Step 3: Set Up The Control System - Toro SitePro 2000 Getting Started Manual

STEP 3:
SET UP THE CONTROL SYSTEM
Next, you need to create the database
that defines the control system: groups of
satellites, individual satellites and the
stations assigned to specific satellites.
Define satellite groups (Setup >
Control System > Groups)
Define groups of satellites that allow
you to control similar areas of your
site at the same time. For example,
you may want to create a group
named "Front 9" or "Tees." (If you
have Central Decoder System hardware,
you may combine DIUs.) If desired, you may choose to control the system with only
one defined group of satellites.
For satellites to be assigned to the same group, they must have the same method
of communication (i.e., wire, telephone or radio).
Define satellites (Setup > Control System > Satellites)
After defining groups, you can assign satellites to groups and enter individual satellite
information.
The satellite numbers entered here must correspond with the unique address set
at the satellite in the field.
Define stations (Setup > Control System > Stations)
Assign stations to specific satellites and enter individual station information. Use the
"copy" and "paste" buttons to enter repetitive station information quickly.
It is not necessary to enter information in all columns of the station database
table. However, you must enter a station number, name, percent adjustment,
nozzle flow, number of heads and the flow rate for the station in order for
SitePro to perform properly. Other data may be added to optimize SitePro. (For more
information, refer to Defining Stations in the on-line Help screens.)
