ACTION DURING POWER FAILURE<br />

If the LCD is blank, there is no 230V power input. No <strong>irrigation</strong> will take place.<br />

However, the ITC has an electronic memory component that will maintain the<br />

<strong>irrigation</strong> programs for at least 24 hours.<br />

If the power outage lasts longer, the programs are lost. When power is restored,<br />

each valve is automatically assigned to program A. A backup program will begin<br />

operating 8 hours after power is restored. Each valve will open for 10 minutes<br />

every 24 hours. It is then necessary to reprogram your ITC.<br />

SHORT CIRCUIT "ERR" DISPLAY<br />

The controller has a diagnostic circuit breaker which indicates which valve has an<br />

electrical overload/short circuit. If the controller detects a short circuit on a valve,<br />

the screen will briefly go blank and the valve will stop operating during 20<br />

seconds. Then the valve automatically resumes operation. If the short circuit is<br />

confirmed, the valve completely stops operating and the error message appears.<br />

The problem valve number is displayed and blinks along with "ERR" until any key<br />

is pressed. The controller will continue to water with all other operable valves. The<br />

same sequence will occur until the short circuit is repaired.<br />

If a short circuit occurs on the pump start relay or the master valve (terminal P),<br />

the same display appears. However, in this case, all <strong>irrigation</strong> is stopped until the<br />

problem is fixed. Short circuits most often occur in the valve solenoid or in the wire<br />

connectors to the valve wires.<br />

ERASE ALL PROGRAMS<br />

CAUTION! : make sure you want to do this. This will erase all the data stored in the ITC (programs and dates). Use a<br />

metallic object (screwdriver, paperclip, etc.) to touch the 2 rectangular metal plates under "reset" to the right of the<br />

terminal strip. Maintain the contact until the screen becomes blank. This screen will then appear.<br />
