The battery must be exchanged in time to prevent the Water Computer failing due to a low battery when you are away for longer periods of time. Make sure that the time the battery has been in operation and the time you are planning to be away does not add up to more than a year.
Setting up
Warning! The Water Computer must not be used indoors.
v Only use the Water Computer outdoors.
The Water Computer may only be set up vertically with the sleeve nut to the top to prevent water penetrating into the battery compartment.
The minimum water output to ensure that the Water Computer functions correctly is
20 - 30 l/h.
For example, at least 10 x 2-litre Drip Heads are required to control the Micro-Drip-System.
At high temperatures (over 60 °C at the display) the LCD display may extinguish. This
does not affect the program in any way. When the computer cools down the LCD display illuminates again.
The max. temperature for the water flow is
40 °C.
v Only use clear fresh water.
The minimum operating pressure is 0,5 bar, the maximum operating pressure is 12 bar.
Avoid tensile strain.
vDo not pull the hose connected to the Water Computer.
Programming
vProgram the Water Computer with the tap turned off.
In this way you can avoid getting wet when trying out the manual On / Off function (man. On/Off). You can remove the control unit from the housing to program the Water Computer.
