The NLP will automatically limit station run via Hydraulic (must be set) or Station limits (default 10) in the controller. To limit station run in a program, use a setting called Wait Completion. Wait Completion can be enabled for a single step or all steps and limits a program run to one or a select few stations to run simultaneously.
A step flagged for wait completion will prevent the program from running until all stations up to the flagged step have finished their runtime.
Run 1 Zone at a Time in a Program
- Navigate to
→ Irrigation Controller → Programs - Click
on the relevant program - Select STEPS
- In the header, select
next to Wait completion in the header - You will see a √ on all steps. Stations will run 1 at a time.
Run >1 Zone Simultaneously
- Navigate to
→ Irrigation Controller → Programs - Click
on the relevant program - Select STEPS
- Click on the step you want to
- Enable Wait completion by toggling
to
- You will now see a √ on the step
- Repeat steps 1-6 to continue for additional steps.
In the example below, the program would run for 59 minutes:
- Station 1 - 10 minutes
- Station 2 - 30 minutes
- Stations 4, 6, 7 & 10 - 4 minutes
- Station 91 - 5 minutes
- Stations 1, 2, 3 & 4 - 10 minutes
