Appendix D: Setting Up a FLOW MAX System
Participant Satellite, directly connected to shared device/s
(Figure D-1, Satellite 1-1)
1. At the participant satellite, go to Setup-->Flow Max.
2. Be sure FLOW MAX Participant is checked.
3. Select the devices that are connected to this clock. In this example, that would be
Master Valve 1 and Flow Sensor 1.
4. Go to Setup-->Flow-->Flow Sensors.
Enter K and OFFSET values.
For further information on K VALUE and OFFSET,
refer to Appendix B: Flow Meters.
5. Be sure Include in Total Flow is set to YES.
Repeat the programming steps above for any remaining satellites as necessary
(as in, not part of this example).
Once all the participants have been programmed with the Flow Max configuration
data:
• Program each satellite with the desired irrigation program(s).
Insure the program(s) have been set up properly for usage of a Master Valve
and/or Pump.
• Flow limits must be established for all stations in the system.
Flow limits can be established using the Learn Flow/Current feature.
This completes the Setup procedure for the satellite controllers.
