In.put was designed to ease wire insertion
(up to # 4 AWG) and connections. Tighter input
connection reduces heat generated
for increased component lifetime.

In.seal provides an extra level of protection
against water infiltration. Connectors and power
box are designed to be watertight so that no
water can be in direct contact with electrical
components (IPX5).

Features
The Y Series systems boast a long list of technical features. Each of them contributes to bringing the most advanced
solutions available to Y Series equipped spa owners:
In.stik is a pen drive with an in.link connector
very similar to a USB memory stick. It connects
to the spa pack and contains data to program or
configure its system. The system executes
the data upload automatically.
In.stik
automated software upload
All Yseries packs support the in.touch WiFi
interface, allowing you to use your favorite iOS
device to communicate with your spa.
In.touch
you're always in touch with your relaxation
The Y Series is only compatible with the low-
voltage family of in.link connectors, such as
those used by keypads and similar low-voltage
accessories.

Warning!
Beware the application of some products
commonly used against corrosion (such as
WD-40 family products) as they could damage
the power box, due to a negative chemical
reaction between some industrial oils and its
plastic enclosure. Any other materials which may
come in contact with the enclosure must be
carefully evaluated under end use conditions for
compatibility.
Important!
Please note that
countersunk screws
should not be used as
they can damage the
power box support.

Installing the in.k200
The keypad should be installed directly onto the spa (or very close to it) so that it is easily accessible to the user.
• To install the in.k200, drill two 1” (25 mm) diameter holes at 2 5/8” (67 mm) from center to center as illustrated.
• Cut out the material between the two holes (see illustration).
• Clean the installation surface and peel the adhesive backing from the keypad.
• Insert keypad and align it correctly, then ensure it is properly glued by gently pressing evenly on the entire surface.
If the keypad is equipped with an optional holder plate, remove the two wing nuts from the back of the keypad and
remove the mounting bracket.
Insert the keypad into the opening you have cut out. Put the mounting bracket and the wing nuts back on their
respective bolts and fix the keypad securely in place (see illustration below).
Note: It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that no obstructions (cables, piping, etc.) are
present below the deck at the drill hole location.
Note: If the installation location is not perfectly even (e.g. wood surface), make a silicone joint
between the installation surface and the back of the unit to ensure a proper seal around it.

Connecting the main keypad to the spa pack
The in.k200 comes with a 10' (3.048 m) cable and an in.link connector.
To connect the in.k200, first remove the cover (for in.ye 4 screws and for in.yt 6 screws), then insert the in.link
connector into the appropriate keypad connector (as illustrated). Route the cable through one of the molded strain
relief channels on the bottom right side of the spa pack (as illustrated). Don’t forget to replace the cover and all
screws (do not over tighten cover screws).
Note: always shut power down before connecting an accessory to the in.ye or in.yt.
