Step 1

The Aqua Connect Home Network is compatible with all Pro Logic and Aqua Plus

controls operating with software revision r4.20 or higher and Aqua Rite Pro con-

trols operating with software revision r1.20 or higher. To verify software revision,

refer to your installation manual. An AQL2-BASE-RF Base Station (sold sepa-

rately) must be installed on your Pro Logic, Aqua Rite Pro or Aqua Plus before

installing your Aqua Connect Home Network. For detailed installation instruc-

tions, refer to the AQL2-BASE-RF instruction manual.

a. At the Pro Logic or Aqua Rite Pro, press the “Menu”

button (possibly multiple times) until “Settings

Menu” is displayed.

b. Press “<“ or “>” (again, possibly multiple times)

until “Teach Wireless” is displayed.

c. Press the “+” button. The pool controller should

now say "Press and hold Wireless button".

d. With the Aqua Connect Home Network close by

and powered up, depress the Teach button and con-

tinue to hold it down, until all 4 LEDs are on solid.

At this point you must release the Teach button.

e. The RF LED on the Aqua Connect Home Network

should be rapidly blinking. This indicates that Teach

Mode has been entered.

f. The pool controller should then report “Teach Wire-

less: Successful”. After this, the RF LED on the

Aqua Connect Home Network should always be

ON.

Step 4

With the Aqua Connect Home Net-

work in the chosen location, plug in

the power cord. Plug the ethernet

cable into the Aqua Connect Home

Network and then into an open port

on the router. Wait for 30 seconds

and then look at the LEDs on the

front panel. What you should see is:

The RF LED should be on most or all of the time.

Step 5 Step 6

To control your Pro Logic, Aqua Rite Pro or Aqua

Plus remotely through the web, go to

www.aquaconnectweb.com where, after set-

ting up a new user account, you’ll be able to

enjoy a brief trial period. Call 1-800-HAYWARD

to subscribe for continuing web functionality. Be

sure to have your Aqua Connect Home

Network’s MAC address handy when you call.

Refer to Step 5 for the location of the Aqua Con-

nect Home Network’s MAC address. Once an

account has been setup, you should be able to

login and remotely monitor and control your pool

through an internet connection.

Find the last 3 characters of the Aqua

Connect Home Network’s MAC ad-

dress (on label beneath base) and

write them down. Now go to any PC

in your home network and open the

web browser. On your browser’s ad-

dress line, type “mypoolxyz” (where

x, y, and z are the last 3 characters

in the Aqua Connect Home

Network’s MAC address) and then press the Enter key (do not type “www” or

“.com”). The local server should start and your browser will display a page that

is similar to your pool controller. You should now be able to control your Pro

Logic, Aqua Rite Pro or Aqua Plus using this web page. If not, refer to the

manual for alternatives to this step.
