Rain Bird

ET Manager Series - Installation and Operation Manual 77

Rain Interrupt 24 Hours: Rainfall over the last 24

hours that is at or above the Rain Interrupt 24 Hour set-

ting will cause a Weather Interrupt. The weather inter-

rupt is cancelled once the total rainfall in the last 24

hours drops below the Rain 24 Hour setting.

Rain Interrupt 1 Hour: Rainfall over the last hour that

is at or above the Rain Interrupt 1 Hour setting will

cause a rain interrupt. The weather interrupt is can-

celled once the total rainfall in the last hour drops

below the Rain 1 Hour setting.

Rain Region: Like the weather region number, a rain

region number represents an area where customers

share data. Within an area, one on-site tipping bucket

rain gauge is used to share localized rain data among

ET Manager customers, allowing for a more accurate

representation of local rain. Your Weather Reach Signal

Provider (WRSP) broadcasts rain region data.

Rain Source: The rain source is the source of rain data

for the ET Manager. Rain data comes from the weather

signal, from an optional rain gauge, or from a rain

region.

Rain Tip Input Failure: Your ET Manager can use real-

time rain data collected from an optional on-site rain

gauge. If you are using a rain gauge to collect rain data

and “Rain Tip Input Failure” appears on the Home

screen, your ET Manager is indicating a problem with

the Rain Tip wire terminal, installation, or operation of

the on-site rain gauge.

Restore Defaults: If ET Manager’s programmed set-

tings have been saved as default settings, and the cur-

rent settings are changed, by restoring defaults the orig-

inal saved default settings are restored. If settings were

not saved as defaults, restoring defaults restores the fac-

tory default settings.

Root Depth: The soil reservoir capacity is directly relat-

ed to plant root depth. Deeper roots increase the

amount of water available to the plants. To promote a

deep healthy root system, best horticultural practices

recommend less frequent, deep watering. Use a shovel

or soil probe to determine root depth.

Saturation Allowance: The amount of rain it takes to

saturate the soil after satisfying the Irrigation Amount

before run-off occurs. Unique Saturation Allowance

settings can be made for Valve Group A and Valve

Group B, and are typically programmed as half the

Irrigation Amount.

Save Defaults: The current ET Manager settings can be

saved. Once saved, you can restore saved settings if set-

tings have been changed incorrectly by using Restore

Defaults.

Serial Number: The serial number of your ET Manager

is displayed on the LCD contrast screen and is visible

under the terminal cover on the left side of your ET

Manager.

Set Signal Provider Code: If the attention message,

“Set Signal Provider Code” appears on the Home

screen, your ET Manager has been installed, but not

programmed with the appropriate Signal Provider

Code. The Signal Provider Codes can be accessed from

www.rainbird.com/etmanager and the ET Manager

Scheduler.

Signal Crop Coefficient (or Signal Kc): Crop coeffi-

cients are used to modify ET to meet the specific needs

of the landscape

The Weather Reach Signal Provider

(WRSP) includes a crop coefficient value in the weather

signal. You can decide to “Use” or “Ignore” this adjust-

ed value to adjust ET in the Advanced Settings in

Irrigation Control.

Signal Provider Code: Your ET Manager must be pro-

grammed to receive information from your specific

Weather Reach Signal Provider (WRSP). A Signal

Provider Code is unique for your WRSP and is neces-

sary for your ET Manager to receive a weather signal.

The code consists of 10 different numbers and these 10

numbers are labeled A-J. The Signal Provider Codes

can be accessed from www.rainbird.com and the ET

Manager Scheduler program.

Site Assessment: A site assessment should be complet-

ed to determine site-specific conditions which affect

programmable settings in ET Manager and sprinkler

controller.
