C – USING THE FIELD TRANSMITTER via INFRARED (I.R.) CONNECTION
The field transmitter is able to communicate via infrared with all types of old or new generation TBOS™ control modules.
Certain exclusive functions are only accessible when the field transmitter is connected to a TBOS-II™ IR control module, i.e.:
- Water budget,
- Assignment of a station to several programs, each with a different time,
- Station test,
- 1 to 31 day cyclical irrigation schedules (1 to 6 days for the TBOS™ model),
- Customisation of TBOS-II™ module and its stations,
- Saving of program in the control module,
The field transmitter can also add the “Rain Delay“ function to all TBOS™ control modules.
It has 6 memory storage areas that can store 6 different programs: 3 are dedicated to old model TBOS™ modules
and the 3 others to the TBOS-II™ modules. It also allows the deletion of the programs contained in any TBOS™
module (deletion of one or all programs, TBOS™ module reset).
1. Programming the TBOS-II™ field transmitter
Press any key to turn on the field transmitter and
display the welcome menu.
Press the OK key, select “TBOS IR infrared“ by means
of the key and confirm by pressing OK in order to
read the program data contained in your TBOS™
field transmitter.
The reading of program data can
take between 2 and 12 seconds according to the
TBOS™ module version (old or new).
The first infrared welcome screen indicates the
status of the various external items (TBOS™ module
sensor or battery), ON/OFF state, of the Water budget
or the watering operation in progress (TBOS-II™ only).
Before configuring the functions, connect the infrared cord supplied with your product.
