The master module (shown in the product image at top) is the first 8-zone module in a UPB
installation and the only one that connects directly to a PIM and a 24VAC
transformer. Additional modules may be daisy chained for those large
installations.

Three Rain8UPB modules (24 zones) in mounting rack,
connected to UPB PIM and transformer
|
There is a single RS232 connection between the UPB PIM and the initial or Master Rain8.
The 24VAC power and network communications are transferred from master to
slave-to-slave etc.
The network connection for the slave units is an 8 conductor RJ45. Each
slave has a pair of these modular jacks to pass on data and power to the
next one in a daisy chain. Each slave also has a RS232 connection that is
used only to assign the address and setup default run timers during the
initial configuration. |
MCS Software:
The very latest in smart irrigation, this software runs on a PC.
Environmental data is automatically down loaded from the web to allow an
informed irrigation schedule that is constantly modified by real world
weather data.
Wouldn't you like to delay irrigation until the wind stops blowing so your
water goes to the lawn rather than the street?

Please note: The Rain8upb requires a UPB PIM to connect to a UPB power line network to function,
which is sold separately.
