Compatibility wth Balboa GS500Z and CalSpas 407T #85

Open smitterer opened 5 months ago

Hi!

Thanks for creating this project.

We have a Balboa GS500Z connected to a CalSpas 407T panel.

The PCB has RJ connectors and one 8-pin Molex. The documentation shows the pcb: https://www.balboawatergroup.com/getdoc.cfm?id=2150

Any idea if this project would work, either via RJ or Molex?

Thanks!

EDIT: Need to check the serial number again. According to https://www.hottubdiy.co.uk/circuit-board.html the panel is not identified via the print on the lower left corner but via a sticker.

Ok so the specific version of the GS500Z is a CS6215R1A which is some version for Cal Spas

Any idea if that would work, especially by using a an elfin ew-11?

Thanks

My guess is no, based on #14 and #57.

Just checked again (just received it, bought it used and oversaw that) and there is only the RJ connector, see: https://photos.app.goo.gl/NoeShParJBgJhQFB9 https://photos.app.goo.gl/DKkjtgdfRPYoWXpB6
