Setting up MagicStream
The MagicStream Laminar provide a clear, turbulence-free stream of water that is lit with a fiber optic cable,
or an LED light for a dazzling nighttime effect. The 12 VAC powered LED light can generate a series of
multicolored light shows, or can be set to display a continuous, single color. If desired, the built-in solenoid
"thumper" can create a random "wrinkle," in the Laminar's stream, causing it to display a brilliant spot of light
that moves along the stream's arc. The light enhancer can be adjusted to maximize the light in the arc.
Up to three (3) MagicStream Laminar circuits can be displayed on the main Lights screen, assuming each
laminar has its own relay and separate circuit.. From the Lights screen you can activate the MagicStream
laminars (changing color modes, turn Thumper on/off, Hold and Reset, see page 29). For more information,
see the MagicStream Laminar Installation Guide, P/N 520969.
Setting up MagicStream Laminar LED Lights
To setup MagicStream laminar circuits, first assign each laminar auxiliary relay circuit a circuit name (see
"Circuit Names" page 42, then assigned the laminar relay circuit name to "MAGICSTREAM" in the circuit
functions menu (Circuit Func.).

Up/Down buttons: Select the circuit number 1/7. Press the Up button two times to

select AUX 1 to choose this circuit for the MagicStream laminar circuit On/Off button.
The generic circuits names are: Spa, Pool, Aux 1-3, FEATURE 1-2 (Ft. 1-2).
The circuit number (1/7) corresponds to its assigned circuit name.

Right button: Select one of the system preset circuit names and/or user defined

custom circuit names.
Up/Down buttons: Scroll through the list of preset names (see page 38 for a
complete list of circuit names). Select a name that describes where the MagicStream

laminar is located or that suits the function, such as "Stream." AUX 1 has now been
assigned the circuit name "Stream." for the first MagicStream laminar. Repeat this
step for the next laminar circuit. If you cannot find a name to match your circuit, you
can create your own custom name (see page 46).
Press the Menu button to return to the Settings menu. Press the Down button to and
select "Circuit Func." Press the Right button to access the Circuit Func. menu.
Up/Down buttons: Select the already assigned circuit name "Stream."
Right button: View the "Circuit Functions" to assign to laminar circuit "Stream."
Up/Down buttons: Select the type of circuit function to use, in this case select
"MAGICSTREAM." The circuit function names are: LIGHT, SAM LIGHT, SAL
LIGHT, PHOTON GEN, COLOR WHEEL, VALVE, SPILLWAY, FLOOR CLEANER,
INITELLIBRITE, MAGICSTREAM, GENERIC, and MSTR CLEANER. For a complete
list of preset circuit functions, see "Preset Circuit Functions" on page 45.
Right button/ Up Button: Turn "Freeze" protection ON.
Press the Menu button three times to return to the main screen.
