e EVOLUTION
®
AG controller provides a diagnostic function to check whether the system’s valves are properly functioning. When
activated, the controller will test each available valve. EVOLUTION
®
AG controller will display dashes (– –) for valves that have not been
tested. It will display the current level in amps. OVERCRNT will be displayed for valves drawing above the recommended range, SHORT
for valves that have a grounded circuitry, or OPEN if no current is measured.
Since all valve outputs will activate for about 3 seconds during diagnostics, it is recommended that all Fert Pumps (not relays) be
disconnected, or the fertilizer pathway temporarily blocked.
