Remarks

Water conditions

Prevent damage to your pool lamps and wires due to unstable water conditions. Your local government may have enacted guidelines for your pool water conditions to apply by. If not we strongly advise the following parameter specifications to be applied:

pH level 6,8 – 7,6
Free Chlorine max. 3ppm
Combined chlorine max. 1 ppm
Water temperature max +40°C and lamps need to be kept out of ice zones

Always adhere to the instructions provided by your chemical brand/supplier for the correct use and application of pool chemicals.

Salt water pools, or pools fitted with a salt water chlorine generator contain salt in the pool water. Salt is a corrosive material. Overdosage and/or consistent levels of salt increase the possibility of deterioration of your pool lamps and cables. As a rule of thumb, a concentration of 35gr/l salt can be accepted when pH values are between 7,2-7,4. In any case, we urge proper use, care and maintenance of your installation, in order to minimize the effect of corrosion and deterioration.

Please be aware that pool lamps and cables with defects caused due to abnormalities in the water condition are not covered by our factory warranty.

Installation/maintenance

The luminaire is maintenance free
If the luminaire needs to be replaced, it needs to be completely removed from the water

 If the external flexible cable or cord of this luminaire is damaged, it shall be exclusively replaced by the manufacturer or his service agent or a similar qualified person in order to avoid hazard.

Vision Spectra Pool lamps must be completely submerged into water during operation. Fixing the lamps with adhesives or silicone kit into a niche is not allowed Not following these instructions, will void warranty.

Wiring instructions

Setup 1

For new installations

Each lamp is connected to the transformer by a separate cable

2m cable included in lamp package
Separate cable ( not included )

 Always use a toroïdal transformer

SELECT CABLE SECTION & MAXIMUM LENGTH

STABLE OPERATION OF THE POOL LIGHTS IS ONLY GUARANTEED WHEN THE INSTALLED CABLE CROSS SECTION MATCHES OR EXCEEDS THE ADVISED VALUES IN THE ABOVE TABLE

The transformer VA rating must be greater or equal to the sum of VA ratings of all connected lamps.
These cable lenghts are calculated with worst case voltage drops in the electrical wiring.

Setup 2

For existing or other installations

All lamps are connected to the transformer via 1 cable

2m cable included in lamp package
Separate cable ( not included )

 Always use a toroïdal transformer

SELECT CABLE SECTION & MAXIMUM LENGTH

STABLE OPERATION OF THE POOL LIGHTS IS ONLY GUARANTEED WHEN THE INSTALLED CABLE CROSS SECTION MATCHES OR EXCEEDS THE ADVISED VALUES IN THE ABOVE TABLE

Retrofit in PAR56 niche (only Vision Spectra 170mm)

Synchronizing & color changing

(for RGB and TW lamps only)

Manual synchronization

1. Switch ON the 12 VAC line voltage and make sure that all lamps light up.
2. Switch OFF the 12 VAC line voltage and wait for at least 20 sec (max 60 sec)
3. Switch ON and switch OFF (max 3 sec ON and max 3 sec OFF)
4. Switch ON and switch OFF (max 3 sec ON and max 3 sec OFF)
5. Switch ON
6. The lamps should now all be on color program 6: Blue

TW lamps: the lamps will all flicker after 15 seconds on color program 6. You can now choose to lock the lamp on a desired color program by switching off/on within the next 5 seconds. After 5 seconds the flickering will stop and the lamp is locked. See next page for details.
If you did not select a color when flickering, the lamps will stop flickering after 5 seconds and the lamp will be unlocked.

Changing colors

Quickly turn the lamps OFF and back ON
The lamp will jump to the next color program

Memorizing the actual color

Turn the lamp OFF for MINIMUM 20 seconds
The last chosen color has now been memorized

Color Locking

(only for TW lamps)

If desired, TW lamps can be “locked” on a color program of choice. This means the lamp will only light up in that specific color, and it is no longer possible to change the color program of the lamp.
This process can be reversed anytime by “unlocking” the color program. All color programs will then be available again, and can be changed at any time.

Locking/Unlocking procedure

Locking the color of a lamp starts with a synchronisation procedure:

1. Switch ON the 12 VAC line voltage
2. Switch OFF the 12 VAC line voltage and wait for at least 20 sec (max 60 sec)
3. Switch ON and switch OFF (max 3 sec ON and max 3 sec OFF)
4. Switch ON and switch OFF (max 3 sec ON and max 3 sec OFF)
5. Switch ON
6. Wait for about 15 seconds. The lamp(s) will now flicker
   LOCKING:
   • during the flickering of the lamp, select the desired color program by switching (within 5 seconds) the lamps OFF and ON quickly.
   • When the right color is selected, then wait 5 seconds, until the flickering stops
   • The lamp is now locked on the chosen color program
     UNLOCKING:
   • When the lamps flicker, then do nothing for 5 seconds.
   • The flickering will stop, and it is again possible to change the color program of the lamps.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM/SOLUTION

The pool light is flickering

1. Switch the lamps ON and select Cold white color program
2. Remove the lamp from the water, unscrew the fix nut, pull back the gasket and the black cable jacket, so you can reach the brass contacts inside the connector block (do not remove the connector block)
3. Measure the voltage at the lamp terminals (while the lamp is still ON)
4. The voltage at the lamp should be at least 10VAC 50Hz. If the measured line voltage is below 10VAC:
   A. Check the output voltage at the transformator terminals. This voltage should be between 12VAC and 14VAC. Verify that the used transformator VA rating is sufficient for powering all connected lamps
   B. If the transformator output voltage is ok, then install a thicker cable between the transformator and the lamp. (wiring instructions p. 10-13)

In case of TW lamps: make sure the lamp is not in color locking mode

Several pool lights in the pool show different color programs

Make sure that all lamps are connected to the same 12VAC power line. Execute the synchronization as explained on p.16
