WEATHER STATION
• Controller function: Define whether this controller is connected to a weather station directly or through the
network.
Local: A weather station is connected to this controller; its data is used locally only and should not be
passed or received through the network.
Slave: This controller receives weather station data through the network; the data is collected by
another NMC-Junior Pro (or NMC-64 Climate), which is connected directly to a weather station defined
as Master. Sensors connected directly to a slave controller will be used by it and will have a higher
priority than those transmitted by the master.
OPERATION MODE
• Automatic return to RO mode: Define if the controller will return automatically back to the Read Only mode
after a certain period of time.
• Return Period to Read Only mode: Set the amount of time for the controller to return automatically to the
Read Only mode (mm:ss).
This parameter is only relevant if the Automatic return to RO mode parameter is defined as YES
COMMUNICATION
• Controller Number: Select the controller number for communication. The controller number in the controller
and in the PC should match in order for the communication to work. Each controller in the network must have
a unique number.
WATER SOURCE
• Flow Rate – Start From: Select whether the flow rate calculation in an irrigation will begin either with the
value Zero (which means that the flow rate will increase according to pulses received), or a Nominal value
calculated using all the active valves in the irrigation. The calculation method is important primarily for dosing
and EC/pH control. When using a controller which operates with relatively slow pulses, it is recommended to
choose the Nominal flow rate option due to inaccurate flow calculation in the first stage of the irrigation. When
operating with slow pulses and starting with a Zero value, it will take a long time for the controller to reach its'
actual flow rate value. When operating by fast pulses, choose either Zero or Nominal.
• Calculated Flow Delay: This parameter is relevant only when Nominal is being selected in the previous
parameter. This parameter defines the time the controller uses its' nominal flow rate value before switching to
the calculated one. In this period LOW FLOW and HIGH FLOW alarms will not be detected.
To enable this parameter, set the Water Meter to Water Source. Refer to Water Meter, page 41.
11.3 Temperature Calibration
This menu enables calibrating temperature sensors. Use the Left/right arrow keys to increase/decrease the values.
Netafim recommends calibrating the temperature sensors using a reference sensor.
11.4 Humidity Calibration
This menu enables calibrating humidity sensors. Use the Left/right arrow keys to increase/decrease the values
Netafim recommends calibrating the humidity sensors using a reference sensor.
