Operating MicroBrite Lights Using a Wall Switch
The MicroBrite light can be manually controlled using a standard wall-mount light switch.
Multiple MicroBrite lights can be connected via a junction box and a 12 VAC
isolation transformer to a single switch so that all lights can be switched on and off
together. For wiring diagram, see page 14.
Pentair Color LED lights can be controlled by Pentair Automation Systems
& Light Controllers. Contact your pool dealer for more information.
