Turn the dial to another position, and then back to the
Set Sensor Operation dial position (without holding
Information). At this location, choose the Suspend or
Pause responses for each ET Sensor by program
ET Sensor shutdowns only apply to the controller to which
the ET Sensor is connected.
The ACC cannot shutdown other controllers as a result of
these alarms.
ET Sensor shutdowns are not instantaneous, and there
may be a delay of up to 18 minutes between an ET Sensor
74
alarm and the actual shutdown. If this is not acceptable, a
separate sensor (such as Rain-Clik or Freeze-Clik) should
be installed and wired directly to one of the Sen 1-4 inputs
for instant shutdowns.
The controller will automatically check the ET Sensor for
updated sensor readings every 15 minutes. If an ET sensor
causes a controller Pause or Suspend, that action will
remain in effect for at least 15 minutes until the controller
updates the readings. If the sensor returns to normal, the
Suspend or Pause settings will be cancelled, as with any
other sensor.
Shutdown Levels. Turn the dial to Advanced Features
and arrow down to ET Functions. Press the + button.
Arrow down to ET Alarm Setup, and press the + button.
The ET Alarm Setup function sets the shutdown levels
for the sensors that are mapped as a location for sensor
shutdowns.
Rain Max: The maximum amount of rain that will be
permitted before a program is shutdown for the rest of the
day. Move to this position with the arrow keys and use +/-
to set the maximum.
The ET Rain sensor will shutdown sensors after 0.02"
(0.51 mm) of rainfall within an hour (this amount is not
programmable), but the program may be permitted to run
again, if no more rain is detected. The ET Sensor checks
for rainfall every 15 minutes.
If the Rain Max amount is reached, the controller will no
longer attempt to run the program that day.
Temp: The air temperature can be used as a freeze sensor
to stop automatic programs, and the temperature at which
shutdown occurs is programmable (from 25° to 45°
Fahrenheit, -3.8° to 7.2° Celcius). Move to this position
with the arrow keys and use +/- to set the low temperature
shutdown.
Wind: If the optional ET Wind is installed, the wind speed
(in mph or kph) can be used to shut down designated
programs.
Reminder: Alarm settings are not in effect until the
Sensor 1-4 inputs have been assigned to them at the Set
Sensor Operation dial position, and responses have been
configured by program.
