I have programmed irrigation, how come the system does not start? There is a flashing LED on the screen of my control unit, what does it mean? How long does it take the Turbine to recharge the battery of my Pure Vision smart controller? You will find the answer to these and many other frequently asked questions in the section below.
C-DIAL & I-DIAL
Controllers programs identify an area or group of solenoid valves. Zones identify a specific solenoid valve.
Irrigation controllers work by irrigation cycles distributed across programs. This means that it is not necessary to set the start time for all zones, but just set the start time of the irrigation cycle (program start time) and the watering times of the zones: the controller will open and close the solenoid valves in sequence.
Days of the week were probably not enabled during programming. Check that the days of the week in the Frequency menu are enabled (they have a frame around the day). If they are not active simply press the '+' key to enable the flashing day and move between days of the week with the 'enter' key.
Check that the two-wire rain sensor is correctly installed and is a normally closed rain sensor (Acqua Click model). If the rain sensor is not present, check that the metal bridge in the terminal compartment at "SENS" is present. In the case of an I-DIAL OUTDOOR control unit, check that the 220V mains connection has been made correctly (this operation requires a qualified electrician) and that an external 220/24 VAC transformer has not been installed.
It's not possible to activate the rain sensor per zone with C-Dial. It's possible to activate the rain sensor per zone from the EXTRA functions with I-Dial.
It's not possible to activate the rain sensor per zone with C-Dial. It's possible to activate the rain sensor per zone from the EXTRA functions with I-Dial.
Check whether 2 start times or 2 schedules are active.
NoAC indicates that the circuit board is not receiving 24Vac. This situation can occur when the fuse or power supply is blown.
