Hayward E-Command 4 Installation Manual

4. Configuration Setup
After plumbing and wiring are complete, the ECOMMAND 4 MUST BE CONFIGURED before at-
tempting to operate. Configuration information is entered at the keypad and “tells” the ECOMMAND 4
what equipment is connected and how each should be controlled.
Accessing the Configuration Menus
Configuring the ECOMMAND 4 requires that you navigate through the Configuration Menu and input
various information. For more detailed information about using the ECOMMAND 4 menu system, refer
to the Operation Manual.

possibly damaging the pool equipment or causing a “call back” to fix the configuration.

Chlorinator
If the optional external chlorinator is enabled (requires the use of a Goldline Aqua Rite or
Hayward Swimpure chlorinator), the ECOMMAND 4 will automatically chlorinate both the
pool and spa according to the desired output setting (see Settings Menu in the Operation
manual). If disabled (default), all displays relating to the chlorinator will be suppressed.
When the chlorinator is enabled, the ECOMMAND 4 will automatically detect and control
any Aqua Rite/Swimpure(s) that is installed in the system (see page 13).
Display
Allows for the display of salt (default) or mineral values.

Base Station
Plug in the pigtail connector from the wireless base station into the “wireless” connector on the main PCB
in the ECOMMAND 4 control unit.
Goldline Aqua Rite or Hayward Swimpure Chlorinator
The ECOMMAND 4 can control one or more Goldline Aqua Rite or Hayward Swimpure chlorinators
when additional sanitizing capacity is required. A 4 wire connection is used to communicate to the Aqua
Rite/Swimpure and can be wired up to 500' apart. Any outdoor rated 4 conductor cable can be used.
Refer to the wiring diagrams below for proper wiring connection to the Aqua Rite/Swimpure. NOTE:
There must be only 1 "primary" unit. All other Aqua Rite/Swimpure units must be configured as "second-
ary".
