PROGRAM MENU
The figure above shows "Day: 04/06", meaning the number of the days in the cycle is 6, and the current day is day 4.
Day 1 and 5 are set to dose, day 3 is set to irrigate water only, and on days 2, 4 and 6 the program is idle.

9.1.1 Setting Irrigation that is Longer than 24 Hours

If a cycle day is 1 and the irrigation length is over 24 hours, the irrigation will repeat itself continuously, which means
continuous irrigation.
Note: Dosing operates according to ('D-W') for the same day and not according to the setting when the irrigation
has started. If irrigation starts at 18:00 and on this day dosing is set ('D'), the irrigation crosses midnight to a day
where no dosing is set ('W'), dosing stops at midnight!

9.2 Influence Program

NMC Irrigation Junior Pro enables adjusting irrigation settings according the following factors (labeled "Influences" on
the screen):
• Solar radiation
• Amount of drainage
• Amount of fertilizer present in the drainage
• VPD
• Temperature
These Influences can adjust the following irrigation settings:
• EC
• Radiation Sum (RadS)
• Minimum Rest Time (MinT)
For example, a grower may want to increase the EC based on the Solar Radiation. Alternatively, he may want to
decrease the MinT based on the drainage.

• Using the Influences

• Setting the Influences

9.2.1 Using the Influences
• Set an Influence to increase or decrease the setting.
• Changes to the setting are in percentages (for example, a 10% increase in the EC level).
• Several Influences adjust the EC setting. The final adjustment amount is based on the sum total of the
different Influences.
• You enter up to three points for each Influence setting. Irrigation Junior Pro automatically calculates the curve
based on these points.
• You can program up to 15 different programs (corresponding to the 15 irrigation programs)
• After configuring an Influence, you must enable it (under ACTIVE/SOURCE).
9.2.2 Setting the Influences
1. Go to Install > Device Layout.
2. Define relays as dosing channels, as required.
3. Go to Program > Irrigation.
4. Using the arrow keys, scroll down to Screen 2. The following screen appears.
