Press Up or Down to navigate through the menus.
Press Left or Right
to navigate to the next entry field.
Use the Input Dial
to select values when editing.
S01 – Select the station you want to edit in this field. Choose from
Station 01 through the satellite maximum station count of 64
and GMM (Group Multi-Manual).
100% – If weather or some other condition requires irrigation program
modification, it can be easily adjusted by changing the percent adjustment. Station operation
can be reduced to 000% (Off) or increased up to 900%. 100% represents standard operation.
Sched Today – Displays the total scheduled runtime for the current day, which is determined by the day
change time.
Water Today – Displays the actual watering duration for the current day, which is determined by the day
change time
Water Yestr – Displays the actual watering duration for the previous day.
Disable – Disable station operation by selecting Yes from the menu. Disabled stations time out if they
are active, but do not activate the terminals. Resume station operation by s electing No
from the menu. Enabling a station (disable = no) will clear corresponding station alarms that
resulted from over/under current conditions.
Hold Sta: – Station holds do not allow scheduled stations to start, but will allow stations to start manually.
Placing a station on hold will not cancel its activity. Select the hold duration from 01–30 days,
Permanent or None. This option is useful when a specific station needs to be deactivated
without affecting any of the programs.
Is Switch: – Assigns the selected station to a switch. When the switch (station) is activated, the Master
Valve or Pump will not actuate. The output will remain at 24 VAC
Cycles: – Cycles will automatically divide the corresponding station runtime by the number of cycles
and execute each resulting cycles after satisfying the program soak duration. Select from 01
(normal operation) through 04 cycles or you can select Autocycle. When selecting Autocycle,
the Max Cycle duration and Auto Soak duration must be entered. Autocycle will then run the
station up to the Max Cycle duration, wait for the Auto Soak duration to expire, then initiate
another cycle until the total station runtime is completed.
Edit Name: – Assign a name description to the station. The naming format is XX-AA-YY, where XX
represents the golf course hole number, AA represents the area description acronym and
YY represents the sprinkler number within the area. By following the naming format, you can
easily figure out where and what area the station is watering.
Area Description Acronym Examples
GR = Greens DR = Driving Range TE = Tee CH = Club House FW = Fairways
LA = Landscape RF = Rough PG = Putting Green AP = Approaches MS = Misc.
Last On – Displays the station current draw from the last activation.
Nominal – Displays the recorded nominal current value. This is the value that the Lynx Smart Satellite
uses to determine an over current or undercurrent condition during station operation.
Tol +/– – Displays the current tolerance value. When the station’s current reaches above the nominal
value plus the tolerance, it is considered an over current condition. When the station’s current
reaches below the nominal value minus the tolerance, it is considered an undercurrent
condition. The tolerance can be modified by using the Input Dial
to increase or
decrease the value. Tolerance may be set to 0.04 amps up to 0.9 amps.
Over tol – Displays the over current value during over current condition. It also displays the time and date
it has occurred.
