Programming The Controller – 4
Number of Stations
The TouchNet must know how many stations are in the
satellite. Touch the box next to STATIONS and make your entry
from the pop-up keypad.
If the number of stations is not an even multiple of 8, the
TouchNet will round the number up to the nearest multiple
of 8, to a maximum of 48.
For example, if 44 stations were entered, TouchNet would
round to 48 because the OSMAC satellite is available in
8-station increments only.
Maximum Simultaneous Programs
Each program runs one satellite station at a time. The number
entered here limits the number of programs (stations) the
satellite can run at the same time to prevent exceeding its
electrical output capacity.
Touch the box next to MAX SIM PGMS and make your entry
using the pop-up keypad.
Flow Zone Assignment
The last item on the Satellite screen is the Flow Zone number
assignment. By default, the satellite is assigned to Flow Zone 1.
Assign the satellite to the Flow Zone where most of its stations
are located. The entry you make will become the Flow Zone
default number and carry over when stations are assigned
during the satellite stations setup procedure.
Touch the box next to FLOW ZONE and make your entry using
the pop-up keypad.
When assigning a satellite to a Flow Zone, make sure the flow
capacity of the Flow Zone is equal to or greater than the flow
requirements of any station controlled by the satellite. If it is
not, the station will not operate, its run time will be set to "0",
and a system alarm will be generated.
You will need to repeat these steps for all satellites in your

system. Use the

remaining satellite name list.
Do not use the Satellite # box to select a satellite. If this is
done, it will change the address of the satellite.
