 Design Guide, v2.3 

 

 

Introduction 

This Design Guide is presented to help clarify standard design questions for the IC System

TM

. If there are 

any questions or specific examples that may not be adequately addressed within this guide, please 

contact your Rain Bird sales or service manager for additional clarification to aid in the proper design for 

the specific application. 

 

IC System– Product Definitions 

Central Control Software 

Cirrus

TM

, Nimbus II

TM

, Stratus II

TM

 and Stratus LT

TM

 are the Central Control applications that are available 

to  operate  with  the  IC  System.  The  software  is  used  to  establish  the  irrigation  system  parameters, 

operate  the  system  and  perform  troubleshooting  tasks.    There  are  many  troubleshooting  diagnostic 

features within the software that enable the user to quickly diagnose and identify the location of field 

related issues on the course.
