More Info
|
The Irrigander 8 Expander is comprised of two modules: an Encoder that is installed close to the sprinkler controller; a Decoder that is installed close to the valves to be controlled. The field control wires attached to the irrigation controller's output controlling the valves to be expanded are disconnected and 3 field wires are connected to the 3 outputs on the Irrigander 8 Expander's Encoder. The 8 inputs to the Encoder are connected to any available 8 irrigation controller outputs. The 3 field wires plus the system wide common are connected to the Decoder and the outputs from the decoder are connected to the valves to be controlled. With more than 4 field wires, the Irrigander 8 Expander will use 3 field wires and the system common to control 8 valves allowing the additional wires to be used for additional valves.
