Here, you will enter which station sensors are
assigned to which moisture sensor.
When using moisture sensing a representative
station for each different climatic and plant material
zone on the controller is given a sensor and is
known as a Master station. Slave stations are
stations without sensors that are assigned to a
master station which share similar water
requirements. The choice of groups of stations
controlled by the same sensor is done at the
controller within the MOISTURE SENSOR
ASSIGNMENT screen.
Example:
Station: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10
Sensor: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10
becomes
Station: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10
Sensor: 01 02 03 04 03 03 07 03 09 10
Note:
In the example above station 03 is the Master
station (the station with the moisture sensor) and
stations 05, 06, and 08 are now slaves stations to
station 03 (Highlighted in the example).

Once all of the Moisture Sensors
have been set up properly, press
the MAIN MENU key to return to the
MAIN MENU screen (Figure 5.1).
Note: New settings will be available in the STATION
PROGRAMMING screen for each
station that is
using Moisture sensing and will have to be
programmed individually.
From the MAIN MENU screen:
