5) Enter the IP address (found in step 4) into the address line of Internet Explorer and press the ENTER key on your keyboard (Figure 8). Figure 8 6) The local server should start and be functional. Figure 9 Using the Local Server The local server responds to single clicks and forwards the associated key to the pool controller. Once a button is clicked, local server status will be changed as appropriate. For instance, the status message displayed on the two by twenty character display may change. Led Status The local server shows LED status for buttons differently than the pool control's local display keypad or its associated remote controls. The LED status on the local server is shown as follows: GREEN - LED is ON BLUE - LED is BLINKING GRAY - LED is OFF Display Status The local server will also display status messages that are shown on the pool controller's two by twenty character display. The local server's display should match that of the pool controller. 6 Unlocking the Configuration Menu The local server can also unlock the pool configuration menu. This is done by clicking on the two by twenty character display while the "Configuration Menu-Locked" status is displayed. Clicking on the two by twenty character display at other times will have no effect. Setup web client functionality Aqua Connect Website Login Account Creation: If the homeowner is going to use the Aqua Connect website to control and/or monitor their pool, a login account on the Aqua Connect website needs to be established. The ACHN needs to be associated with a login account on the Aqua Connect website to control and/or monitor their pool via the web. A given ACHN can only be associated with a single manager level account. This is the account that owns the ACHN and that will be billed for renewals. You must have the MAC address of the ACHN unit available to complete the registration. Refer to the bottom of page 3 to determine the MAC address for your ACHN. Using a PC with Internet access, open your web browser and go to the website www.aquaconnectweb.com. Either log onto your existing account, or create a new account. Create a new account: • Select Set-Up NewAccount. • Go to the box entitled New Users: Enter NewAccount Information and fill out all of the required information. • After that, you should receive notice that your account has been created. At this point you are logged into your account. Register the ACHN and add your pool: • Select Add a Pool. • In the window titled Enter Site Information for this ACHN, enter all of the required information. Note that you can always go back and change information. • Select Add Pool at the bottom of the page. • If all of the information has been entered you will now see the Confirm Page which will give you one final chance to review the information you have entered. If you are satisfied that the information is correct, select Confirm. This will take you to a page that displays a receipt. Print this and keep it for your records. Verify your login account: • Logout, then login using the username and password you just set up. You must be able to get back into your account. • Once your username and password are accepted, you will be taken to the Dash- board for this pool. The Dashboard is the page where you monitor you pool (see below). No control is possible from the Dashboard. • Depending on how long it has been since the physical ACHN unit was installed, you may need to wait for the Dashboard to initialize. If you have to wait longer than 10 minutes, check the ACHN and make sure that the LINK LED is active (blinking). 7
