Installing Nodes, Looms and GPS Units
The nodes and cable looms have been cut to length, making it imperative that they are installed in the correct
order. Refer to the sprinkler chart for the node location and cable length. All node boxes should be mounted to the
same side of the irrigation span pipes so there is less interference with the wireless communications.
The correct node order is:
Pivot Point ► Node 1 ► Node 2 ► Node 3 ► etc.
The valve order is:
Pivot Point ► 1A ► 1B ► 1C► 1D► 2A► 2B► 2C► 2D► etc.
Note: The node enclosures are mounted on the same outlet as Valve B for each set of valves.
The nodes are set up to be connected via power cable in a “daisy chain” fashion. The power line from node 1 con-
nected to node 2; another power line connects node 2 to node 3 and so on, until reaching the 24V power supply at
the center of the system.
