4 . 7 . Program Lockout Sensor
(This option is not included in model DC1S–6051 WP)
An advanced feature of the Irrigation Controller enables irrigation
monitoring using a lockout sensor. The lockout sensor contacts remained
closed as long as the pre-defined conditions do not exist. For example, if a
rain sensor is connected to the irrigation controller, irrigation takes place
as long as the sensor remains dry. If rain falls, the sensor prevents all valve
openings.
Each individual valve can be operated in conjunction with the sensor. To
associate the sensor to a particular valve(s), select the desired valve(s) and
activate the sensor (see the explanation below).
