Sets the syringe time in 30-second intervals; e.g., 8006 01 0100 (without a password) or 8006
pppp 01 0100 (with a password) sets the syringe time to 100 intervals (50 minutes). The number
of intervals must be given as four digits with leading zeros but can be no greater than 0255.

irrigation.
8011
Resets to factory defaults.
Installing Additional 8-Station Output Modules
The OSMAC G3 controller can be upgraded to a maximum of 64 station outputs with the addition of 8-station output
modules and optional terminal boards. The station module is supplied with the required mounting hardware and
connector cable.
Note: Each of the eight output module positions has a specific station number assignment. An output module can be
installed in any open position. The controller recognizes the module station order as follows:
(Front, left to right)
Backplate
Ribbon Cable
Latch
Output Distribution
Board
Standard-Station
Output Terminal
Block
Optional Station Output

Module position 1 = Stations 1–8
Module position 2 = Stations 9–16
Module position 3 = Stations 17–24
Module position 4 = Stations 25–32
(Back, left to right)
Module position 1 = Stations 33–40
Module position 2 = Stations 41–48
Module position 3 = Stations 49–56
Module position 4 = Stations 57–64
Installation Procedure (Refer to Figure 7)
1. Switch power supply Off.
2. Place the 8-station module onto the backplate,
positioning it between the four guideposts.
Carefully press inward at the top of the module
board to engage the plastic latch.
3. Ground and secure the module to the backplate
assembly using the single machine screw
provided. *Important: The machine screws
connect the output and station modules to the
24V power and ground bus bars and must be
installed in the designated locations as indicated
in Figure 10. Do not attempt to use self-tapping
screws in these locations.
4. Install the ribbon cable to the 8-station module
and output distribution board receptacles as
shown. The ribbon cable connectors are keyed
to insert in only one direction.
5. Insert the optional station output terminal
board assembly connector or standard terminal block to the station module receptacle. Secure the terminal board
assembly to the chassis with three self-tapping screws and two machine screws provided.
6. Connect the valve wiring as described on page 4.
7. Switch power supply On.
