PROGRAMMING THE FLOW-CLIK INTERFACE BOX.................................
Note: If pressure fluctuations at the point of
connection in excess of 10 psi are expected,
it is recommended that a pressure regulator
be installed on the mainline or at the master
valve.
Proper System Maintenance and Operation
It is important that your irrigation system be maintained
and is functioning properly for optimum performance.
Check your irrigation system for any broken components
or leaks also, make sure that all sprinklers are operating
within the pressure ranges recommended by the manufac-
turer.
SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS (continued).....................................................
Calibrating the Flow-Clik to the Irrigation System
Note: Before calibrating the Flow-Clik to your
system, it is very important that the irrigation
system be in good working condition. Irriga-
tion system leaks, broken sprinklers, zones
operating outside specified pressure ranges,
will have a negative effect on the performance
of the Flow-Clik.
Using the Flow-Clik’s Interface Box, the sensor is calibrated
by pressing the Calibrate button while the highest flow
zone is operating. While the system is “learning” the flow,
the System Status Indicator light will be yellow. After a 10
second period of “learning” it will begin to monitor system
flow.
If you already know the highest flow zone within the
system:
1. Turn the Startup Delay dial to the 0 second position.
2. Turn the Interrupt Period dial to the Sensor Bypass/
Calibrate position.
3. Manually activate the zone with the highest flow.
4. While the zone is operating, press and hold the Cali-
brate button on the Interface Box. The System Status
Indicator light will change to yellow during the calibra-
