7. Troubleshooting
Common Issues and Solutions
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No Wireless Connection | Power outage, loose cable, out of range, network issue. | Check power to all components. Ensure cables are securely connected. Verify wireless signal strength. Restart router and pool control system. |
| App Not Syncing/Updating | Outdated app/firmware, server issues, poor internet connection. | Update the ScreenLogic app and Protocol Adapter firmware. Check your home internet connection. Contact Pentair support if server issues persist. |
| Intermittent Connection | Wireless interference, distance from router/power center. | Relocate the indoor receiver closer to the router or the outdoor transceiver. Minimize interference from other wireless devices. |
| Incorrect Temperature Readings | Faulty temperature sensor (not directly related to wireless kit, but a common pool system issue). | Consult your IntelliTouch system manual for sensor troubleshooting. |
Note: For complex issues or if you are unsure about any step, it is recommended to contact a qualified pool technician or Pentair customer support.
