Remote VALVE Control

Probe Schedule® can create irrigation schedules based on moisture status, crop phenology and weather forecast and create instructions to remotely access Valve Controllers to open and close valves. Probe Schedule can work with Nelson Twig, Bermad and WiseConn.
A variety of plans can b generated such as:

  • Fixed time

  • Optimal time – to fill each profile according to it’s specific needs

  • Pulse irrigation

  • Separate cooling system

The preferred setup is where a plc is connected to the off line irrigation controller (such as Nelson Twig). PS generates the schedule and hands it over to the plc that controls the valves (and pumps and flow meters as needed).
