8.2 Planning the Installation
Before installing your Pool Pilot
®
:
1.
Determine everything needed for installation is on hand.
2.
Determine where the Manifold Assembly will be plumbed.
3.
Identify a suitable mounting location for the Pool Pilot
®
close enough, less than 12’ (3.6 m), to ensure
that the cell cord and Tri-sensor cord will reach the manifold components. Plan the routing for the cell
and Tri-sensor cables.
4.
For the optional retractable pool cover installations with the Digital Nano / Nano+ models (the 863A
Expansion Board must be purchased and installed):
a.
Procure / Install dry contact cover position switch or retractable cover controller as needed.
b.
Plan cable (not provided) run from cover position switch to Digital Nano / Nano+.
5.
Determine whether the input voltage for the Pool Pilot
®
will be 110-120 Vac or 220-240 Vac.
6.
Plan wire runs and wiring connections for source power.
7.
Determine origination point for the Pool Pilot
®
control unit power feed:
a.
Directly from a circuit breaker. (Circuit breaker is used to power the Pool Pilot
®
and circulation
pump.)
b.
From an external timer or an electronic controller. (Pool Pilot
®
is to be wired to the same
location as the circulation pump; the Pool Pilot
®
is activated when the circulation pump is
energized.)
