![]() When both are unplugged, either reads 17 VDC pretty constantly. I took both rs485 connectors off of the screenlogic and the indoor control panel and checked them with a multimeter as Jim recommended. I actually went and looked at it and there was 0 power to that as well. The screenlogic isnt showing up in the application either when power is going to it. Just curious, why is that button there then? I thought I could hit the filter pump button on the outdoor panel while in service mode to turn the pump on and off, but I understand what you are saying now so that was my bad. I didn't realize that when saying "Screenlogic" you meant the protocol adapter but now I understand. I'm pretty sure they are both connected together for reasons below. ![]() You are right in that on the personality board, the right comm port is going to the pump, the left is going in the home to the garage and powers a screenlogic interface adapter and an indoor control panel. I'm wondering if somehow the comm port on the indoor unit died and is dragging the whole thing down.Ĭlick to expand.Hey Tom, thanks for the reply. either the cable to the indoor unit is bad or shorted, or the indoor unit and/or screenlogic is bad and drawing too much power - causing the other not to run. so the comms to the outdoor board seem ok. correction: i just re-read one of your posts that says the outdoor board is still controlling the pump. either the cable has been messed with or the pool guys have done something to damage the port. If you can't then there's something up with the comms. you should see the corresponding LED on the outdoor panel. At this point, you want to power back up and try to use the screenlogic to turn an aux circuit on/off. Shut the power down before doing this because if you short the data lines you'll break your comm chip. unplug the comm terminal block for the pump, and take the indoor controller off of the cable that goes to the screenlogic. did you disconnect the Screenlogic as well? What means is to disconnect everything except the screenlogic. You mentioned you disconnected the indoor panel. The screenlogic won't run if it's less than 8 or 9v. when the indoor unit won't turn on but you hear a faint high pitch noise coming from it, you'll frequently see the voltage from the black to red wires on the comm port is below 7 or 8 volts because something connected to the it is drawing too much current. is it getting power? The indoor could be causing a problem here. If the screenlogic isn't showing up in the application, i think that means it's not able to connect to your network via ethernet. when you set the outdoor panel to service mode, you effectively tell the intellitouch not to control the pump anymore and you have to run the pump from it's own panel. the comm port is just an rs485 bus, so I imagine the screenlogic and indoor are connected to the same cable that runs to the left comm port?Īnd as far as I know, you can never turn the pump on from the outdoor panel. on your i9 personality board, I see the pump connected to the right comm port and the cable that (i think) goes to the indoor controller/screenlogic on the left port. Maybe its a breaker problem or something? Not sure where to start troubleshooting this, but any help would be appreciated. Anyone have any insight as to why the indoor controller and pump control on the intellitouch itself would fail together? I pulled the intellitouch apart and nothing seems disconnected anywhere which would be odd if it was since nothing should have changed. If I put the system in service or timeout mode I am able to control my pump manually at the pump itself so there isn't any issue there. Whenever I try to run the pump from the intellitouch I just hear a click with no start up. ![]() ![]() My system is still running through the cycles just fine, though the pump cycle hasn't yet attempted to run today, but I am thinking that it will fail. I started messing around with the intellitouch in service mode and realized that Everything is working EXCEPT for the Filter Pump and the indoor controller. So I went to the controller and its getting no power anymore. Well, I go out there and set the system back to auto and try to access the indoor controller through the pentair app and it wasn't showing up. It turns out there were 2 pool people that came today and they weren't my regular guys which is why it was different. I thought this was odd cause the guy usually just does his thing, sets it back in auto and takes off. However, when the pool people left I noticed that they left the system in timeout mode with my waterfall running. Prior to this, my intellitouch system was working fine. Anyways, yesterday my pool people came out to service the pool. I have never worked with pool automation before but I think I am getting the hang of it. I recently moved into a home with an Intellitouch I9 system installed. ![]()
