Irrigation Features
Here are the main features that the NLC utilizes to help you automate your
irrigation:
• Controls up to 100 solenoids attached to valves or relays via the
built‐in connection board and three expansion boards.
• Provides ET corrected irrigation for optimal adjusted water
consumption.
• Measures water flow and raises alarms or halts irrigation on
unexpected flow.
• Allows for 10 independent irrigation programs. In addition there is
a fixed test program that activates all 100 stations in turn.
• A program can activate up to 100 stations in named order.
• Each station can run for up to 17:59:50 (In fact, you can boost this
even further by increasing the "water budget".
• Each program can activate a one or more booster pumps in addition
to the stations.
• Master valves and booster pumps will be activated in parallel in all
connection and expansion boards.
• All programs have 12 start times per day.
• All programs can run simultaneously (to capacity of the transformer
anc connection board).
• You configure each program to run on any selection of days in a 14
day period, or on odd/even dates.
• You can activate one or more valves or programs manually while
one or more programs are running, up to a total of 12
simultaneously running valves.
