About This Manual
This manual is an addendum to ESP-LX Series Controller
Installation & Operations Guides. The instructions in this
manual guide you through installing an IQ-NCC Cartridge
in an ESP-LX Controller (not included), connecting the
communication cables or antenna, and configuring the
cartridge for communication with the IQ computer or IQ
Server Satellite Controller.
ESP-LX Series Controllers
Rain Bird ESP-LXME and ESP-LXD controllers normally
operate as stand-alone irrigation controllers, but can be
upgraded to become field components of the IQ Central
Control System with the installation of an IQ Network
Communications Cartridge.
