Flow Sensor 66

Navigation:

FloWatch compares current flow conditions to expected, learned or user-entered flow rates and
takes various actions based on your settings and input. Since current flow conditions are required,
FloWatch can only be used when flow sensors are present. To use FloWatch, you must do all of the
following:

1

Install flow monitoring hardware into the appropriate locations of your irrigation

system. You should install one flow sensor just downstream of each master valve but

upstream of any station valves.

•

Note: To ensure stable readings make sure you follow the manufacturer’s instructions when you install the

flow sensor.

2

Connect the flow sensor to the Pro Smart module, for more details, see “

Connect a Flow

3

Set up the flow sensors using the flow sensor setup. See “

Flow Sensors

” for more details.

4

Follow the directions below to set up FloWatch.

•

Once you have set up FloWatch on the controller, the current flow rate will be shown on the Auto screen

unless you turn off

FloWatch™

13.1.11 FloWatch™ Set Up

The LXME2 controller lets you set the flow rates you expect or to automatically Learn Flow rates
based on real usage.

Once flow is learned or manually entered, the High Flow and Low Flow settings let you define the
parameters for excessive or low flow and to set the behavior of the controller when these conditions
are detected. You can also turn FloWatch off or back on again if you like.

FloWatch needs expected flow rates to work properly. Flow rates can be entered manually or can
be learned automatically through a Learn Flow process. An automatic Learn Flow operation will
Learn Flow for each station that has programmed Run Times. Ensure you have set up run times for all
stations included in a Learn Flow exercise prior to setting up a Learn Flow.

•

Prior to learning or manually setting station flow rates, it is a good idea to check the Master Valve

assignments for each of your stations. See “

Station Setup

” for more details.

NOTICE

Water pressure, particularly from municipal sources, can vary significantly throughout the day. To mitigate
this variance, press the time delay option to delay the Learn Flow start time to when irrigation would
normally operate.
