CONTROLLING A ROTOR
The Handheld provides the ability to manually turn on/off
irrigation, program a default schedule, control power modes,
synchronize the clock, and initiate diagnostic modes with a
configured Rotor. If a Rotor has not been previously configured,
return to the
Configuring a Rotor
section.
In order to control a rotor, enter the Rotor ID as shown in the
Entering the Rotor ID
section.
RotorOps
Within the RotorOps menu, the Rotor can be manually turned on
or off.
To turn the Rotor Off, press <1> on the keypad.
To turn the Rotor On, press <2> on the keypad and enter a
duration. The duration is a three-digit value representing the
number of minutes to irrigate (240 minute maximum).
For example, <005> represents 5 minutes.
Press <enter> on the keypad to send the schedule
to the rotor.
Select <1> for a one-time event or <2> for a reoccurring event
on the keypad for a schedule type. If <1> is selected, then the

Within the TableChg menu, the Rotor can be programmed with a default program, which would
become active if communication with the Central Control Software is lost.
PWR Ctrl
Within the PWR Ctrl menu, the Rotor can be commanded to change
between various power management modes and to reinitialize itself.
By selecting <1> PWROff, the Rotor will completely shut its internal power off. The unit will not be
capable of communicating to either the Central Control Software or the Handheld in this mode.
Additionally, the Rotor will not be capable of running any of the irrigation schedules programmed
into it. For the Rotor to acknowledge this command from the Handheld, the user must provide the
appropriate three-digit Security Password. A magnet will be required to reactivate the Rotor for
operation.
