For a correct irrigation procedure, we reccomend executing the various phases in the right order as
described below.
PHASE DESCRIPTION
Switch console on.
Unwind the tube. The console will measure and display
the meters of tube being unwound.

6.3 END OF START-UP PHASE
When this is displayed, the console is ready to be programmed (PGM) and awaits
hose unwinding.
If the message is displayed, however, the console does not wait for hose
unwinding, but continues its working cycle from the point where it had been
interrupted.
Not End
See par. 13 page 19 message Not End

7. UNWINDING THE HOSE
The hose shall be unwound at the end of the starting-up phase and before
pressing the key to start the working cycle.
The console measures the meters of hose automatically while unwinding (up to
max. 999 meters).
The quantity of unwound hose will be displayed (for ex. 350m).
If the unwound meters are measured by the sensor mounted on the pinion,
the console also displays the number of layer being unwound at that moment
( for ex. layer no. 4 ).
If after unwinding the hose, the display still displays meters = 0, it means
that the unwound meters have not been measured due to a trouble or a
failure. (See paragraph 12 SENSORS TEST on page 18).
START
IMPORTANT
Make sure the quantity displayed by the console is correct.
If it is not, modify the displayed value manually.
If the hose is being unwound after switching the console on, enter the measure of the
unwound meters read on the hose manually.

8.1.3 PROGRAMMING SECTOR
The programmed meters of lenght in Sector 1, Sector 2 and Sector 3 cannot be modified
when the working cycle is in process (IRR).
Make sure they are correct before pressing key .
The rewinding speed in the various sectors can be programmed from 5 to 250 m/h.
The length in meters of Sector 1, Sector 2, Sector 3 can be programmed from 0 to 250 m.
! ! ATTENTION ! !
REV 0/00 Pag.07
For a full single-speed rewinding, the required speed has to be programmed only in
Sector 4 and set to zero the programmed meters of lenght on Sectors 1,2 and 3.
Sector 4 is always considered as the last sector in the irrigation cycle to be carried out. For
this reason, the only data to be programmed is the required speed that will be kept untill the
end of rewinding.

11.3 END-OF-IRRIGATION TIME LIMIT
This function allows to establish the time within which irrigation should be ended.
For this reason, it is important to set all programming values correctly.
If the end-of-irrigation limit time is programmed in different way, this function can be used in
two ways. In particular:
In this case, in case of interruptions during the working cycle
The limit time should be reached before the expected end-of-irrigation time.
A
B
By programming the limit time equal to the expected end of irrigation time.
By programming a time limit different than the expected end-of-irrigation
Any considerations concerning the application of this function should be related
to the indication of the end-of-irrigation time, displayed by pressing key
(see par. 8.3 page 12).
(for ex. because there is not enough pressure) the console would automatically guarantee
the arrival time established by recalculating the programming values in view of the time that
is still available.
The console would calculate the new programming values automatically.
(initial pause, final pause, rewinding speed).
