Setting up Lighting Options (Color Swim and Color Set) - Requires use of at
least two SAm and/or SAL and/or Fiberworks Lighting products controlled by separate AUX circuits
There can be up to 12 light circuits on the main Lights screen. From this screen you can activate the
“Color Swim” and Color Set” special lighting features. These special features each must have their own
relay and separate circuits.
Color Swim and Color Set
Although the same screen is used to program the ColorSwim and ColorSet features, these two special
lighting effects operate independently of each other. It may take up to a minute or more for Color Swim
or Color Set to operate as programmed, depending on what kind of light you are activating and what
state it was in when the effect was activated.
• ColorSwim- Allows any combination of up to 12 SAm, SAL, and/or FIBERworks lighting circuits
to be preset to transition through colors in sequence, giving the appearance of the colors swimming
across the water. The delay in sequencing each light can be adjusted to customize the display for your
pool. This feature requires the use of at least two SAm, SAL, and/or FIBERworks lighting products
controlled by separate AUX circuits and relays.
• ColorSet- Allows any combination of up to 12 SAm, SAL, and/or FIBERworks lighting circuits to be
preset to specic colors. For example, you can set the colors for red, white, and blue, or red and green.
• Sync-Switches all color changing lights ON to synchronize their colors.
• SmartStart(SS_Yes and SS_No) - The Smart Start feature allows light circuits that are programmed to
switch on at a specic time, automatically begin changing their colors. For more information see page 15.
Setting up Color Swim and Color Set with SAm, SAL, or FIBERworks
Both the
ColorSwim and ColorSet feature can be congured and operated from the Lights screen, but
operate independently of each other. Depending on what kind of light is being switched on and what
state it was in when the lighting effect was activated, it may take up to a minute or more for Color Swim
or Color Set to operate as programmed. The Color Swim feature creates the illusion of bands of colors
moving through the water. This is accomplished by switching on each light with a specic color in a
specied order at different time intervals. The order and time delay between lights can be mixed and
matched to create many different effects. For example, colors moving left to right, one body of water to
another, from the middle outward, etc.
To assign light circuits to the Lights screen:
Before Starting: Be sure the auxiliary circuits that control the lights have been assigned names. Then
verify that SAm and SAL lights have been assigned in the “CIRCUIT FUNCTIONS” as SAM and SAL
lights. If FIBERworks lighting is being used, it also has to be set up as a PHOTON GENERATOR for
the circuit controlling the light bulb, and COLOR WHEEL for the circuit controlling the color wheel
(see page 41).
Setting up Color Swim and Color Set lights
The following steps (see next page) describes how to setup an AUX circuit to control the Color Swim
and Color Set lighting features. The rst step is to assign the circuit light function an auxiliary relay
circuit (AUX 1), then assign the circuit name for that light circuit. The light circuit name will appear
on the main screen. Each light (SAM or SAL) must also be assigned a circuit function. If the circuit
function has been assigned, start at Step 5 (see next page).
