Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing Toro's Remote Gateway. The Gateway combines modular flexibility, ease of use and increased
programmability in a single controller.
The Remote Gateway user interface is easy to use and includes a backlight for improved visibility in low-light conditions, yet
it is completely viewable in direct sunlight. The faceplate's combination of menu buttons, navigation arrows and input dial
allows for easy and quick menu navigation.
The Remote Gateway comes in two flavors:
• DEC-RS-1000-DR (digital radio and modem)
• DEC-RS-1000-M (modem only)
Installation
Cabinet
Selecting the proper installation site for the Remote Gateway is essential to safe and reliable operation. The Remote Gateway
features a weather resistant cabinet designed for indoor or outdoor installation.
Install the Remote Gateway:
•
on a vertical wall or other sturdy structure
•
so that the display is at or below eye level
•
near a grounded power source
•
so that it is in shade during the hottest hours of the day
•
with as much protection from direct sunlight, rain, wind and snow as possible
!
IMPORTANT! Do not mount the controller where it is exposed to direct spray from the irrigation system.
Steps:
1. Drill two pilot holes 6" (15.25cm) apart for the top keyholes of the
controller cabinet.
2. Install the top screws leaving approximately 1/4" (5–6mm) of exposed
screw to accommodate the cabinet.
If mounting the cabinet on dry wall or masonry, install the
appropriate type of screw anchors or fasteners to ensure secure
installation.
3. Hang the cabinet using the top keyhole slots.
See Figure 1.
4. Open the cabinet door and install the two bottom
screws to secure the cabinet.
