wiring diagram on page 19). When using a Variable Speed pump with SolarTouch
controller, set the desired speed at the pump from the Ext. Ctrl.* Program 2-4 (speed
buttons 2-4) menu options. Ext. Ctrl. Program 2 (speed buttons 2) is assigned for
solar heating and cooling. Ext. Ctrl. Program 3 (speed buttons 3) is assigned for

IntelliFlo and IntelliPro 4x160/VS-3050 Pump (Program 2, 3 & 4) Overview
Also see "
Solar Hold Feature for Heating and Cooling" on page 6.
Early models of the IntelliFlo and IntelliPro 4x160/VS-3050 pumps do not have a built
in programmable scheduler (time clock) function, External Controls or LCD display
on the pump. The SolarTouch controller assigns and controls the pump's Program
2 (Speed 2 button) for solar heat/cooling, Program 3 (Speed 3 button) for freeze
protection, and Program 4 (Speed 4 button) for Solar Hold (see page 6). When the
pump is used as the pool filter pump, the pump must be wired to an external time
clock. When the time clock turns on the pump, Program 1 (Speed 1 button) is used
for daily filtration. The LED indicator above the Program 1 (Speed 1 button) must be
illuminated before the time clock turns off. For the external time clock and the 4x160
pump to operate Program 1 (Speed 1 button) for daily filtration, please take note of the
following:
Time clock turns the pump on and off for daily use.
Set Speed 1 button (RPM) for everyday use and turn ON.
See page 13 for set up.
Speed 1 must be running when time clock turns off to ensure operation.
Setting Speed 1 for Daily Filtration (IntelliFlo and IntelliPro 4x160/VS-3050)
Set the speed (RPM) on the IntelliFlo 4x160/VS-3050 pump for the daily filtration
speed (RPM). Speed 1 must be running when the external time clock turns off. This will
ensure when the next program start time on the time clock activates the pump, will turn
on Speed 1.
Solar Override - (Only Using IntelliFlo and IntelliPro 4x160/VS-3050 Pump)
See page 19 for wiring diagram)
Solar Override is located under the Utilities menu, under the Advanced menu. The
default setting for Solar Override is "disabled" from the factory. When Solar Override
is disabled the system only runs during the variable speed pumps programmed run
schedule. When Solar Override is enabled it overrides the pumps schedule and runs
anytime solar heat is available.
Important Note: For the IntelliFlo 4x160/VS-3050 pump, when the SolarTouch
controller releases control of the pump, the pump will then in standalone mode and the
pump will save the last manual speed setting. The last manual speed setting is the last
speed 1-4 button pressed on the pump. Be sure the last manual speed setting is one
you want the pump to run when the SolarTouch controller has releases control and is
in pump standalone mode.
