both ‘levers’ all the way up.
-
Pull on each lead firmly to confirm it is fully gripped (Figure F).
-
Repeat steps 1-7 for Circuit 2 connections on right bank of connection points.
12V or 13V AC Low voltage accommodations
If Input voltage to unit is less than 120V and lighting load is high or
secondary wiring runs are long, it may be desirable to increase transformer
output voltage to compensate. This may be done by opening the lever terminal
in the upper right of the output terminal block, removing the blue transformer
wire, and substituting the available yellow transformer wire in its place. Cap
the, now unused, blue wire with the wire nut ( see Figure G ).
Note: output voltages for either circuit 1 or circuit 2 may be set
independently by this method based on application needs.
FIGURE G: Red-Blue or Red-Yellow wires used for 12V or 13V output.

ELECTRICAL PROTECTION MEASURES
Electrical Fusing
- Self-Resetting Thermal Fuse: This fuse keeps the unit from overheating in instances where a load in excess of the transformer’s capacity is present for an extended period of time. Once normal operating temperatures return, the unit will reset and operation will continue
- Replaceable Current Fuse*: To protect against hazardous electrical conditions, the PT-6002 utilizes a current fuse that will cut off output electricity in the event of a short circuit condition. When the fault condition is rectified and the fuse is replaced, normal operation will resume.
ONLY USE SR SMITH REPLACEMENT FUSE: Part Number 36-15017-00
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
- SWITCH DOES NOT TURN OFF INPUT POWER.
Failure to disconnect input power before servicing can lead to serious injury, or death. Disconnect input power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before reconnecting power and operating.70-15482-00 REV. C
WIRELESS R E MOTE OPERATION
The RF remote system requires no complex programming and is shipped ready to
use. In the event that another PT-6002 or similar device is installed nearby
and is operating on the same pairing code, that code (A-P) may be easily
changed by choosing another via the 4 position DIP switch package found inside
the battery compartment of the remote. The receiver board inside the control
panel will also need to be changed to match.
Note: The default code as shipped is Code A on both the remote and the
receiver.
-
Sleep Mode
To conserve battery power, the remote will enter standby mode when no function has been selected for 30 seconds or more. To wake
the remote, simply press the ‘1, 2, S, or M’ button momentarily. The indicator will light up solid for 5 seconds indicating that it is ready to transmit. A rapidly flashing indicator indicates that a command signal was sent to the control panel. -

TROUBLESHOOTING
The remote function of this device operates through radio frequency (RF)
signals. As with any RF device, this is subject to interference through
surroundings and installation location. In the event of an interference issue
or if longer range is required, the internally mounted antennae may be removed
and an accessory antenna kit may be used to extend the RF antenna towards the
use area by either a 3 meter or 15 meter extended cord and magnetic mounting
base. Like any radio device, experimentation may be required
to locate the best reception spot. To install the plex-ANTKT-S or plex-
ANTKT-L, please disregard the instructions included with the kits and follow
these steps as outlined below:
- Shut off power at the appropriate circuit breaker; remove all chances of accidental electrical shock.
- Remove lift-off cover to allow access inside the PT-6002.
- Find the 5cm antenna directly connected to the SMA jack on the receiver board, inside the black receiver enclosure. It will be next to the 4 place, DIP switch selector. Carefully unscrew the antenna from the SMA jack.
- Find a suitable mounting location within the cord range of accessory antenna kit. Use the screws included with the kit to mount the metal bracket on a wall or appropriate surface. Place magnetic base of the antenna on the metal bracket. NOTE – when mounted, the antenna should be in the vertical orientation. Often times, simply moving the antennae up on a taller location will greatly improve reception.
- Bring the screw-on SMA connector back through the Left or Right round ventilation openings in the chassis and carefully thread the connector on the SMA jack on the receiver board. Make sure there is enough slack that the cover may be reinstalled and the cable is able to pass through the bottom of the ventilation opening on the lift off cover.
- Once everything is reconnected and the cover is reinstalled, restore power from the circuit breaker and test the remote function.
