• Kableatua: Connect the main power supply to the load center. Refer to the detailed wiring diagram located on the inside of the enclosure door (see Figure 2) for specific connections of the filter pump, heater, and other pool/spa equipment.
• Breaker instalazioa: Utilize the eight available breaker spaces for necessary circuit protection for your pool/spa equipment.
• Eragilearen instalazioa: Install the two PE24VA valve actuators onto the appropriate pool/spa valves. Connect the actuator wiring to the control system as per the wiring diagram.
• Berogailuaren kontrola: Connect the 3-wire heater control system to your pool/spa heater according to the heater manufacturer's instructions and the RC2163BFE wiring diagram.

Garrantzitsua: Before energizing the system, double-check all wiring connections for correctness and security. Ensure proper grounding.

5. Konfigurazioa

After successful installation and power-up, configure the system for your specific pool/spa operation.

1. Ezarri uneko ordua: Use the digital timer interface to set the current time of day. Refer to the timer's specific instructions for detailed programming steps.
2. Program ON/OFF Cycles: Program the desired ON/OFF times for your pool filter pump and other connected loads. The timer allows for 24-hour scheduling.
3. Configure Pool/Spa Modes: The system includes a switch to select between Pool and Spa modes. Ensure the valve actuators are correctly calibrated to align with these modes.
4. Heater Temperature Settings: If connected to a dual thermostat heater/heat pump, set the desired pool and spa temperatures on the heater unit itself. The RC2163BFE will signal the heater to switch between these pre-set temperatures based on the selected mode.

6. Funtzionamendu-argibideak

The RC2163BFE system offers flexible control options:

• Funtzionamendu automatikoa: Once programmed, the system will automatically control the ON/OFF cycles of your pool/spa equipment and switch valve actuators according to the set schedule.
• Eskuz gainditzea: The digital timer typically includes a manual override function to temporarily turn loads ON or OFF outside of the programmed schedule.
• Spa Mode Digital Override: To activate spa mode and its associated settings (e.g., heater temperature, specific pump cycles), use the dedicated digital override timer. This allows for temporary activation of spa functions without altering the main pool schedule.
• Urruneko kontrola (hala badagokio): If a wireless receiver/transmitter or Ascend Smart In-Wall timer is integrated, follow their respective instructions for remote operation of the system.

7. Mantentzea
