Page 5: 4．How To Install
4．How to install Please read manual before installation. We have how to install video online. 4.1 Notes of installation 1，Make sure solar panel is face maximum sun. If there is not enough sun, add extra solar panel. 2 ， For application of controlling pump and master valve, must install protective pressure sensor or pressure switch.
Page 7 How to install pump...
Page 8 4.2.2 How to install pressure sensor Note: Because that the threaded end of pressure sensor is very small, suggest using three way adaptor for small pipe, and drill hole to install for big pipe according to related specification. When water pressure is out of setup range, the controller will protectively shut off the pump or master valve.
Page 9 4.2.3 Valve connection For master valve, choose one of them as protective devices, pressure switch, pressure sensor, or flow meter. To mechanical pressure switch, must do tiny adjusting when water go through pipe, adjusting the screw until no alarms at normal situation. (Open water proof cap to do adjusting.
Page 10 There are only total 5 wireless flow meter controllers for one GG-002 WIFI/3G system. 4.2.4 How to install battery Remark: 1). Battery standard: Rechargeable Ni-MH AA battery 1.2v*10 2). Please pay attention to (+/-) sign 3). Suggest to use more than 2300mAh rechargeable battery. Installation steps: 1).

If there is no sun to charge battery for some time, the battery voltage will reach low point, then controller will protectively shut down self , and automatically wake up after the battery is been recharged again. 5.2 How to register to GG-002WIFI/3G system main controller FMP-Solar-MB needs to register one by one following parts if you choose to sue them: 1.
Page 14 communication route yet. During search, the keys are been locked up. LCD show as following: After successfully established route, the FMP-Solar-MB field controller will send the route information to main controller. If done, main controller will show “ ” icon on related LCD screen, route show as “√”.
Page 15: How To Turn Off Controller
communicate with field controllers. After the field controllers found the route, will keep send the route information to the main controller every one minute, if tried three times without success, will looking for another route. Note 3: If the established route no more working, the controller will automatically search new route after one hour try.

stabilizing flow rate and water pressure, then setup right delay time for alarm. And setup right flow and pressure range. 5.7 Explanation of LCD information 5.7.1 Main working LCD display 1，Pump status：Above LCD display of “Auto off”, which means current status is auto off. Pump has 6 status, Auto off、Auto on、Manual off、Manual on、Remote on、Remote off.
Page 18 function is been enabled. If this function is been enabled, there is “ ” icon. First reminder show as “ ”, second reminder show as “ ” icon. After valve been turned off, flow rate reach to 0, this flow meter controller will automatically finish this cycle of fertilizing reminder.
Page 19 During communication time between FMP-Solar-MB and main controller, LCD shows as above. Then all the keys been locked up until communication finished. 5.7.4 Detail information windows During normal work status, push【１】【２】【３】【４】digital keys switch for different work information. Keep push【Enter】key，switch and cycle information window. Push key【１】，show flow meter information as following: Flow meter registration #：Here show as 1，which means registered as #1 flow meter in this system.
Page 20 Master valve registration #：Here #1 means this master valve is been registered as #1 master valve in this system. (If not registered, will show “Not registered”). 2. Master Valve status： The status are： Auto off、 Auto on、 Manual off、 Manual on、 Remote on、Remote off。...
