Controller Stations
The controller has several
stations
as shown in the illustration below. Each station is connected to a re-
mote control sprinkler valve. The valve opens when it receives a signal from the controller, and the
sprinklers connected to the valve turn on. When these sprinklers have run for their allotted time, the
controller shuts off the valve and opens the next valve in sequence.
For example, the illustration shows that station 1 is currently watering. When station 1 is finished, the
controller will shut it off and start station 2. In the same way, station 3 will begin watering when station 2
is finished.
