Multiple log and water usage reports are generated automatically to track system operation and water savings
Water Management Features
Cross satellite schedule operation; 999 separate schedules per CCU provides precision watering of areas and microclimates
ET Checkbook™ manages Evapotranspiration (ET) and automatically adjusts Satellite Controller station run-time or day cycle intervals to match the landscapes water requirements
FloManager™ manages the total flow demand placed on the water source(s), optimizing both the available water and watering window
FloWatch™ monitors flow sensors at each water source, records flow, and automatically reacts to problem flows by shutting down the affected portion of the system (individual valve or mainline)
RainWatch™ monitors rain counting sensors, records rainfall, and automatically reacts to rainfall by interrupting irrigation, waiting to see how much rain has fallen, and determines if the irrigation should be resumed or cancelled
Operational Features
Communication Control Engine automatically sends updated programming to sites before watering begins and retrieves logs after irrigation is completed; manual operation can be performed at any time
Start day cycles: Custom (day of the week), Odd/Even, Odd31, or Cyclical and include Event Day Off Calendar scheduling
Station run-times programmable from 1 minute to 16 hours
