Operation - Hayward GOLD LINE CONTROLS Aqua Logic Aqua Pod PRO LOGIC Operation Manual

Range and Location
The Aqua Pod is wireless and portable. Its unique weathertight housing and floating
design allows it to be used outdoors, even while inside the pool or spa.
The Aqua Pod must be used within 200 ft. (assuming the signal will have to travel
through walls) or 400 ft. (line of sight) from the Base Station which is typically mounted
on the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic main control unit at the pool equipment pad. Note that
the AQL2-BASE-RF Base Station can also be mounted up to 500 ft. away from the
control unit to shorten the distance between it and any wireless remote. See the
"Remote Mounting of the Base Station" section of the Base Station manual for more
details.
The wireless remote display/keypad communicates with the base station on the Pro
Logic/Aqua Logic control unit using 900 MHz RF (frequency hopping spread spec-
trum ) technology.
If the display information is not being updated on a regular basis or if the Pro Logic/
Aqua Logic is not responding to buttons being pressed, then refer to the Trouble-
shooting section for assistance in resolving these problems.

Operation

The Aqua Pod handheld control gives the user the power to program all the operating
parameters of the Pro Logic/Aqua Logic control system remotely as well as viewing
equipment status and temperatures. The following information discusses the Aqua
Pod's display and pushbuttons.

1. Signal Present
The Signal Present icon shows the status of the radio connection between the Aqua
Pod and the AQL2-BASE-RF base station. When the icon appears, there is adequate
signal strength for communication between the Aqua Pod and the AQL-BASE-RF.
When no icon is displayed, the signal is too low for communications. Note that signal
strength will decrease as the Aqua Pod is moved further away from the AQL2-BASE-
RF or if obstructions such as walls, fences, etc. are located between the Aqua Pod and
AQL2-BASE-RF.
