MobileTouch Wireless Controller
The MobileTouch wireless controller provides the same functionality as
the IntelliTouch Indoor Control Panel. It has an operating range of up to
300 ft. from the MobileTouch antenna (Transceiver), which is typically
located near the IntelliTouch load center. The optimum wireless
transmit and receive range may be affected by physical obstructions,
(especially those containing metal), and geographical features.
The MobileTouch controller LCD (liquid crystal display) can be
sensitive to sunlight. When exposed for extended periods, the LCD
screen will heat up and turn black. If this happens, place the remote in
a shaded area and allow the screen to cool down. Do not attempt to
adjust the contrast or the screen will be unreadable when it eventually
cools. When used outside, keep the remote covered or in a shaded
area. Prolonged exposure to sunlight may permanently damage the
unit.
WARNING! Do not plug in the AC adapter to a power source
within five (5) feet of the pool and spa. Canadian installations require a
minimum of (3) meters from pool water. Do not recharge outdoors.
Only use Pentair approved AC adapter transformer.
The MobileTouch wireless controller is water resistant and can be
exposed to temporary splashing or wet hands. However, the controller
is not intended to be submersible. Remove unit immediately if it is
dropped in the water or exposed to rain. Store the unit indoors in a dry
environment. Be sure the gold charging contacts are dry before
charging.

Charging the MobileTouch Wireless Controller
When you are not using the MobileTouch controller, place it in the
cradle to recharge the battery. This allows the battery to be fully
charged at all times.
To charge the MobileTouch controller battery:
• Plug the AC adapter into an AC wall outlet.
• Insert the AC Adapter plug into the bottom of the cradle.
• Place the MobileTouch controller in the cradle.
What to do if the battery requires charging?
• If the MobileTouch controller screen is blank this may
indicate that battery cannot power the device and needs
recharging. Place the unit in it’s cradle to fully recharge the
battery. A complete battery charge takes about 3 to 4 hours.
Note: If the battery requires replacement, only use
Pentair battery (/P/N 520815Z).
Using the MobileTouch Wireless Controller
The range of the MobileTouch wireless controller can be up to 300 feet
from its transceiver antenna. The antenna is typically located near the
IntelliTouch Load Center. The unit can be used all day at full power
with a complete battery charge (3 to 4 hours).
To use the MobileTouch wireless controller:
1. To use the MobileTouch controller, remove it from the cradle.
Note: The MobileTouch can also be used while seated in
the cradle with AC power connected to the cradle.
2. Press the “Power” button on the front right-side to switch the
unit ON or OFF. The LCD backlight will turn off in five
minutes if not in use.

Installing the MobileTouch Transceiver
For optimum wireless connectivity locate the MobileTouch Transceiver
(antenna) near the IntelliTouch load center. The Transceiver optimum
wireless transmit and receive range may be affected by physical
obstructions, (especially those containing metal), weather conditions,
and geographical features. The MobileTouch controller has an
operating range of up to 300 ft. from the MobileTouch Transceiver. The
Transceiver kit includes a connection cable (10 ft). However, the cable
length can be lengthened up to 300 ft for optimum wireless connectivity.
To install the Transceiver:
1. Choose an installation location for the Transceiver near the
IntelliTouch load center.
2. Remove the two lower retaining screws from the
Transceiver and slide the Transceiver case up to remove it
from the back plate.
3. Remove the Transceiver circuit board from the back plate by
carefully lifting it up out of the back plate supports. Place the
circuit board on a clean dry surface away from direct
sunlight.
4. Mount the Transceiver back plate (see page 6) onto a flat
wooden surface, such as a wooden fence, or post. While
holding the back plate, install two lower mounting screws
through the back plate lower mounting holes. Tighten the
screws to secure the back plate in place. Install two screws
through the upper mounting holes.
5. Slide the Transceiver circuit board into the back plate into the
board side supports.
6. Route the Transceiver cable up through the bottom of the
back plate (see page 7) to the screw terminal connector.
7. Insert the four wires into the screw terminals of the
Transceiver connector. Using a small flat-blade screwdriver,
secure the wires with the screws. Make sure to match the
color coding of the four wires (see page 7 for wiring
diagram).
8. Carefully slide the case over the Transceiver antenna and
secure it to the back plate with the two lower retaining
screws.
9. Proceed with “Connecting the Transceiver cable to the
IntelliTouch Personality board” on page 7.

Serial COM Port Expansion Board Optional (for use
with IntelliTouch® and EasyTouch® systems)
If there is not an available COM port for the Transceiver cable plug on
the IntelliTouch Personality board, the optional Serial COM port
Expansion Board (P/N 520818) can be used for additional COM ports
connections.
Mounting the Expansion Board
1. Remove the inside terminal connectors (with wires attached)
from the Expansion board and connect it to a COM port on
the Personality board.
Note: If this a new Load Center installation, you’ll have
to remove one of the existing (empty) terminal connectors
from the Personality board to allow for the Expansion
board terminal connector. You can place the (empty)
connector onto the available COM port on the
Expansion board.
2. Mount the Expansion board on to the back wall in the low
voltage compartment of the IntelliTouch or EasyTouch load
center using the four adhesive backed supports.
3. Proceed to “Connecting the Transceiver cable plug to the
Serial COM Port Expansion Board,” on page 12.
