INSTALLATION
Remote Display Installation Instructions:
Mounting
Push a screwdriver blade through the slot and lift up the cover If bezel will be used, snap the baseplate into the bezel before mounting Screw the baseplate in the desired position using screws supplied by the installer. The AQL2-Wx- PS-x Remote Display/Keypad must be mounted indoors or in a weather protected area (rain should never hit the display/keypad). Up to 3 remote display/keypads can be installed. The display/keypad is designed to mount onto a standard electrical utility box (same size as used for a triple light switch) or can be mounted directly onto any wall surface. When selecting a location, note that the wire to the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic main unit must be no more than 500 feet long. Follow the steps below:
- Remove display/keypad baseplate from the cover by inserting a screwdriver in the slot shown below. Lift up on the cover while pushing gently with the screw-driver.
- If bezel will be used, snap baseplate into bezel before mounting.
- Screw the baseplate in the desired position (screws supplied by installer).
Note : The provided warranties have certain exclusions. It is important to follow the installation, operation, and maintenance recommendations mentioned in the owner’s manual. Any tampering, improper installation, or use of unauthorized parts may void the warranty. For technical support and service, contact Hayward/Goldline at the current rates.
Wiring
The Pro Logic or Aqua Logic main unit can connect to a maximum of 3 remote
display/keypads. Use four conductor cable (typically phone cable) to connect
the remote display keypad with the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic Control Center as
shown below. The maximum wiring distance is 500ft. (160m). Note that the
terminals on both the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic main unit and the remote
display/keypad are numbered: Connect 1 to 1, 2 to 2, etc.
If multiple remote display/keypads are installed: Never connect more than 2
wires to any terminal block. Two remotes can be wired back to the Pro
Logic/Aqua Logic main unit or the second display/keypad (and third, if
applicable) can be “daisy chained” with one display/keypad wired to the next.
The maximum wire run from the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic main unit to the furthest
remote display/keypad is 500 ft. (160m).
When power is turned on, all the LED indicators will flash briefly, the display back-light will illuminate, and the following display will appear for a short period of time:
The “r4.00” is the software revision level. The actual revision level for your
display/keypad may be different.
Refer to the Pro Logic or Aqua Logic Operation Manual for complete operating
in-structions.
TROUBLESHOOTING
-
Display/keypad not functioning (no display, no LEDs illuminated)
If the display/keypad located on the main unit is working correctly, the most likely cause is that wires 1 and 4 are either open circuited or reversed. Check wiring. If none of the displays are working, check that 120V power is being applied to the main control and that the 3A fuse (violet) is not blown. -
Display backlight turns off after a period of time
The display backlight should always illuminate when you press any key on the unit. If it turns off after a period of time, you can stop this by pressing the menu key (possibly multiple times) until “Settings Menu” appears. Next press the “<” or “>” key (possibly multiple times) until “Display Light” appears. At this point, pressing either “+” or “-“ will allow you to select either “Always On” or “On for 60 sec.”. After you have selected the desired operation, press the “Menu” button to lock in your setting. Note that this selection applies to this display/keypad only. Repeat the process of each display/keypad in the system. -
Display backlight always on
The display backlight should always illuminate when you press any key on the unit. If it remains on after 60 seconds have elapsed since the last button push, you can stop this by pressing the menu key (possibly multiple times) until “Settings Menu” appears. Next press the “<” or “>” key (possibly multiple times) until “Display Light” appears. At this point, pressing either “+” or “-“ will allow you select either “Always On” or “On for 60 sec.”. After you have selected the desired operation, press the “Menu” button to lock in your setting. Note that this selection applies to this display/keypad only. Repeat the process for each display/keypad in the system.
The display/keypad received data from an Aqua Logic system running software earlier than r2.00. This keypad is not compatible with these sys-tems. Another cause for this problem may be that the local display/keypad in the main Pro Logic/Aqua Logic control unit is not connected or not functioning. If this is the case, connect and/or replace the local display/keypad and then cycle power to the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic off and then back on to reset the system. Call the Hayward Tech support department.
The display/keypad is not receiving any communication from the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic main control unit. The most likely cause of this problem is a broken wire or “open circuit” in wires “2” and/or “3” in the cable between the display/keypad and the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic main control unit. If you are unable to find the problem, contact the Hayward Tech support depart-ment Monday through Friday, from 8AM to 8PM eastern time.
The display/keypad is receiving data from the main Pro Logic/Aqua Logic control unit however that data contains errors and is unusable. The most likely cause of this problem is that wires “2” and “3” in the cable between the control unit and the display/keypad are crossed. If you are unable to find the problem, contact the Hayward Tech support department Monday through Friday, from 8AM to 8PM eastern time.
An internal problem has occurred in the display/keypad. Remove the dis- play/keypad from the wall mount base (see diagram on page 1) and write down the model number and serial number of the display/keypad. Next, call the Hayward Tech support department (Monday through Friday, from 8AM to 8PM eastern time) to find out how to obtain a replacement display/key-pad.
