Weather Signal

Information Log
Weather Signal
The Weather Signal screen displays:
• Last:
The date and time of the last recorded
weather signal.
• Accuracy:
The ET Manager looks at the last
two weeks of weather signals and reports the
accuracy of the weather signal. An accuracy
level less than 65% will create an Attention
condition. The cause should be identified and
corrected. If a weather signal is missed the ET
Manager adjusts automatically.
• Signal:
The weather signal is reported as
either “Detected” or “Not Detected.” If the
weather signal is not detected press the
À
at
the Reset option to confirm this status. Signal
detection can take up to two minutes. If this
condition persists contact your installer or Rain
Bird Authorized Distributor.
• Test Counter:
The test counter reports all sig-
nals received by the ET Manager. The frequen-
cy and number of signals is controlled by the
WRSP. The test counter is a diagnostic tool to
further test the signal reception of the ET
Manager. The test counter accumulates sig-
nals, and is cleared by resetting the signal. The
Test Counter registers every signal received
increasing from 1 to 255 counts, and resets to
zero once 255 is reached.
