ESPLXD-ET Controller
Decoder Barcode Scanning
The optional Decoder Barcode Scanning feature allows you
to automatically enter Field Decoder Addresses into the
ESPLXD-ET controller.
Decoder barcode scanning is an optional feature of the Programming
Backup Cartridge (PBC-LXD) that lets you set up Field Decoder
addresses in the ESPLXD-ET controller by using a barcode scanning
pen to read the removable barcode labels attached to Rain Bird’s field
decoders (see Programming Guide instructions for more details).
