Ball Valve Control Module
If you have DC motors or electronically controlled
ball valves which require polarity reversal to turn in
the opposite direction, this module is applicable.
Ideal for water irrigation or industrial applications
which require valve and motor controls.
Important:
this module is only supported on F7 units
Turning the relay On / Off will set the opened /
closed state on the Valve Status.
Timeout for opening and closing are configurable in
the Web UI (value range: 1-600, 10 s by default).
If this module is used with a valve that cannot
provide open and closed status, the Valve Status
sensor can be set to offline.
