5.2 4 & 6-station instaLLation (740-000 & 746-000 onLy)
notE:
Each zone requires a dedicated pair of wires from the controller.
the four (740-000) and six (746-000) station controllers have red and black pairs
of wires numbered for each valve. notice there are 2 extra sets of wires. One
set of wires (black and red) is stamped with the letter M representing the master
valve, and one set of wires (yellow) with the letter S representing the rain sensor
connection. Connect each of the controller wire sets (each with red and black) to
each solenoid wire (red and black). Connect the red wire from the controller to the
red wire on the solenoids and each of the black wires
from the controller to each black wire on the solenoids
using waterproof connectors (
see I
).
NOTE:
If you install a master valve, it will open
automatically with each valve.
no special programming needed.
NOTE:
Do not strip the master valve or sensor
wires unless using master valve or rain
sensor.
IMpOrTANT:
If a valve remains open
in manual operation, you may need to
examine the solenoid and the adapter to
see that they are installed correctly.
Make sure the adapter is firmly
secured but do not over tighten the
solenoid to the valve (and do not
cross thread the adapter into the
solenoid cavity).
NOTE:
the solenoid operates only
with standard 2-way normally closed valves.
CAUTION:
For all valves with built-in internal manual bleed lever, make sure
the lever is in closed position. Do not move the manual lever after installing the
solenoid using the valve adapter. If the manual lever on the valve is used, it can
damage the adapter outlet port causing the valve to stay open.
