georgetv Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 How can I adapt my cover star pool cover open/close switch to C4. The switch is outside. Covered. I also want a sensor to show if pool is open or closed. When it rains, we need to open it. So automating this process would be ideal.

cshepard Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Sounds like a bad idea to have the ability to open/close a pool cover remotely. Safety issue. Neo1738 and brantlmcdonald 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brantlmcdonald Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 That switch by code is supposed to be installed in a way the pool remains in sight. I wouldn’t connect a pool cover to any remote controlling system. It’s not a risk worth taking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekki70 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 the only thing i would do is just do a sensor to tell me if the pool cover was open or closed, but in now way would i program it to open or close remotely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgetv Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 Thanks all. I agree. No remote control. But sensor to alert me if open or closed is a good one. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
