General Information
The Remote is easily operated by a selector and five buttons. You can save programs in home files
(up to 3 programs), or send the programs directly to a controller. Programs that were sent to the
controller and received are saved in the memory of the remote according to the controller's code
(up to 50 controllers).
By using the remote you can transfer programs from home files to controllers, modify programs
located in the controller and create new programs.
NOTE: The irrigation is set in the remote only and not in the controller itself.
The controller receives the programs and operates the valves. To transmit programs to the
controllers, ascertain that the remote is located within the reception range of the controller (up to
300' line of sight). When the transmission is completed successfully, the message Send Successful
is displayed on the screen, confirming reception of the program.
The Remote Offers Two Types of Irrigation Programs
1. Irrigation programs for a group of valves
2. An irrigation program for an individual valve
Additional Options
Fertilizing program for each valve
An Irrigation Program for a Group of Valves (see section 5.1, pg. 7)
You can program three programs:A, B and C.
For each program, select the irrigation days on which the valves will operate. Set a start time for the
first valve only and define the irrigation duration for each valve separately. The valves open in
sequence, according to their serial number on the display.When the first valve shuts off the second
valve opens, etc. Only one valve operates at any given moment.When setting programs (A, B, C)
with overlapping irrigation times, program A starts first and program B starts only after program A
ends. Program C opens after program B ends.
When no fertilization program is set, two valves can open simultaneously.
Independent I Program for an Individual Valve (see section 6.0, pg.9)
Use this method to define an individual program for each valve. Select the desired valve first and
then proceed to define the irrigation program: set watering duration, irrigation days or irrigation
cycles and the start time of that valve.
General Description

fertilizing %.
• You may use or to move among the programs and the individual valves continuously.You
cannot open individual valves which are assigned to a program.
NOTE: Manual operation or any change in the program stops the operation of valves which
are open at that time.
