PROGRAMMING RECEIVER

The LogicPLUS Control System, with its own unique technology utilizes actual station numbers when addressing the field Receivers. This significantly minimizes installation time and confusion, both on initial installation and any future maintenance or system expansion. Every LogicPLUS receiver may be programmed and re-programmed an infinite number of times to any Station Number from #1 to #128. Programming the receiver can be done in less than 20 seconds, either at the controller or remotely with the use of the LogicPLUS hand-held remote programmer in the field.

With most other two-wire controllers, a significant amount of receiver data input into the Controller is required. The LogicPLUS technology requires no Controller input of receiver data. A Controller replacement with the LogicPLUS controller is no big deal. Competitor’s controllers can take hours or even days to input the necessary receiver data into the controller!

VALVE RUN TIMES

	Hours / Min or Minutes / Seconds – LogicPLUS provides the option of irrigating in increments of Hours and Minutes or Minutes and Seconds depending on the program(s) used.

FERTIGATION

	The LogicPLUS comes standard with a Fertigation feature that allows you to program in a “Pre-Wet” time period, followed by a programmable Fertigation time period and then followed by a “Soak-In” period for the remaining balance of your total programmed irrigation Run Time for that station. The Fertigation Cycle is programmable by station, by program for maximum flexibility and practical use. It may be most desirable to use a separate program(s) for Fertigation. Schedule your Fertigation applications utilizing only that program for most desirable and effective use of your Fertigation resources.

LOOPING PROGRAM

	The Looping program is designed for continuously repeating a desired program, usually for short periods, commonly used in propagation or Nursery-type applications. For “Looping” applications, a Start Time is input and all the desired individual station Run Times are programmed for their own unique time requirements. The Looping cycle starts on the Start Time and then continues repeating the individual Run Times in sequence for the length of the “Looptime” value entered. Sensor capability for the Looping program is available for operating from Temperature Sensors.

FIELD WIRE TEST

Amperage Draw Display – A diagnostic tool for knowing and monitoring each individual station’s relative amperage draw during each valve’s activation. This display is a great help in trouble shooting a short in the field wiring or shorted valve solenoids. By identifying the valve(s) with the extreme amperage draw, you can isolate where your trouble is in the field wiring or a valve solenoid short may be located.

WATER BUDGET, PROGRAM ON/OFF, PUMP OR MASTER VALVE ON/OFF BY PROGRAM

On this one display, you may turn “On” or “Off” an entire program that may be used for Seasonal or Supplemental irrigating. All aspects of the program may be left intact, including individual Run Times, Start Times, calendar, etc. Plus you can program your Master valve or Pump to be “On” for each independent program and you can adjust your “Water Budget”, which is a user-friendly feature that increases or decreases all the station Run Times in a particular program, in 5% increments. This is typically done during the four seasons of the year or during severe weather swings of hot, cold, wet and dry conditions. The Water Budget has a normal baseline of 100% and may be decreased down to 5% or increased up to 250% from the 100% baseline.
