PA122 - WATER TEMPERATURE SENSOR KIT
The I-Wave Control System comes equipped 
with a Water Temperature Sensor. This 
sensor is needed to monitor and maintain 
both the pool and spa water temperature 
depending on the position of the diverter 
valves. It needs to be installed in order for 
the thermostat control to work. Power needs 
to be disconnected when connecting the 
temp sensor. Only an Intermatic Sensor 
will work with this controller.
 Follow the 
directions below to install and mount your 
water temperature sensor. 
Drill a 3/8” hole in the pipe between the 
filter pump and filter and install the Water 
Temperature Sensor with hose clamp (not 
provided). Ensure the O-ring is in place.
Run the wire to the Control Center, 
through the low voltage raceway. Connect both wires to the Panel-Mounted Receiver. (See 
Figure 1-1.)

Setting Pool and Spa Temperatures
If connected and linked, the Hand-Held Remote controls the independent water temperatures of 
both the pool and spa. 
View the current temperature on the right side of the Hand-Held 
Remote Screen under the word SET. 
P = current pool water set temperature
S = current spa water set temperature
Press and release the <P/S> button if necessary to change the system 
between Pool and Spa mode. Depending on which mode is selected, the word POOL (lower 
left) or SPA (lower right) appears on the screen
Press the <UP> or <DOWN> arrow buttons to raise or lower the setting to the desired 
temperature. You can hold the button down and the value will automatically change.
Release the arrow button when the setting reaches the temperature you want. After a few 
seconds, the display returns to the current temperature of the pool or spa, depending on 
which mode you select.

ATTENTION:
 
If the Intermatic panel in which you are installing this Water Temperature Sensor Kit is not  
 
 equipped with a low voltage compartment raceway, then you will need to order and install the  
 
Intermatic Class 2 Wiring Isolation Kit. The part number to order this is 156PA12976A. NEC,  
 
UL & CSA require a double barrier of insulation between high and low voltage wiring when  
 
both are present in the same compartment. The Class 2 Wiring Isolation Kit satisfies that 
 
requirement. If you have the newest Intermatic Control panel with the low voltage raceway,  
 
then it is not necessary for you to install the Class 2 Wiring Isolation Kit. Please follow the 
 
below instructions carefully and, as with all accessory kits, remember to remove power  before  
 
you begin installation.
