Valve Actuators

[JeremyJL]

I recently had to partially drain my spa to do some work, and noticed a problem with my valve actuators. They are JVA 2444, and hooked up to an aqualink RS system. There are 4 settings for the valve actuators: Pool Mode, Spa Mode, Spa Drain, and Spa Fill. Below is the current valve positions with each setting.

Pool Mode:

Intake: Pool drains/skimmers

Return: 70% pool and 30% Spa (for spillover effect)

Spa Mode:

Intake: Spa Drains

Return: Spa Jets

Spa Fill:

Intake: Spa Drains

Return: Pool

Spa Drain:

Intake: Pool drains/skimmers

Return: 70% pool and 30% Spa (for spillover effect)

As you can see, the pool mode and spa mode are correct, but the spa fill/drain are backwards. I flipped the toggle switch on the bottom of both of the actuators and the it corrected the spa fill/drain positions, but then switched the order for the Pool/Spa Mode. I read through the manual and tried to trouble shoot it myself, but came up with no solution.

Any suggestions/Solutions?

Thanks

Follow the valve actuator wire from the actuator back to the PCB. Switch the two actuator plugs(where they plug into the board). What you describe sounds like the two actuators got crossed when they were plugged in.

Thanks Pool Clown! The valves are working correctly now.
