Reviewing Program Information

To review the current operating information entered for any program, use the procedure below. If you need to make changes to any portion of a program or the Time/Day setting, refer to the appropriate procedure in the programming section of this manual.

1.Press to select the Program number indicator.

2.Press or as needed to select the desired program number (1 – 16).

3. Press

to select the desired portion of program.

4.Press or or as needed to step through program information.

Special Functions

Note: Station/pump outputs will be momentarily cycled on and off several times during the self test and Initialization procedures. To prevent possible operation of irrigation valves and pump relay, remove the 3.2A fuse or disconnect the field common wire(s) until the test is completed.

Self Test

The Self Test enables the LTC satellite to automatically perform a diagnostic check of all functions, LED indicators, LCD elements, internal circuits and station/pump outputs.

To perform the self test:

1.Turn off power supply switch.

2.Press and hold key down while switching power on. Continue holding key down for 5 seconds, then release.

During the first portion of the test, the displays will momentarily show the following information:

• Software version installed (i.e., version 1.0 = 1 0)

• Number of stations installed (i.e., 16 stations = 16 STA)

Diagnostic code (i.e., 00 000)

Memory chip number (i.e., EE1)

Note: If the memory chip or timer chip is not functioning properly, EE1 Err or CLK Err will be displayed.

The next portion of the test cycles all LED indicators and LCD elements and turns the station/pump outputs on and off.

3. To end self test, press and keys simultaneously. Current time will be displayed (flashing). Press

the

EXIT

STOP

key to stabilize display.

Initialization

Note: Performing an initialization permanently erases all user defined program information from the satellite memory (except current time and day).

To perform an initialization:

1.Turn off power supply switch.

2.Press and hold key down while switching power on. Continue holding key down for 5 seconds, then release.

Note: The satellite will perform the same operation as the Self Test (as detailed above), however during the process all user defined information stored in the memory will be erased.

3. To end initialization process, press and keys simultaneously. Current time will be displayed

(flashing). Press the

EXIT

STOP

key to stabilize display.
