[ Types 1,2,3,7,8,9,10,11 are Programs determiners
option ]
The determiner factors can be digital or analog
elements, which can influence the programmed values
in order to adapt them to the climatic or environmental
changes or changes of the installation itself.
This takes place in two stages:
1. At program parameters the determiner factors
that can affect the program and how the de-
terminer will be dealt have to be indicated.
2. At the beginning or at the determiner factor in
each program.
Type 1 and 2 determiners: Having the option in-
stalled, irrigation programs will be started when the
sensor level (temperature, soil moisture, etc.) reach a
determined value. This value will be asked at the irri-
gation program as well as the starting time when
pressing the "mode" key.
The determiner will be only taken into account
when the irrigation is not taking place and when sixty
seconds have passed since the sensor value has
reached and maintained the starting value.
By answering "YES" to the "Generates a mes-
sage Y/N" question, a SMS message will be sent to a
mobile telephone, whenever the option has been in-
stalled. This question appears in all types of start and
stop determiners.
P01 Determiner 1, type: 02
Sensor: 04 Generates a message Y/N : YES
Type 3 determiner: Having the option installed,
irrigations by integration (total of sensor units in rela-
tion to time) can be started. For example, we can inte-
grate with the solar radiation de vats/hour the plant
has received since the previous irrigation and order
more frequent irrigations in sunny days than in cloudy
ones.
The sensor number and a minimum level, from
which the integration will be allowed, have to be en-
tered. At the irrigation program, next to the starting
time and pressing the "mode" key, the integration
value since the previous irrigation will be asked in
order to deal with a new irrigation.
P01 Determiner 1, type : 03
Sensor: 01 Min.: 0200 Wm
Type 4 determiner: It allows the starting of irriga-
tion programs by a connected to a digital input ele-
ment with a starting programs function. Look at [6.4.1
codes 36-43] sector.
Enter which start input functions out of the 8 pos-
sible ones will affect the program.
P01 Determiner 2, type : 04
Starting F. = 1 Generates a message Y/N : Y
2
Types 5 and 6 determiners: They are used to
stop conditionally or temporarily an irrigation ordered
by a program whenever the sensor value is not a ref-
erence value. Type 5 will stop when the value sur-
passes the reference and type 6 when it goes down.
P01 Determiner 2, type : 05
Sensor : 16 Temporary? (Y/N): N
P01 Determiner 2, type : 05
Sensor : 16 Reference : 034 Km/h
Immediately, if the stop is conditional a differen-
tial (dead band) from which, more in type 6 or less in
type 5, depending on the programmed reference, the
irrigation will be reactivated, will be asked.
P01 Determiner 2, type : 05
Differential : 022 Km/h
If the stop is conditional, not timed, when water-
ing is started again, it will do so from the time at which
watering was stopped.
If the stop is temporary timed, watering will stop
and when it starts again it will move to the next sub-
program.
In order to avoid false operations, the sensor level
has to last more than 30 seconds out of the margins to
be operative.
Some examples for the stopping determiners can
be: the fact of stopping a sprinkling due to a wind
excess or stopping due to a lack of pressure in a pipe
line.
Type 7, 8 and 9 determiners: Having the option
installed, the irrigation units and/or the fertilization by
integration (total of sensor units in relation to time) can
be modified. For example, we can integrate with the
solar radiation of vats/hour the plant has received
since the previous irrigation and order a higher time in
volume in sunny days and a lower one in cloudy ones.
The "sensor" number, a "minimum level" from
which the integration will be allowed and a "limit" se-
curity value in the integration which in case of being
surpassed will not be taken into account, have to be
entered. In case of having a rain sensor, "99" has to
