11.B.2 Flow Checking
Flow checking allows you to have the controller
compare the flow of each station during irrigation to
the learned expected flow and alert you of any
problems.
Note:
You must have a flow meter turned on in the
controller, or in the chain / system.
Note:
This setting will have to be adjusted at the
Master Controller (The controller with the letter “A”
as the right most character in its communications
address). Once set, all of the controllers in the chain
will conform to this setting.
From the FLOW METER, MASTER VALVE & PUMP
