Wireless Touch Pad Pre-wiring InstructionsDescription:The Touch Pad sends a digital signal to the cover receiver unit which is mounted in the cover housing.The signal is received through the remote antenna that is connected to the receiver board. The Touch Pad must be located in line of sight of the antenna. (See "Wireless Touch Pad Placement and Antenna Mounting" instructions.)There are no wires required to be run to the Touch Pad, it is powered by a long life lithium batterywith a 5 year life expectancy. Only power wires need to be run to the receiver board and the receiver board is wired to the pool cover motor or hydraulic pump motor.Touch Pad:The Touch Pad is operated by pushing and holding either the cover, or uncover buttons. The Touch Pad can be locked off or on with the lock provided. Up to 3 Touch pads may be installed to operate the same cover. Touch Pad Mounting:The Touch Pad comes in a 2" x 4" bezel mounted in a separate standoff box. The Touch Pad can be mounted in a standard recessed wall box if you choose. The Touch Pad must be mounted in full view of the pool cover and must be 5 feet above the deck to meet codes. Hydraulic Installations:Hydraulic power units are typically mounted in a remote location from the pool. Your power wires for the Touch Pad will run to the hydraulic power unit location. The antenna attached to the receiver boardmust be located in line of site with the Touch Pad for reception. The antenna has a 10 ft cord and maybe able to be mounted in a good reception location. If not the receiver will have to be extended away from the hydraulic system until the antenna is in a good reception location. Do not cut or extend the antenna wire. It has been tuned for a specific length and will not work if changed. Electrical Requirements:120 V AC dedicated line from 15 amp G.F.C.I. 3# 14 AWG wires, hot, neutral and ground. (Run's longer than 50 ft, may require larger wires.) Conduit from breaker must terminate in motor side of housing with at least 3 feet of flex conduit plus wires.

Wireless Touch Pad Placement and Antenna MountingMounting locations for Aluminum Lid - Bench - Hydraulic systemsThe antenna for the Wireless Touch Pad receiver is mounted on top of the aluminum lid or outside the bench assembly. The antenna has a 10 ft. cable and can be extended out to a clear line of reception. Never cut the antenna cable.On aluminum lids the antenna should be mounted on the lid since it is moved less than the lid ends. The Wireless Touch Pad control can be mounted within an 80 ft. circle of the antenna as long as there are no obstructions between the antenna and the Touch Pad. Hydraulic pump units are usually mounted away from the pool. In this case you will need to use the same distance requirement from the antenna location. If the antenna cannot be mounted in line of reception you may need to move the receiver box off the hydraulic unit so the antenna is in range.Always test the reception from the proposed Touch Pad mounting location before permenantly mountingthe Touch Pad! Make sure the cable is secured to the housing. RECEIVERANTENNA LIDMounting locations for Vanishing Lid mounted antenna systemsAntenna mounted to bottom front of lid tray with double sidedtape and fully extended toward center of mechanism. The antenna for the Wireless Touch Pad receiver is mounted on the underneath side of a lid tray. This location will be somewhat obstructed and you will need to insure the antenna is as far forward on the front of the tray as possible. The antenna should be mounted as far towards the center trays of the lid as possible with the 10 ft. cable. Never cut the antenna cable. The reason is to get the antenna out and exposed to the radio signal from the Touch Pad. Antenna located under lids, stone or other material may not receive a signal coming from behind the lid. It may be possible to get reception in these areas but, you will need to test first to see how well the system receives before choosing a mounting location.Antenna  80 feet 80 feet 80 feet 80 feet 80 feet 80 feet   80 feet80 feetSAVE-T COVER IIcoveruncoverRoffoncover-pools, inc.SAVE-T COVER IIcoveruncoverRoffoncover-pools, inc.SAVE-T COVER IIcoveruncoverRoffoncover-pools, inc.SAVE-T COVER IIcoveruncoverRoffoncover-pools, inc.Locationtouch pad maximum range clear line of receptiontouch pad maximum range clear line of receptiontouch pad maximum range clear line of receptiontouch pad maximum range clear line of receptionAlways test the reception from the proposed Touch Pad mounting location before permenantly mountingthe Touch Pad!
