Irrigation - Agrowtek GrowControl GCX Instruction Manual

Irrigation

Multi-stage irrigation controls operate watering stages in a sequential fashion. Each stage may have a
unique irrigation duration and output assignment (output channels do not need to be sequential.) Once all
of the stages have completed, they can be repeated at speci c intervals for a speci c count, or, multiple ir-
rigation rules can be con gured to activate through out the day.
Irrigation stages can coordinate with an irrigation pump or main supply valve, and can operate a drain valve
output for ood tables between stages. Irrigation may be triggered based on time of day when the rule is
enabled, or by moisture level if a moisture sensor is connected.
Rules for how to operate the irrigation stages are created and edited on the rules tab.
