Rain Bird Central Control Systems                 

MAXICOM If you’re in charge of multi-site commercial or industrial irrigation, you know the challenges of water management. And, if you’re like other irrigation professionals, you’ve wanted a “smart” irrigation system that lets you control multiple sites to your exact specifications. Maxicom2 makes irrigation management a simple, accurate, and labor-efficient task. It’s a central control system that helps you achieve superior water management effectiveness – at up to hundreds of locations. Maxicom2 is ideal for municipalities, school districts, universities, and park and recreation departments.
IQ Smaller commercial and even residential sites can also receive the benefits of central control with the IQ system. IQ is the perfect tool for the Landscape Maintenance Contractor, Property Manager, or Public Agency managing multiple, single irrigation controller sites. IQ is a modular, simple to program and install, cost-effective system that can grow over time with your needs. IQ lets you do anything you could do standing at the controller from the computer, including manual operation, program adjustment, and even controlling the dial and switch settings. It has powerful water management features like ET Adjust, Seasonal Adjust, and Cycle+Soak™ to help you save water while you’re saving time.

SiteControl

If you need powerful central control for a large, single contiguous site, SiteControl provides dynamic map-based control and real-time communication between the field and central computer. With customized site graphics, multiple mapping options, and the ability to “see” the placement and real-time operation of individual controllers, decoders, valves, and sprinklers, SiteControl makes controlling your landscape irrigation fast and intuitive. Plus, the system is modular, allowing you to invest in only what your need and expand at a later date. Offering both satellite controllers and two-wire decoder solutions, SiteControl provides unmatched features and expandability. It is ideal for college or corporate campuses, housing communities, cemeteries, sports fields, resorts and hotels.
MDC2 MDC2 is a single-site, two-wire decoder system offering unmatched expandability in a cost-effective system that provides fast and easy installation. High flow shut-off, alarms, sensor inputs, modular expandability, and diagnostic tools are just some of the features of the system. Programming software allows you to remotely download the irrigation schedules from the controller, review system data, make changes, and then upload the new schedules. MDC2 is ideal for corporate sites, apartments or condominiums, median strips, and other commercial site applications.
Central Control Hardware
CCU Series CCU Cluster Control Units serve as an interface between the central computer and ESP-SAT Satellite Controllers on the Maxicom2 system.
TWI Two-Wire Satellite Interface Series TWI Two-Wire Interface units serve as an interface between the central computer and the sites ESP-SAT Satellites Controllers on the SiteControl system.
SDI/LDI Two-Wire Decoder Interface Series SDI/LDI Two-Wire Decoder Interface units serve as an interface between the central computer and the sites FD-TURF Two-Wire Decoders on the SiteControl system.
