RS-1 IOT Sprinkler Demonstration Kit Control Panel Guide

The Control Panel enables edits of the RS-1 configuration. RS- configuration is completely established in the First Use Setup Screen, however you may wish to change certain parameters later.

Since the First Use setup screen disappears after several hours of use, the Control Panel is the only method of changing parameters in a previously configured RS-1.

Global Multiplier

Global Multiplier causes a “Multiplier” to be applied to all watering that occurs between GM Start (date and time) and GM End (date and time).

The Global Multiplier is normally set to one.

It can be increased to apply a greater amount of water in hot weather or a lesser amount of water in cold weather.

It can also be set to 0 to effectively deny watering between GM Start and GM End.

Global Multiplier, GM Start and GM End can be set manually or by Cloud Control Network Services.

If you are using Cloud Control, you may observe changes to all three of these parameters as Cloud Control modulates the watering schedule according to the prevailing weather.
