Cause

Solution

Simul 

Stations 

(Simul- 

taneous 

Station 

Operation)

Too many 

or too few 

stations are 

operating 

simultaneously 

when 

program(s) 

operate.

LX-IVM 

(Controller) 

SimulStations 

are configured 

incorrectly.

Turn dial to 2-wire Setting / Advanced / 

SimulStations. Select LX-IVM SimulStations 

and adjust the maximum number of 

simultaneous irrigation stations you want to 

allow to operate across all programs at any 

time. Non- Irrigation SimulStations control 

stations with Non-Irr Priority.

PGM (Program) 

SimulStations 

are configured 

incorrectly.

Turn dial to 2-wire Setting / Advanced 

SimulStations. Select PGM SimulStations 

and adjust the maximum number of 

simultaneous irrigation stations you want 

to allow to operate simultaneously within 

the currently selected program. Move 

the Program Button to select the other 

programs 1 - 40.

Weather 

Sensors

Weather 

sensor is not 

preventing 

controller 

manual 

operation.

This is by 

design.

Manual station, program or test program 

operation (from the front panel or a remote) 

is allowed regardless of the weather sensor 

state. To see the current state of a weather 

sensor, turn the dial to Weather Sensors. The 

status of each sensor is displayed.

Wireless 

weather 

sensor is not 

providing 

input to the 

controller.

Sensor receiver 

is not wired to 

the controller 

module 

correctly.

The IVM 2-Wire Interface Module includes 

4 terminals for wireless weather sensor 

connections. Wiring connections should be 

made as follows:
•  Sensor receiver power wires to + and – 

terminals.

•  Sensor receiver sensor wires to Sen and 

C terminals.

Controller 

Knock-

outs

I am having 

trouble 

removing the 

knock-outs 

on the 

ESP-LX Series 

Controller 

plastic cabinet.

Unlike knock-

outs on a metal 

enclosure, 

these plastic 

knock-outs are 

designed to be 

removed by 

applying force 

to the center at 

the dimple.

Prior to installing the cabinet, place on a flat 

surface with the knock-out facing up. Locate 

the dimple in the center of the knock-out 

you wish to remove. Place the tip of a large 

Phillips screwdriver in the dimple. Use a 

rubber or wooden mallet to firmly strike 

the top of the screwdriver. The knock-out 

should pop out in a single piece. If it breaks, 

use pliers to remove the pieces. Do not use a 

flat-bladed screwdriver around the outside 

of the knock-out as this could crack the case.
