Ex. 3 Ex. 4 Position the opposite end of the discharge tubing where you intend to add the treatment into the water feature. Treatment can be dispensed directly into the pond or fountain or into a skimmer or pump vault (Ex. 10). NOTE: Position discharge tubing above water level. Attach the transformer to the dosing system power cord using the quick-connect fitting at the end of the cable (Ex. 11). NOTE: The unit can also be powered by an existing 12V outdoor transformer. Each Smart Controller uses 6 watts. Directly into Skimmer or Waterfall Vault NOTE: Inlet and outlet tubing can be determined by referencing the indicators on the pump cartridge (Ex. 5). Connect the inlet tubing to the barb at the top of the intake assembly (Ex. 6). Then connect the low-treatment power cable to the control panel (Ex. 7). Ex. 10 Ex. 11 Ex. 5 Plug the transformer into a GFCI-rated receptacle. NOTE: the unit may run once it receives power. If desired, the XT system allows you to add multiple treatments simultaneously using a Controller Add-On Kit

(Item #40042). This will allow you to add two half gallon treatments simultaneously (i.e. Maintain and Clear). Ex. 6 Ex. 7 4 US (866) 877-6637 | CAN (866) 766-3426 | aquascapeinc.com The Controller Add-on Kit includes the control panel, intake assembly, and tubing.

PRIMING PROCEDURE When first setting up the system or when adding a new water treatment bottle, the system should be primed to push the treatment through the output tubing. The priming process can be completed in the Smart Control App or manually. To manually enter the priming mode, hold the x2 button for 3 seconds until blue light above the x2 button begins to flash. The priming mode will automatically turn off after approximately three minutes, returning to normal operation. The priming mode can be exited at any time by pressing the x2 button when the treatment begins to discharge at the end of the tubing. LOW-TREATMENT ALERT The system is equipped with a convenient low-treatment alert which uses an electromagnetic switch on the intake assembly to notify you when a treatment bottle is 90%

empty, ensuring you can replace the treatment before it runs out. When 90% empty, the Low-Treatment Alert LED on the control panel will illuminate (Ex. 18). Pair the control panel to the Aquascape Smart Control App to receive low-treatment alerts on your smartphone or tablet (Ex. 19).

NOTE: A soft pipe cleaner, available at most hobby stores, can be used to clean the tubing. The pump cartridge, located on the underside of the control panel, is a consumable part that may wear over time, reducing the accuracy of the system. It is recommended to replace the pump cartridge once each year (Item #44041) (Ex. 20). Do not operate at temperatures below 40F / 4C as doing so will void the warranty. Ex. 20 PLEASE NOTE: Your XT System and liquid water treatments are not designed to be operated during freezing temperatures. The unit is equipped with an internal protection thermostat that will shut off the dosing pump at temperatures below 40F / 4C. Remove the control panel, treatment, and intake assembly during winter freezing temperatures and store in a frost-free location Troubleshooting The pump does not seem to be pumping the liquid treatment from the bottle into my feature. Make sure the unit is getting power. Make sure the inner tubing and discharge tubing are properly connected and not kinked. Inspect and clean all tubing of water treatment residue using a pipe cleaner Make sure the system is primed. To enter the priming mode, hold the x2 dosing button for 3 seconds (this may take several minutes). Refer to page 5 for more information. With priming mode engaged, listen closely, as you should be able to hear the pump turning if its working correctly. If the pump is not turning when in priming mode, you may need to replace the control panel. If problems persist, it may be time to replace the pump cartridge. Pump does not seem to be pumping accurately. Replace the pump cartridge as explained in General Maintenance (Ex. 20). There is no power reaching the unit. Make sure the ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is not tripped. Check that the transformer is plugged in. Try replacing the transformer; please note that the Aquascape Automatic Dosing System uses a 12V low voltage outdoor rated transformer. Device won't pair. Make sure the outlet is receiving power. Make sure the network name and password are typed in correctly. Make sure you have adequate wireless coverage to connect the device. Reset the device to factory default by pressing and holding the + and - button for 5 seconds within 1 minute of connecting the controller to power then release when the LCD screen shows 88.
