system. Use it to choose from command based or schedule-based
operations, making irrigation adjustments a snap. Either way,
The FREEDOM™ System puts you in control of your irrigation
management system wherever you are.

The FREEDOM System provides direct access to your central
control system. It can access command-based functions like:
Turn On

Customized schedule-based functions
You have control, from individual stations up to the total
system, from any location on the golf course. You can also
program the FREEDOM handheld to provide access to other radios
used on your course.
Superior Control
Rain Bird central control systems are the standard for golf
course irrigation management. With your system’s schedule-based
capabilities, you will never be without control from the field.
The patented Flo-Manager® logic balances system hydraulics,
and the Cycle + Soak™ feature monitors station run times
to eliminate runoff. The FREEDOM System gives you access to
these features, as well as the system’s unmatched activity
logging to deliver true system performance reporting. Rain
