    BaseManager: Setting Up Your Controller

    PDF es:

    1.  Make sure that the irrigation controller you want to work with is displayed in the BaseManager footer. To select a different controller, click the Menu icon 1620692756053-1620692756053.png in the upper-left corner of the BaseManager page, and then click Sites and Controllers. Continue drilling down until you can select the desired controller. 

    2.  Make sure the zone biCoder that you want to assign is connected to the two-wire path of the irrigation controller displayed in the BaseManager footer.

    3.  Position the cursor on the Devices tab, and then click Zones in the menu that displays.

    4.  Click Assign biCoders. BaseManager searches for the biCoders that are connected to your controller.

    5.  In the Serial Number column of the Zone ID row, click the drop-down arrow and then click the serial number of the biCoder that you want to assign to the zone.

    6.  Click in the Description column and type a description that makes the zone easy to identify.

    Note

    Limit the number of characters in the Description to 32 characters (BaseStation 1000) or 42 characters (BaseStation 3200). If you enter a longer description, the controller will automatically shorten it, and then pass the new version back to BaseManager.


    7.  Repeat steps 4 - 6 until you have assigned all zones.

    8.  Configure the zone settings. Refer to Updating Zone Details.
