To set an irrigation program-regiment/strategy, the grower must select the necessary valves and set the
Run Time and Dosing programs. The grower can define one or more programs for one or more valves.
Refer to PROGRAM MENU, page 11 for detailed information on these programs.
•Run Time Programs
oBased on Time or Quantity
oSet water before and after dosing process (fertilizer injection)
•Dosing Programs (Fertilizer)
oUp to eight dosing channels per program
oEach channel can be defined by:
oQuantity
oProportional Quantity
oTime
oProportional Time
•Irrigation Timing Based on External Condition Programs
oSupports up to 15 programs
