Reading Monthly Water Totals
1. Go to Reports & Diagnostics-->Reports-->Water Usage.
2. The monthly water totals indicate how much water has passed through a flow
sensor in a given month.
In order for flow values to be tracked, the "Devices Connected To this Clock"
option must be selected under the Setup -> FLOWMAX.
Flow Limit Violations
When a Flow Limit Violation is Detected
Upon detection of a flow limit violation, DXi performs the following actions:
1. Terminate irrigation
• For a faulty station, immediate termination of irrigation for that station. The
program will automatically advance to the next station in the program.
• If a main line fault is detected, immediate termination of all irrigation programs.
The Normally Open (N.O.) Master Valve terminal is energized with 24 VAC.
Any and all future automatic irrigation will not occur until this warning is cleared
from the controller.
• If the monthly watering allocation has been exceeded, immediate termination of
all irrigation on a per program basis occurs.
• If an unscheduled flow condition is detected, the Normally Open (N.O.) Master
Valve terminal is energized with 24 VAC. Any and all future automatic irrigation
will not occur until this warning is cleared from the controller.
2. Entry of the problem in the Warning/Report list.
3. All faulty stations are added to a "condemned" station list. No watering will occur
until the problem is corrected.
To remove a station from the condemned list, delete the corresponding alert.
