by the user. Water flow rate processing applies only to programmed and enabled cycles. Once a cycle
has been reprogrammed, water flow rate processing begins anew with the averaging of the flow rate.
3.6.5. Threshold Response
Monitoring inputs threshold check is made immediately before the beginning of each programmed cycle.
When the temperature threshold is crossed, and extended watering is enabled, the netAQUA extends the
cycle duration by the programmed amount.
When the humidity threshold is crossed, and shortened watering is enabled, the netAQUA shortens the
cycle duration by the programmed amount.
When rainfall is detected and rainfall sensor processing is enabled, all automatic watering is cancelled for
the duration of rainfall sensor active output. When rainfall is detected while a programmed cycle is
running, the cycle is aborted.
3.6.6. Monitoring Input Threshold Crossing Notification
Monitoring input threshold crossing indication is provided on the Status page of the Browser Interface, in
the Notifications section, for all enabled and functioning (not in alarm) monitoring inputs. Information that
is displayed depends on the Monitoring input threshold that has been crossed, and all crossed thresholds
are displayed. The possible messages are:
- Local high temperature threshold crossed
- Local low temperature threshold crossed
- Internet high temperature threshold crossed
- Internet low temperature threshold crossed
- Internet high humidity threshold crossed
- Rain detected.
In addition, a summary message is provided about the status of the upcoming next watering cycle, which
can be modified as a result of a monitoring input threshold crossing. The possible status messages are:
- Scheduled to run as programmed
- May be extended due to high temperature
- May be shortened due to high humidity
- May be cancelled due to low temperature
- May be cancelled due to rain delay.
Only the overriding status message is shown. For example if both the Internet high humidity threshold is
crossed and rain detected conditions exist, the only status message that is shown is “May be cancelled
due to rain delay.”
3.7. Ethernet Interfaces
There are two Ethernet interfaces provided in the netAQUA:
1. Ethernet interface A, a 10/100 BaseT via an RJ-45 connector
2. Ethernet interface B, an 802.11b/g/n WiFi via an on-board circuit.
On the non-WiFi version of the netAQUA, only Ethernet interface A is provided.
3.8. netAQUA Browser Interface
The netAQUA Browser Interface is provided that can be viewed and driven via a standard web browser,
such a Microsoft Internet Explorer or Firefox.
