7. PROGRAMS
A program is an automatic irrigation command that includes which sectors apply, during what time, and for
how many irrigation and fertilizer units. The Agrónic 2500 has 50 independent or sequential programs.
Access the Functions menu (FUN–1–ENTER); once in the programs menu, the first five on the list are dis-
played. Use the arrow keys to move through the program list or the 1 to 9 keys. Each program shows the irrigation
sectors it contains. Select the program and press ENTER to access it.
Each irrigation program has one to four sectors that can be irrigated at the same time.
A program can be deleted by setting the sector values to “00”. When exiting it will ask for a confirmation.
The days of the week selected with the initial correspond to an ac-
tive day, and those marked with dash are inactive days; press the day’s
key to activate or deactivate it.
One, several or every day of the week can be selected. The “Daily”
key activates or deactivates all the days.
The Start value corresponds to the time when the program is going to start irrigation; it has a 24-hour format
and runs from 00:01 to 23:59: the value 00:00 is not valid.
When irrigating several sectors or groups of sectors one after anoth-
er, sequential programming can be used; to do so, it will be necessary
to set up the program in the
“Parameters
- Program
”
[6.4.] with the type of
start (unless it is set to do it with starting time “99:00”). This function asks
directly for the program that is sequential.
On the screens in the example, program 3 will start when 2 ends.
When one program is sequential to another, it will not use the days of
the week or the start time, as it will be the first program in the sequence
that sets the days and times.
It is possible to start an irrigation program by a command from a digi-
tal sensor connected to an input, such as a minimum level sensor for
filling a pond. It will first be necessary to configure the program in the
section
“Parameters
-
Programs”
[6.4.] in order to change the type of start.
