The Sensor Input Kit receives sensor data from status, flow, temperature, rain buckets, and
pressure sensors, then relays that data to the Lynx computer. There, it can be used to monitor
conditions and automatically respond to user-defined alarms.
• Sensor data is stored in the VP satellite for 12 hours and transmitted back to Lynx
every 2 hours.
• Current sensor information and alarm status can be viewed in the VP faceplate.
• Central-based or stand-alone alarm responses can be configured for any sensor input.
