Verify that the:
l
Field Transmitter and the Control Module are connected properly
·
l
Field Transmitter’s and the Control Module’s optical connectors are clean
(wipe the connectors with a damp cloth)
l
Field Transmitter and the Control Module have a fully charged 9-volt alkaline
battery
Press and then transmit the programming information again.
5. Disconnect the Field Transmitter from the Control Module.
Reviewing Control Module programs
When you want to verify the program data of a Control Module:
1. Plug the Field Transmitter’s optical connector onto the Control Module’s optical
con-
nector.
2. If the Field Transmitter’s display is blank, press .
3. Press on the Field Transmitter to receive (upload) the program data stored in
the Control Module. You can now review all of the Control Module program data ex
cept the current time of day stored in the Control Module.
Note:
The Field Transmitter does not receive the current time from the Control
Module because there may be a difference in the current time between the two
devices. However, when you transmit (download) a program to a Control Mod-
ule, the Field Transmitter synchronizes the Control Module’s current time
with the Field Transmitter’s current time.
4. To modify the program data stored in the Control Module, enter the desired modifi-
cations into the Field Transmitter, then press to transmit (download) the pro-
gram to the Control Module.
The icon will appear on the screen for two seconds. When the icon disappears
from the display, the program data has been successfully transmitted.
Note:
Press even if you have not made any changes to the programming data.
This will synchronize the time between the two devices.
On-off Mode/System Override
The Field Transmitter’s On-off function allows you to completely suspend and override
all currently set programming in the Control Module, without changing or losing this
programming for future use.
The Control Module’s default mode is always ON, allowing programmed watering to
take place. You can prevent watering, however, by activating the On-off Mode,
thereby switching the Control Module’s default mode to OFF.
