1.0 WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 Series Controller Information
1.1 Controller Application
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 series controller is designed for commercial, institutional and municipal
applications where water conservation and optimum plant health is paramount. The controller is
suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation and is available in different material finishes in wall
mount or pedestal style enclosure configurations. Pre-assembled chassis models are also available in
various sizes to retrofit into existing irrigation controllers when needed.
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 series is compatible with WeatherTRAK Central Internet Management
Services (WeatherTRAK Central) , as provided by HydroPoint Data Systems, Inc., Petaluma, CA.
1.2 Controller Warranty
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 series has a five (5) year limited warranty for parts and labor. The optional
pedestal has a five (5) year limited warranty for parts and labor.
1.3 Controller Communication
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 series is specified with built-in Central Communication (two-way cellular
wireless modem). Central (two-way) communication provides Central Internet Management with
remote programming; monitoring and real-time notification of field alerts anywhere Internet access
(through a secure login and password) can be obtained.
1.4 WeatherTRAK Central Internet Management Service (WeatherTRAK Central) Features
WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 series controller and services will be provided by HydroPoint Data Systems,
Inc.
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 series controller receives local ET updates on a daily basis. Each
controller is assigned an ET Microzone representing approximately 1sq. Km that is associated with
the controller’s exact longitude and latitude coordinates Weather data collected from over 40,000
government-regulated and privately owned weather stations across the U.S. is combined with local
wind, temperature, solar radiation and humidity variables to model an virtual on-site weather station
with the expense of purchasing a weather station, proper sighting and on-going upkeep of
instrumentation.
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 controller has the ability to incorporate daily ET Everywhere updates in
two of the three station modes: 1) Auto mode with ET via depletion using crop coefficients (Kc) and 2)
User mode w/ ET by setting reference ET and percent adjustments on a station-by-station basis,
(User No ET does not incorporate ET Everywhere updates).
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 downloads the daily ET value and modifies each station’s runtime, water
days, cycle and soak times in combination with each stations calculated depletion value. When user-
defined water days are selected using Automated by WeatherTRAK station mode, the controller will
automatically decide whether to irrigate or not irrigate based on the current day’s ET and depletion of
each station independent of one another. The daily ET updates can be observed under the controller’s
ET Menu as well as the impact of the last delivered ET observed up to 8 weeks ahead under the
Preview Menu function.
It is the combination of the controller’s internal scheduling engine and daily ET updates that have
demonstrated proven water savings, optimum plant health and runoff reduction (caused by over-
irrigation) in multi-year independent studies. The WeatherTRAK Scheduling Engine incorporates the
Irrigation Association’s recognized methodology for irrigation listed in Best Management Practices
(BMP’s) as the methodology for calculating station run times.

If an ET value is not received, the controller will continue to irrigate based on the last downloaded
value. When an ET value is not received after five days, the controller will emit a beeping tone every
30 seconds signaling a Communication Alert. Communication can be easily restored by calling
WeatherTRAK’s Customer Service toll-free at 800.362.8774. In the event that ET service has expired
and is not renewed, the controller will continue to beep daily until controller is programmed in User No
ET mode.

2.3 Flow Monitoring Capabilities
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 controller will be capable of individual station flow sensing and alert
notification from up to four flow meter inputs and four master valve outputs as a standard feature. Flow
requirements are as follows:
•Directly compatible with WeatherTRAK Flow3 Hydrometer, WeatherTRAK FlowHD, and any
one of the following Data Industrial® IR-220 Series Flow Sensors:
o1", 1.25", 1.50", 2.0", 3", 4" and “Insert-Type” flow sensors
•Also directly compatible with any Creative Flow Sensor Technology (CST) flow sensor in
available sizes.
•Also directly compatible with Netafim Flow Sensors.
•Preloaded K and Offset values that correspond with the size of the flow sensor installed
oUser may adjust either value as needed
•Adjustable K and Offset values for special adaptations or “Insert-Type” models.
Controller Bidding Specifications

