Note:
This will allow you to set up the programs that
you want to use Moisture Sensors on.
Note:
The controller may be set up for some
programs to use ET, other programs to use
moisture, or programs can be set up to use a
combination of the two.
2. Moisture Sensor Assignment

Next, you will have to enter the settings for each
Moisture sensor assigned to a station.
A representative station for each different climatic
and plant material zone on the controller is given a
sensor and is known as a Master station. Slave
stations are stations without sensors and are
assigned to a master station which share similar
water requirements. The choice of groups of stations
controlled by the same sensor is done at the
controller within the MOISTURE SENSOR
ASSIGNMENT screen.
Example:
Station: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10
Sensor: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10
becomes
Station: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10
Sensor: 01 02 03 04 03 03 07 03 09 10
Note:
In the example above station 03 is the Master
station (the station with the moisture sensor) and
stations 05, 06, and 08 are now slaves stations to
station 03 (Highlighted in the example).
