2.1.3 Diagnostic and Fault Detection
•
Programmable audible alarm. When enabled this alarm will “chirp” once every six seconds
for either an electrical field wire fault or any flow fault condition. The alarm will continue
until reset by the user.
•
Automatic field wire fault detection enables the controller to sense a short in the field wire
and instantly turn off that station. The display will report the fault condition any time a field
wire fault occurs. Additionally an audible alarm will “chirp” (if enabled, once every six
seconds) until it is reset. The controller will automatically advance the fault station to the
next programmed station.
•
Built-in self-test allows you to test various internal circuitries utilizing built-in test
capability.
•
Non-volatile memory to retain the program(s) and controller information during power
outages or seasonal shut downs. This information is maintained indefinitely.
•
A "real time" clock with non-volatile backup to maintain the actual date and time during
power outages without the need of batteries. This eliminates the need to reprogram the
controller every time there is a power outage.
•
Advanced circuitry to automatically monitor internal voltages and reset on-board
microprocessor circuitry during power “brown-out” or error conditions.
•
Automatic electronic fuse which resets intelligently based upon need. (No user fuses or
circuit breakers to reset or fail.)
•
Intelligent resumption of program execution after power outages to ensure that program
starts are not lost. The controller intelligently schedules irrigation after any outage while
preserving the original water window.
•
Automatic detection of main line water breaks. Upon detection the controller will shutdown
all active irrigation, energize a Normally Open Master Valve (if selected), condemn any
future start times, and trigger audible and visual alarm indicators.
•
Automatic detection of unscheduled water flow. Upon detection the controller will activate
the Normally Open Master Valve (if selected), condemn any future start times, and trigger
audible and visual alarm indicators.
•
Automatic detection of upper stations flow limit. Upon detection the controller will turn off
the fault station, advance the program to the next station, condemn the station from any
future watering times, and trigger audible and visual alarm indicators.
•
Automatic detection of no water flow to a station (“No Flow”). Upon detection the
controller will turn off the fault station, advance the program to the next station, condemn
the station from any future watering times, and trigger audible and visual alarm indicators.
