VINCELdUB Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 AN y news on the new intellicenter driver? I have a customer with an omnilogic driver but he is not happy with its functionality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Africa C4 user Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Good question... I believe intellicenter has now been launched (November) although I can't find it on Pentairs site but can find YouTube' videos of it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
istreich Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 It looks like all those new products are officially released in March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedriverslab Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 They have a few test units out in the market. The driver is now with C4 for certification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they announced something called the IntelliConnect but that seems like a very basic control unit. Not sure if that will work with an existing load center like EasyTouch or IntelliTouch.

weejo11 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Hoping the Intellicenter will still be released within this year. Crossing my finger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SY3 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 From what I've seen in the YouTube video, the Intellicenter looks like an upgraded control unit. Meaning, you'll have to replace your entire unit. The current i9 kit runs about $1500 so not sure the new Intellicenter is going to be worth it for those that already have an Easytouch system. Not sure why pool automation is so difficult and expensive. I already have the ScreenLogic 2 system that allows me to control everything from my mobile device as well as my PC. Would be NICE to integrate I won't be pay that much if that's what it will cost. The Pentair Alexa skill is horrible and never works so I've given up on that as well.

Hi everyone, Spoke with Pentair and the IntelliCenter will be out later this month. Also to address your point of cost. The new IntelliCenter will actually end up being cheaper as the integration driver is FREE. Furthermore, there are no extra boards/parts needed for the integration. The IntelliCenter is light years ahead of the current lineup with added features/functions and ease of use thanks to the all-new touchscreen.

koepkesd@gmail.com Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I have a Hayward Omnilogic and the integration with C4 is very basic (driver is readily available from C4). The Omnilogic has a great native application for controlling the various pool features and setting timers. Its IP control and you can access via a browser as well or anywhere via mobile device at no fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong but if we already have the EasyTouch control unit with ScreenLogic control, wouldn't that need to be updated to the IntelliCenter? That would be the cost I was referring to. I understand it will be less expensive than upgrading to the IntelliTouch i9 + iLink module but none the less a cost. I can't image the IntelliCenter costing less than $1500. So for those with existing or recently installed equipment, Control4 integration might not be that easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laurahijar Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Hello . . . I have a client telling me he's heard of a new interface that is expected to be in the $500 price point due out this fall. I can't believe the Intellicenter would be so inexpensive . . . does anyone know about price? I think this client believe they will be able to control their pump through their phone without a control panel, which I've tried to explain isn't possible . . .but does anyone know something I don't? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Africa C4 user Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 I see that IntelliCenter is finally out. I’m waiting for a quote. I must say the manual does not look much different from the Intellitouch just better (more modern) graphics and more feature circuits (macros). Presumably functionality is in fact better and integration better. Time will tell. @thedriverslab is the driver now available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grant0830 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Let us know what you find out on InetlliCenter as we are just starting our pool build. Looks like this would be the way to go over the basic easytouch2 panel. Anyone have cost yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SY3 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I reached out to my Pentair dealer today and he's following up with his distributor. Said not all the parts are available yet since I want to upgrade my existing EasyTouch 4P system. There are upgrade kits listed on their user guide but not sure on pricing information yet. When I find out, will report back. On 8/18/2018 at 2:18 AM, laurahijar said: Hello . . .

Thanks! Not sure where they heard that from but be interested to see what the price point is for the upgrade kits. Seems that Pentair has thought about all the existing customers so hopefully it's in that ballpark price point. Another dealer reported cost around $1950 for a new install but not sure what that included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SY3 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Heard back from my Pentair dealer late yesterday and the IntelliCenter upgrade parts are not available yet. He spoke directly with the automation rep at Pentair. The IntelliCenter is available now but as an entire unit ($2000 price point). The upgrade pieces will be available in early Spring 2019. Since the upgrade parts aren't in the ordering system yet, no way to estimate prices. So for those building a new pool, the IntelliCenter is the way to go. Hopefully there will be a Control4 driver available soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Is that $2000 just to add automation capabilities to your pool system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grant0830 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Just spoke to my pool builder, he has a Intellicenter panel coming for our build! Keep us in the loop if a driver gets developed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedriverslab Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Guys the driver is available. We are waiting on C4 to finish certification, however, if anyone has the system please let us know and we will provide you with the driver.

SY3 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Is that $2000 just to add automation capabilities to your pool system?That’s the cost of adding a whole new control unit. It’s basically the same cost as the other load centers when building a new pool. I’m waiting to see how much the upgrade kit costs but those won’t be available until Spring 2019.
