Lights Function
Although designated as the "Lights" output, the function of the lights relay is similar to the aux1 and aux2
relays. If pool lights are wired to the lights relay, some options including Solar function, Low Speed of a 2-
Speed Filter Pump, Lights Interlock and Lights Freeze Protection will not be necessary and should be
disabled. If no pool lights are used, the lights relay can be used to control other pool devices that may
require these options. The function of each option is shown below.
Manual On/Off (default)—the lights relay will alternate between turning on and off when the LIGHTS
button is pressed. There is no automatic control logic.
Countdown Timer—the lights relay will turn on when the LIGHTS button is pressed. The lights relay will
turn off automatically after a programmed time (see Timers Menu in Operation Manual). The LIGHTS
button can also be used to turn the output off.
Low Speed of a 2-speed Filter Pump – the Aqua Plus will turn on the lights relay whenever the low speed
operation of the filter pump is required. It is very important that the "2-speed" filter pump option be
selected under the "Filter Config." Menu for proper operation.
Timeclock – the lights relay will turn-on and turn-off at the times set for the lights timeclock in the Timers
Menu (see Timers Menu in Operation Manual). The LIGHTS button can also be used to turn the output
on and off.
Solar – the lights relay can operate a solar booster pump which will turn on when the filter pump is running
and solar heat is available and the water is less than the desired temperature setting. It is important to note
that "Solar Control" must be enabled in the "Solar Config." menu for proper operation to occur.
Super Chlorinate – if "Chlorinator" is enabled, this option allows the user to start a Super Chlorinate cycle
when the Lights button is pressed, rather than using the Settings Menu. Note that only one button can be
assigned to this function.
Lights Relay
This feature allows the user to select either "Standard" (default), "Dimmer" or "VSP" type relay for the
Lights output. The optional AQL-DIM dimmer kit must be installed if "Dimmer" is desired.
When "Dimmer" is selected, and the Lights output is manually turned on, the "+" and "-" buttons adjust
the level from 20% to 100% (default). The level is saved for the next time the lights are turned on.
