5.0 Connecting the SL9600TW 2-Wire Controller
o Loam Soils: Typically a 3-ground rod grid is required,
located in an irrigated zone, with CADWELD connections,
6” augured holes and Ground Enhancement Material are
required.
o Sandy soils: Require the most extensive ground circuits
which require combinations of ground rods, plates,
CADWELD connections and ground enhancement
materials, located in an irrigated zone.
• Any combination of the above recommendations should
be considered to achieve 12 Ohms or less. Long-term
maintenance of any ground system requires that it be located
within an irrigated or wetted zone.
• Refer to www.erico.com for a complete line of grounding
equipment and materials.

5.0 Connecting the SL9600TW 2-Wire Controller
Step 1: Connect the incoming power wires to the Power
terminals on the SL9600TW.
Step 2 (optional): If you are using a master valve or pump start
relay, and it is more convenient to wire to these devices at a
location not near the controller, you can program up to two
decoders to activate a master valve or a pump start relay. If
you choose this method of activation, you will need to program
a decoder as Zone 97 or zone 98 for use with the pump start
relay or master valve. Zone 97 will be associated with MV1 and
Zone 98 will be associated with MV2.
Step 3: You are ready to program your decoders. The
SL9600TW will perform a “power-up self test” at initial power-
up. The power-up self test will confirm the integrity of the
processor and will test the display and all LEDs to make sure
they are working. A successful test will terminate with two
dashes “– –” in the display.
6.0 Programming the Decoders
Program all your decoders at the SmartLine® controller. You
will need to mark each decoder with a pen (included) to record
the zone number assigned to each valve. Note the adjacent
chart of valve wire colors for each decoder:
• Each decoder will have RED and BLACK wires. These are
the wires that will connect to the 2-wire path. The RED
and BLACK are also the wires that you will insert in the
Programming Ports on the SL9600TW to program the
decoder.
• The wires on the other end of each decoder are for
connection to your valves.
• 1-Valve Decoder: WHITE wire for the common and ORANGE
wire for valve one.
• 2-Valve Decoder: Common is WHITE; ORANGE is valve one
and YELLOW is valve two.
• 4-Valve Decoder: Common is WHITE; ORANGE is valve one;
YELLOW is valve two; GREEN is valve three and BLUE is
valve four.
