Pool/Spa Setup
If "Pool Only" or "Spa Only" are selected, then the pool/spa valves are not needed and pushing the POOL/
SPA button on the display/keypad will have no effect. If "Pool and Spa" is selected, then the pool/spa
suction and return valve actuators should be connected to the Aqua Plus. Pressing the POOL/SPA button
on the display/keypad will allow the homeowner to alternate between pool and spa operation.
Spa CountDn
This menu will appear only if Pool/Spa Setup is set to "Pool and Spa". This setting is the time, after you
manually switch the Pool/Spa valves to "Spa Only", until the Aqua Plus automatically returns the valves
to their previous positions. It is programmed in increments of 5 minutes, from "Manual On/Off" (0 minutes)
to "21:00" (21 hours). The filter is forced on during this time period.
Spa Spillover
When spa spillover is "Enabled" and "Pool and Spa", the homeowner will be able to rotate through "Pool
Only" (both suction and return valves switched to pool), "Spa Only" (both suction and return valves
switched to spa) and "Spillover" (suction valve switched to pool and return valve switched to spa) by
successive presses of the "Pool/Spa button.
Filter Operation
If "Spa Spillover" is selected, the Aqua Plus will automatically switch the pool/spa suction and return
valves to "spillover" at the start of the programmed pool filtering time period or when the super-chlorinate
function is turned on. The valves will remain in this position for the remainder of the super-chlorinate
period. This option is usually preferable because both the pool and spa water will be filtered and sanitized.
If "Pool Only" is selected, then the Aqua Plus will switch the pool/spa valves to the "pool only" position
at the start of the programmed pool filtering time period or when the super-chlorinate function is turned on.
This may be desirable on some systems with in-floor cleaners because it allows the cleaner to operate all
the time the pool is being filtered and/or the super chlorinate is running.
V1=Aux1, V2=Aux2
This menu appears only if the Pool/Spa Setup is "Pool Only" or "Spa Only". When enabled, Valve 1
(return) will follow the Aux1 output and Valve 2 (suction) will follow the Aux2 output. When disabled
(default), the return and suction pool/spa valves function normally.
Filter Off Valve Change
This menu appears only if Pool/Spa setup is set to "Pool and Spa - Std". When enabled (default), the filter
pump will shut off for 35 seconds whenever the Pool/Spa valves are turning. The pump will NOT shut off
when a heater is in Heater Cooldown mode.

Subpanel
The Aqua Plus Control Center requires both high and low voltage connections. Low voltage connections will be made
to actuators, sensors, remote keypad, etc. High voltage connections will be made to pumps, lights, etc., as well as
providing direct input power to the Control Center. Always:
-Ensure that Power is disconnected prior to doing any wiring
-Follow all local and NEC (CEC if applicable) codes
-Use copper conductors only
Main Service (Power to the Circuit Breaker Subpanel)
The Aqua Plus circuit breaker subpanel is rated for 100A service. Run properly rated conductors (L1, L2, N, and
ground) from the primary house electrical panel to the main power connections on the Aqua Plus circuit breaker base.
The connection at the main house panel should be to a 240VAC circuit breaker rated at 100A maximum.

Grounding and Bonding

Connect a ground wire from the primary electrical panel to the Aqua Plus ground bus bar. Also ground each piece of
high voltage (120 or 240VAC) equipment that is connected to the Aqua Plus control relays or circuit breakers. The
Aqua Plus should also be connected to the pool bonding system by an 8AWG (6AWG for Canada) wire. A lug for
bonding (2 for Canada) is provided on the outside/bottom of the Aqua Plus enclosure.

Circuit Breaker Installation and Wiring

Circuit breakers are to be supplied by the installer. Refer to the circuit breaker chart below for a list of suitable circuit
breakers that can be used. Follow the code and the circuit breaker manufacturer's rating requirements regarding the
size and temperature rating for wiring. Note that some pool equipment may be required to be connected to ground
fault circuit breakers—check local and NEC (CEC) codes.
