HLWALLMOUNT Overview
The HLWALLMOUNT provides convenient access to monitoring and controlling a pool. It’s a wired touchscreen terminal that directly connects to the OmniLogic automation controller. It fastens to an indoor wall.
Description and Functionality
The HLWALLMOUNT is a wired, full-function, wall-mount touchscreen remote designed to provide comprehensive control over your pool and spa system. It serves as a remote touchscreen terminal, establishing a direct wired connection to the OmniLogic pool automation controller. This allows for convenient monitoring and adjustment of various pool functions from an easily accessible location, typically mounted on an indoor wall or in a protected outdoor area. The intuitive user interface mirrors the functionality of the OmniLogic app, granting users complete control over their pool, spa, and other backyard features.
Installation
Installing the HLWALLMOUNT involves both wiring it to the OmniLogic controller and physically mounting it on a wall. Refer to the owner’s manual for detailed instructions and safety precautions.
Wiring to OmniLogic Controller
Connecting the HLWALLMOUNT to the OmniLogic controller requires careful attention to the wiring diagram provided in the manual. Ensure power is off before beginning the installation process. The HLWALLMOUNT wires directly into the OmniLogic system. This facilitates monitoring and controlling pool functions. Follow the specific instructions in the HLWALLMOUNT manual for proper wire connections. Incorrect wiring can lead to malfunction or damage to the system. Verify that all connections are secure. The proper wiring ensures reliable communication between the HLWALLMOUNT and the OmniLogic controller. Always consult the manual for detailed steps.
Mounting Location Considerations
Selecting the right mounting location for the HLWALLMOUNT is crucial for optimal usability and longevity. Choose an indoor location or protected outdoor area shielded from direct sunlight and extreme weather. Consider a location that provides easy access for all users. Refer to the HLWALLMOUNT manual for detailed guidelines on environmental conditions. Ensure the mounting surface is stable and capable of supporting the unit’s weight. Avoid areas prone to moisture or excessive temperature fluctuations. Consider proximity to the OmniLogic controller to minimize wiring length. The chosen location should be convenient for daily pool monitoring and control. Proper mounting ensures long-term performance.
Configuration
Upon initial startup, the OmniLogic system automatically detects and configures the HLWALLMOUNT. User input is typically not required for this process, streamlining the setup.
Automatic Detection by OmniLogic
The OmniLogic system is designed for seamless integration with the HLWALLMOUNT. When the HLWALLMOUNT is initially connected and the OmniLogic system starts, the wall mount should be automatically detected and configured by the system without requiring any user intervention. This automatic detection simplifies the setup process, ensuring a hassle-free experience for the user. To confirm successful detection, navigate to the device settings within the OmniLogic interface to verify that the HLWALLMOUNT is listed and properly configured. This feature streamlines the initial setup, allowing users to quickly begin controlling their pool and spa functions.
User Interface and Control
The HLWALLMOUNT offers an intuitive user interface designed for easy operation of pool, spa, and backyard features. The touchscreen display provides complete control, accessible day and night. The user interface mirrors the functionality of the OmniLogic app, allowing for consistent control. Through the HLWALLMOUNT, users can manage settings, schedule events, and monitor equipment status. The clear and responsive touchscreen ensures effortless navigation through the various menus and options. This interface allows users to manage pumps, lighting, heating, and sanitation, ensuring optimal control.
Troubleshooting
If the HLWALLMOUNT isn’t automatically detected upon initial startup, verify all connections to the OmniLogic controller. Consult the manual for detailed troubleshooting steps if problems persist.
Initial Startup Issues
When initially starting the OmniLogic system, the HLWALLMOUNT should automatically be discovered and configured without requiring user input. If the touchscreen remote is not detected, begin by verifying the physical connections between the HLWALLMOUNT and the OmniLogic controller. Ensure the wiring is correct and secure, consulting the HLWALLMOUNT manual for proper wiring diagrams and specifications.
If connections are confirmed, power cycle both the OmniLogic controller and the HLWALLMOUNT. This can sometimes resolve communication glitches. Check that the OmniLogic is running the latest firmware, as outdated firmware can cause compatibility issues. If problems persist, consult the troubleshooting section of the manual or contact Hayward support.
Compatibility
The HLWALLMOUNT is designed for use with Hayward OmniLogic automation systems; It’s also compatible with OmniPL and OmniHub, providing centralized control. Check documentation for specific version compatibility details.
