WVP INSTALLATION
Installing the Battery
The WVP is powered by a standard 9-volt
alkaline battery. Under normal conditions the
battery should provide at least one full year of
service.
NOTE: The WVP has non-volatile memory which
allows for the battery to be removed without
losing any program information.
To install the battery (Figure 5):
1. Unscrew the battery cap on the bottom
of the handle to gain access to the battery
compartment.
2. Attach the battery
to the battery clip
and slide the battery
into the battery
compartment with the
connectors toward
the inside of the
WVP handle.
3. Reinstall the battery
cap.
The WVP can now be used to program
your controller.
WVP Display
Before you begin programming the WVP, take
some time to learn about the features available
and how program information is created. The
large LCD display on the WVP is split into
two areas: Programming and Communication.
The upper portion of the LCD display is used
for creating or changing program related
information. The lower portion of the display
is used to establish radio contact with WVC
controllers, send/retrieve program information,
conduct manual watering and establish unique
addresses for each controller.
Programming Mode
Communication Mode
While in the programming mode,
pressing the button will step through
the programming modes of operation in the
following order: 1) Current Time/Date, 2) Set
Time/Date, 3) Set Watering Start Times, 4)
Set Run Times, 5) Set Water Days, and 6) Off
Mode.
When creating or changing program
information, the flashing portion of the
display can be changed by pressing the or
buttons. To change something that is not
flashing, press the or buttons until the
desired field is flashing.
The Transmit/Receive button on the handle
of the WVP is used for navigating to and from
the communication function on the display,
initiating communication with a WVC, setting
the WVC unique identification code, and
transmitting/receiving data with a WVC. If
the Transmit/Receive button is pressed at any
time during one of the programming modes
mentioned above, then the communication
mode will be displayed.
After one minute of inactivity the WVP
display will go blank to conserve battery
power. Press any button to reactivate the
display.
