ESPLXD-ET Controller
Flow Sensors Setup
The Flow Sensor Setup Wizard tells the ESPLXD-ET controller what
flow sensors are used by your irrigation system.
Flow sensors are not required for the ESPLXD-ET controller, but they
add functionality by alerting you to abnormally high or low flow rates
and even shutting down affected MVs or stations if flow rates exceed
set thresholds. The ESPLXD-ET can support up to five flow sensors.
