Notes INTRODUCTION The Intermatic Multipurpose 24-Hour Control is an easy to program three-circuit mechanism capable of automatically switching loads according to a preset daily schedule and providing control over a variety of different applications. This control is designed to switch resistive loads up to 17 amps, and can handle single phase motor loads up to 17 Full Load Amps (FLA) for each individual circuit.
WARNINGS AND GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION Clearing all scheduled ON/OFF Events Quickly WARNING Risk of Fire or Electric Shock • Disconnect all power before installing or servicing this control or its connected loads. • Follow all local electrical and safety codes, National Electric Code (NEC), as well as Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). • If the power disconnect point is out of sight, lock it in the “OFF” position and tag it to prevent unexpected application of power.
Viewing the Software Revision Level It may be necessary to view the revision level of the internal programming for service purposes, or compatibility issues with future Intermatic Designs. To do so, simply follow the below procedure: 1. Make sure the Multipurpose Control is not in programming mode. Press and hold down the ENTER key until the display changes. 2. After 5 seconds, the display should change to the revision level. The r1 stands for revision one, r2 for revision two and so on. 3.
Heater Firemen Switch Connection – This connector is where you would connect the two firemen switch wires that connect to the Pool/Spa heater. The installer supplies the wires and connectors. The connectors should be female spade connectors crimped to insulated type wire. This connection is a SPST contact that simply provides a switch closure for the Remote Activation Wires coming from the heater. It does not supply voltage to the heater thermostat. Refer to Page 30 for programming information.
WARNING CUT WIRES HERE AND USE WIRE NUTS FOR CONNECTING FIREMEN SWITCH WIRES FROM HEATER. If voltage selector is in wrong position, the F1 fuse will blow and you may cause damage to circuit board voiding the manufactures warranty. 240V 120 If the input voltage for the clock is 120 Volts, this jumper needs to be set to the 120 Volt position. 240V 120 The cleaner pump should always be connected to circuit #3 and the mode setting should be set to #3 or #4, depending on the filter pump configuration.
STEP #2 Freeze Control Display INSTALLING THE SHUTTER BUSHING The following example illustrates how the display will look when the freeze protection feature is activated. In this example, the freeze sensor was connected, enabling the freeze protection feature. Circuits #1 & #3 were programmed to come on during a freeze condition.
Display Definitions Cool Down (Fireman Switch) Runtime Display The following example illustrates how the display will look when the cool down feature is activated. In this example, the cool down time was set for 5 minutes, and is in the process of counting down to zero, showing minutes and seconds. The AUX1 indicator is blinking indicating the cool down feature is activated for circuit #1.
STEP #4 STEP #10 SNAP THE MULTIPURPOSE CONTROL INTO THE INTERMATIC PANEL Setting Freeze Protection NOTE IMPORTANT NOTE Since you have easy access to the back of the Multipurpose Control, make sure you properly set the source voltage selector jumper to the voltage (i.e. 120V or 240V), you intend to use for powering the Multipurpose Control. This jumper is located on the back of the control (See Figure #1 for location and setting). Installation Procedure 1.
STEP #9 Setting The Cool Down Time (Fireman Switch) NOTE The cool down time is a time defined by the programmer. It’s used in conjunction with a pool heater, (See Fig. #1 for heater hookup), and it’s defined as the additional time the pump will run over and beyond the desired pump OFF time with the Fireman switch open. If a time is programmed,the cool down cycle will occur in all cases, even if the user turns off the pump.
DISPLAY Indicates time of day and programming settings during programming mode. 12345 67 Figure #5 12 4. Use the Up and Down arrows keys to define the stop time for circuit #1’s 1st event. Press and release the Enter key when complete. The program will now advance to the second event for circuit #1. ENTER BUTTON This button is used to save programming changes to memory and exit programming mode.
28 13 1. If you pressed and released the program key from the previous procedure, you should see the following display, if not, press and release the program key twice to get to the following display. The display is defined as: Circuit #1’s first event has not been defined. You have the ability to program up to three separate events per load or circuit. An event is defined as a complete On and Off cycle. 2. Use the Up and Down arrow keys to define the Start time for circuit #1’s 1st event.
STEP #7 Setting The Time 1. Press and release the program key. The displayed time will start to blink, and the program menu will display Set Clock. 2. Use the Up and Down arrows to change the time. Take note of the AM and PM indicator when setting time. 3. When desired time is indicated, either press and release the Enter key to save and exit programming, or press and release the program key to save and go on to the next programming feature.
IMPORTANT NOTE Setting The Mode 1. With a small blunt instrument, press and hold the Mode Button (Approximately 5 seconds) until the display shows SET MODE and the Mode Number blinks. 2. Use the Up and Down arrow keys to cycle through all available modes. Each circuit output will be defined as you cycle through the available modes. 3. Once the desired mode number is displayed, press and release the ENTER key. This saves it to memory and exits the set mode programming.
STEP #6 MULTIPURPOSE CONTROL RATINGS, WIRING AND SETTING THE MODE IMPORTANT NOTE There are seven modes to choose from depending on your pool or spa equipment configuration. Each mode has specific programming, timing, and lockout features that are designed to work with specific types of pool or spa equipment. Mode setting is generally done only once and usually during the initial installation. It is purposely difficult to enter the mode-changing program and should only be done by a Qualified Installer.
Mode 6 – (Aux1, Aux2, Aux3) Each of the three single pole circuits are defined generically, and can control any load within each of its individual circuit ratings. All three circuits act independent of each other. The fireman switch closes when circuit one is activated manually by the user and opens when the user manually turns OFF circuit one. The fireman switch remains open when circuit one is activated by a programmed time event. 6 IMPORTANT NOTE CONCERNING SETTING THE ON/OFF TIMES FOR EACH MODE 1.
Example: You would like to run the pump in high speed for 6 hours and low speed for the remainder of the time. Program a 6-hour event for high speed, and an 18-hour event for low speed. Do not turn the low speed on manually, and program a 6-hour event for high speed. The high speed will not occur.
Mode 4 – (Pump High, Pump Low, Cleaner Pump) Circuit one and two are dedicated single pole outputs for a two-speed pump load. Circuits one and two will never be ON at the same time, consistent with a two-speed pump application. Circuit three is also a dedicated single pole output for a pressure side cleaner pump. Circuit three will never come on unless circuit one is on for at least one minute, consistent with a pressure side cleaner pump.
Mode 2 – (Pump High, Pump Low, Aux3) Circuit one and two are dedicated single pole outputs for a twospeed pump load. Circuits one and two will never be ON at the same time, consistent with a two-speed pump application. Circuit three is single pole circuit for a generic load, and independent of circuits one and two. High Speed Line Mode 3 – (Pump, Aux2, Cleaner Pump) Circuit one and three are dedicated single pole outputs for a single speed pump working with a pressure side cleaner pump.
