1. PROGRAMMING & TEST INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 Programming the WaterSwitch Valve Control
Lift and remove the catch cover on the top of the case. Press the catch underneath to release the front panel.
If the Water Valve Control is to be mains powered or any other auxiliary connections are to be made, cut out cable paths and connect
to terminals as shown in Figure 1.
Install 3 x AA batteries (the Water Valve Control will beep 3 times to indicate correct installation). Plug in to mains supply if a power
adaptor is being used.
If installing an Extended Range system, install 3 x AA batteries in the battery compartment of the Valve Driver (the Driver will beep to
indicate correct installation). If the Valve Driver is to be mains powered, drill a cable entry point and connect the mains power adaptor
cable to the 12V terminal block as indicated on the PCB.
Follow the programming Instructions (sections 1.2 & 1.3) and wireless tests (sections 1.6.2 & 1.6.4) before mounting the Water Valve
Control and the Valve Driver (if installing an Extended Range system) in its intended position.
1.2 Water Valve Control – DEFAULT SETTINGS
Set Water Valve Control DEFAULT SETTINGS using the DIP switches and Setting Button on the PCB (Figure 1).
1. To set AUTO CHECK THAT A VALVE IS CONNECTED set DIP 1 ON. All other DIPs OFF. If set, an alarm will sound if valve is
disconnected.
DEFAULT = do not check (DIP 1 OFF).
2. To set VALVE AUTO CLOSE ON MAINS POWER FAILURE (when using the optional mains power adaptor) set DIP 2 ON. All other
DIPs OFF.
DEFAULT = do not close valve on mains power failure (DIP 2 OFF).
Once the DIPs are set, press and hold the Setting Button UNTIL the Yellow LED comes on and continue to hold until it flashes. Release
the Setting Button. The Water Valve Control will beep twice to confirm that the settings are stored in memory.