•The signal wire from the flow meter to the controller can be connected directly to a dedicated
flow input terminal and pulses can be read directly from the flow meter without any intermediate
devices.
•User defined flow monitoring thresholds for the following flow monitoring functions (including
“Off” for each function independent of one another (software version 7.6 or higher)
oMainline Break
oStation High Flow
oStation Low Flow
oNo Flow
oLeak Detection
oExtended Leak Detection for mainlines that incorporate normally open master valves.
•Selectable monitoring delay time from 1 to 6 minutes in 1-minute increments for each flow
condition independent of one another.
•User-defined “excluded stations” from “No-flow” monitoring if some flow values are lower than
the recommended flow rates of the flow meter installed.
•Mainline break, Station high flow, low flow and no-flow and leak detection thresholds are user-
defined from 0-995 GPM. Thresholds can be set in 1-GPM increments from 1-30 GPM and 5-
GPM increments from 30-995 GPM.
•The controller can be programmed to operate each station manually for a user defined period
from 1-10 minutes in 1-minute increments (default being 3 minutes) for the purposes of
learning, storing each individual stations flow rate. This flow rate will be compared against a
flow rate each time scheduled irrigation occurs. The user may apply a global Offset value in a
percentage for the station high flow threshold for a single, multiple or all stations from 5-80% in
5%-increments. The user may also override this global percentage and enter their own value in
GPM increments for a single, multiple or all stations from 1-999 GPM in 1-GPM increments.
•The individual station’s learned flow identified as “Assigned Station Flow” (ASF), can be re-
learned at any time or overridden by a user if thought to be incorrect. The user defined value
can be reset back to the default or last learned flow value through a button press in the
appropriate submenu.
•WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 can monitor for mainline break conditions for a single station or multiple
stations operating simultaneously during scheduled and non-scheduled irrigation in either Stack
or Overlap modes. The depletion model will continue to monitor those remaining stations that
did not irrigate and will water these stations on the next scheduled active day and start time.
oA mainline break threshold alert is triggered when one or more stations (Stack vs. Overlap)
flow values exceed the user-defined mainline break threshold. Any operating stations are
immediately stopped after the flow threshold and delay period are exceeded. The controller
continues to monitor for any flow exceeding the user defined threshold with the master valve
open and if flows are monitored, the master valve is closed and all scheduled irrigation is
stopped and a mainline break alert is immediately posted. If the threshold value is not
exceeded, the controller will irrigate the next station(s) in the programming sequence and
note the amount of irrigation remaining for the triggered station(s) as part of the depletion
model. The user can define the delay time in which flow detection will begin for systems
where long laterals or valve locations require flows to “hydraulically balance” before
monitoring takes place. A mainline break alert will be automatically cleared at the next
scheduled start time. If the mainline break threshold and delay period is exceeded the
controller will once again stop all scheduled irrigation and re-post a mainline break alert.
oA Station Low Flow alert is triggered when the global station low flow offset has been
exceeded. The controller will immediately stop all operating stations and monitor for any low
flows. If low flow is measured and exceeds the mainline low flow threshold see expected
controller behavior above. If no flow is measured, the controller will post a station low flow
alert for the stations that operated and move to the next station(s) in the program sequence.
The individual stations with the low flow alert will be posted on both the controller and web
software.
oA Station High Flow alert is triggered with the global offset value or if the user defined
Station High Flow threshold and delay have been exceeded. The controller will immediately

stop all operating stations and monitor for any high flows. If flow is measured and exceeds
the mainline break threshold see expected controller behavior above. If no flow is measured,
the controller will post a station high flow alert for the stations that operated and move to the
next station(s) in the program sequence. The individual stations with the high flow alert will
be posted on both the controller and web software.
oA No Flow alert is triggered when a station is scheduled to operate and the No Flow
threshold value and delay periods are exceeded.This may be a result of a pump station
failing to start, a closed isolation valve in the mainline, a closed remote control valve or shut-
off backflow preventer. The controller will immediately post a No Flow alert for the
corresponding station(s) and move to the next station(s) in the program sequence. If three
or more successive stations are flagged as No-Flow, the controller will suspend remaining
irrigation and also immediately post a No-Flow alert to the controller and to the web
application.
oContinuous monitoring for leaks during non-scheduled irrigation or during soak periods
when no other scheduled irrigation is operating. When the user-defined threshold value and
delay period is exceeded, an alert notification is posted on the controller and the web
application, but the master valve is not closed until the high flow threshold is exceeded.
Scheduled irrigation continues and the leak notification will continue to appear until the leak
is repaired or until the threshold value is increased or leak detection is turned “Off”.
oExtended Leak offers an additional time delay for irrigations systems utilizing normally open
master valves. When leak detection threshold and extended leak delay period is exceeded,
the controller will immediately close a normally open master valve, post a Leak Alert and
suspend all scheduled irrigation unless a station is operated manually or until the next
scheduled start time. If the leak stops before the delay period expires, the controller will
reset and continue to watch for leak detection. If the leak appears again exceeded the leak
detect threshold and delay period a new leak detect alert will be posted.
2.4 Optional Controller Features
The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 offers the following:
•Flow monitoring capability when used with a Data Industrial IR-220 Series, Creative Flow
Sensor Technologies (CST) and Netafim Flow Sensing products.
•Compatibility with normally-closed rain, wind, freeze sensors capable of overriding all scheduled
programming functions when activated. Compatible with Toro, Irritrol and Hunter models.
•Compatibility with normally open or normally closed master valves with or without a flow meter
that is user-defined in the Setup menu. The maximum allowable holding current of compatible
master valves is 1000 mA to avoid station over-current valve alerts.
•A pump start can be assign to any available station output when needed. This assignment can
be done outside of Max Active stations and once it’s assigned, it will no longer have any station
programming attributes.
•A single or up to three programs can be excluded from a pump start when not required. Any
station assigned to a program excluded from a pump start will operate without a pump being
actuated from the controller. This feature will only function for pump starts that are electrically
actuated from a controller not mechanically actuated such as a pressure or flow switch.
•The WeatherTRAK ET Pro3 series has direct compatibility with RainMasterTM Pro-Max UA
Series when used with an EX32 cable assembly (purchased separately) and TRCTM
“Commander” or “Sidekick” handheld remotes by simply connecting to a 32-pin connector as a
standard feature to each 24-station input / output board.
oControllers incorporating pump starts will require the station assigned as a pump start to
be operated manually from the controller as part of using a hand-held remote.
oControllers incorporating normally closed master valves can be operated from either
compatible hand-held remote or by selecting a user-defined time length using the
“Maintenance Timeout “feature found in the MANUAL menu on the controller.
•An optional AC input surge protection kit can be ordered for locations where incidences of
lightning strikes or dirty power are high.
