Blank (Off) : Normal.
Solid Red: Problem in decoder out put
module
Blinking Red: A decoder is faulted
(possible solenoid short or damage), or a
decoder fails to respond
Red at power-up then goes out.
Blinks Green when watering
any station.
Blinks Red, Overload or short on
2-wire path.
Solid Red, problem in decoder
output module.
The decoder output module should now be completely
installed and ready for normal operations.
StAtuS lIGhtS (ADM-99 OutPut MODule)
The ADM-99 decoder output module has four status LEDs
which can be helpful with setup and diagnostics. The
replacement upper deck label is used to label these lights.
Place the decoder light label over the controller deck lid
windows, not directly on the ADM99. The holes in the
replacement label should allow lights to shine through.
The decoder label aligns with station numbers 5, 2, 12,
and 9.
DeCODer PrOGrAMMInG
Each decoder is programmed with station address(es)
at the controller, before installing it in the 2-wire path.
The decoder output module has two holes in the lower
right called "Programming Port." Program the station
number(s) into the decoders, and then write the station
number assignments on the metallic tag on the decoders.
Before programming any stations, you should have an
exact plan on paper for the location of each decoder and
station in the system.
ICD decoders are available in 1, 2, 4, and 6-station sizes,
and they may be mixed in the same system. However,
the numbered station assignments for each decoder will
be filled in automatically, depending on the size of the
decoder.
Do not program the same station number into two
different decoders!

Green: Normal
Blinking Green or Off: Problem in
decoder output module.
When programming a 2, 4, or 6-station decoder, you only
assign a station number to the first station output. The
other stations are automatically filled in by the decoder in
numerical order, depending on the decoder size.
For example, a 4-station decoder (ICD-400) will activate
stations 20, 21, 22, and 23.
In programming, the decoder is assigned "20". Because it
is a 4-station decoder, it will automatically fill in the other
stations with 21, 22, and 23.
Single-station decoders (ICD-100) only receive the station
number that is selected for them.

1. Turn controller power ON.
2. Insert the stripped end of the red wire from a decoder
into one of the two holes labeled Programming Port on
the lower right of the decoder output module.
3. Insert the blue wire from the decoder into the other
Programming Port hole. Do not let the wires touch
each other!
4. Turn the controller dial to the hAdvanced Features
position.
