CONNECTING YOUR SOLENOID
• Standard 24VAC Solenoids
• Simply strip wire jacket back approximately ¼” from end of both wires,
(if not already done by manufacturer).
• e controller powers AC solenoids (common solenoids used for lawn irrigation) ere is no
hot or neutral wire. Tie one wire from all the solenoids together and insert wire into #1 slot of
solenoid plug (provided by Phytotronics) and the other wires into the #2 through #7 slots and
tighten down rmly, BY HAND, with supplied Phytotronics screwdriver.
• 3 Wire 24VAC Solenoids
• Attach the 2 power wires just like a 2 wire solenoid into solenoid plug.
• e 3rd wire is a ground wire. (usually green or green with a yellow stripe)
ground this wire properly with all local, state, and national codes.
• 120VAC solenoids will not work directly with your
Nova.
• You must use some kind of 24VAC interface between your
Nova and 120VAC solenoid. i.e. a 24VAC relay.
NOTE: Any attempt to bypass the 24VAC transformer to power this unit directly from a 120VAC
power source will damage the controller’s circuitry and render it unt for use. Such action will also
void the Phytotronics warranty!
NOTE: Maximum controller output is 1 Amp at one time. If output is exceded, CR ERR will appear
on the display. Turn the unit o, x the condition and turn back on. is should clear the error.
