GalStar
Instruction 1.0
General:
The Gal-Star controller can be connected to a PC thus enabling remote control
operation via direct connection, long distance cable connection, long distance radio connection
and the most advanced cellular connection. The communication between the PC and the Gal-
Star controller is carried out using the same platform (center program) as the Galileo. For Center
software installation please refer to the “Galcon PC Software” manual. Communication with
the Gal-Star requires the Center version 08HL or higher. In addition the Gal-Star application
software version 1.11 or higher must be installed. In this chapter we will show how to setup an
irrigation program including fertigation. For an explanation of all other screens please refer to the
explanations described in the previous chapter in operation by the controller keyboard.
The main screen is designed to use the “My Gal-Star” program which is similar to the Galileo
Open Field’s “My Field” program.
