ESP-LX Plus Site Satellite Series
Maxicom^2® Satellite

The ESP-LX Plus Site Satellite provides Maxicom²-based central control for sites that only require the valve capacity of a single controller. Powerful enough for large sites yet flexible for smaller applications.

Features

• Combines the power of a Cluster Control Unit (CCU) with the capabilities of an ESP-LX Plus controller.
• Stores and executes schedule instructions from the central controller
• Includes 2 sensor inputs - no decoders required
• Operates up to 24 stations
• Communicates with central controller via telephone, hardwire, radio or fiber-optic cable
• Available in plastic wall mount or module kit to upgrade existing ESP-LX Plus controllers

Stand-Alone Features

• Four independent programs (A-, B-, C-, and Ddrip), with six start times each.
• 365-day calendar with leap year intelligence for one-time date and time setting.
• Non-volatile program memory maintains user’s program during a power outage independent of the battery backup.
• Removable, battery-programmable panel.
• Four day-cycle modes (CUSTOM, CYCLICAL, ODD, or EVEN) selectable for each program for maximum flexibility.
• Event-Day-Off option to set any day of the month as a non-watering day for all programs.
• Programmable Delay-Between-Stations provides time for slow-closing valves to turn off completely.
• Start time stacking prevents hydraulic overload.
• Variable test program for system operational testing.
• Water budgeting by program from 0 to 300% in 1% increments.
• Programmable rain delay enables system to stay off for specified period with an autorestart.
• Master valve/pump start circuit, programmable by station, for optimal irrigation control.
• D-drip program can run simultaneously with program A, B or C to maximize hydraulic capacity and minimize watering time.
• Diagnostic circuit breaker and LED fault indicator identify electrical shorts, skip shorted stations, and continue irrigation cycle.
• Includes easy-to-mount, heavy-duty plastic cabinet with key-lockable door and swing-out, quick release face panel, as well as all 120v internal wiring (no junction box needed).
• Rapid Station Test Routine (RASTER) enables the controller to diagnose and troubleshoot field wiring, solenoid, and controller problems.
• Special Fuse Circuitry detects and displays when a fuse has blown.

Stand-Alone Operating Specifications

• Station timing: 0 to 12 hours for all stations (0 to 20 hours with water budgeting); 0 to 120 minutes selectable in 1-minute increments; above 120 minutes selectable in 10-minute increments.
