Controls and buttons (Continued)
Valves (V) - (Pool/Spa/Fill (Spillway)/Drain) button:

Valves (V) button is in "Pool" mode. In this mode the valves are automatically rotated so
that only the pool water is circulated through the system and the filter pump is activated.
Pressing this button once enables "Spa" mode and activates the filter pump to circulate
only spa water through the system. "Fill/Spillway" and "Drain" mode can only be used
while in "Service" mode (See Mode button for details). "Fill/Spillway" and "Drain" mode
are used when cleaning the spa. Pressing the Valves (V) button again returns the system to
"Pool" mode. Note that the filter pump will switch off while the pool/spa valves are rotating
into position. The current operating mode is shown in the LCD display. Note: The Valves
button (Pool, Spa, Fill (Spillway), Drain) button has no function in "Pool only" or "Spa only"
systems. For an EasyTouch single body system, "Pool" and "Spa" modes are Lo- Temp
(Pool) and Hi-Temp (Spa) temperature controls. For more information, see "Hi-Temp/Lo-
Temp Controls for Single Body Systems," page 41.
Aux 1 - 7 buttons/LEDs:

lights and other equipment. These auxiliary circuits are assigned in the "Circuit Function"
menu, see page 39 for details. There are three auxiliary circuits (AUX 1- 3) on the EasyTouch
PNP 5 outdoor control panel and seven auxiliary circuits (AUX 1- 7) on EasyTouch PNP 10
outdoor control panel. The Solar button can also be used for an "extra" auxiliary circuit if the
Solar circuit is not being for solar equipment. Labels can be affixed next to each auxiliary
button to identify the circuit function. Labels can be affixed over each auxiliary button to identify
the circuit function. When an auxiliary circuit is activated or the button is pressed, the LED is
on. Pressing an auxiliary circuit button will activate the corresponding circuit in either "Auto"
or "Service" mode. When a circuit relay is switched on manually, it remains on until either you
switch it off manually, or the next time the relay is scheduled to be switched off. For example, if
the filter pump is scheduled to automatically run from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily then the filter
pump is switched on manually at 9:00 PM, it will run continuously until the next day at 6:00 PM
then switch off. The schedule will then continue from then on.
Heater (Flame) button/LED:

off control. The Heater LED will be on if "Heater" is enabled in the "Heat" menu setting (see
page 32). Switching the heater on automatically controls the output between a "forced off" state
and a normal automatic thermostatic control operating state. The heater will continue heating
the water until the heater's current highest set point temperature triggers the heater sensor
(approximately 40° C). Note that the Heater button does not activate the pump. Do not activate
the heater without running the pump. The heater will not run if water flow is not detected.
Solar (Sun) button/LED and (Aux Extra):
for manual solar heat on and off control. The Solar LED will be on if "Solar" is enabled in the
"Heat" menu setting. Solar must also be enabled in the "Solar" menu. Use the Solar button to
manually switch the heater control output between a "forced off" state and a normal automatic
thermostatic control operating state. When this button is pressed the solar relay is switched
on to activate a booster pump if installed and activates valves to rotate to divert water through
solar heating panels. If solar equipment is not being used, this button can also be used to
switch the AUX EXTRA circuit on and off.
Reset button:
Low voltage circuit breakers:
motherboard circuits, relays and valves.
Auxiliary output circuit buttons operate the pool and spa system valves,
This button is only used in "Service" mode for manual heat on and
Press this button to re-initialise the EasyTouch outdoor control panel.
Three amp circuit breakers protect the low voltage system
When in normal operating mode, the
In solar mode this button is only used in "Service" mode
