Gecko's keypad extension system in.xtend
Gecko's in.xtend allows you to install your keypad up to 100 meters from your control system (depending on topside used). It uses an CAT5 cable and two communication boxes (a transmitter and a receiver) to connect your control system to your keypad without being limited by distance. The in.xtend system is ideal for swim spas and inground spas.
The in.xtend is compatible with Gecko's in.xe, in.xm and in.xm2, in.yj-3, in.ye-5 and in.yt-7 control systems (may require software revisions).
How it works
The two communication boxes (one plugged into the control system, the other near the keypad) are connected by the CAT5 cable (Max length: up to 100m), allowing the signals from the keypad to be sent to the spa control with out loosing signal strength.
Plugs and connections
The in.xtend is connects via its in.link plug to the spa pack through its orange “C” connector. The compatible keypad with an in.link plug is connected to the in.xtend through the orange “C” enclosure keying of the in.xtend.
