Operating Specifications
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall have four inde-
pendent output modes to interface with virtual-
ly any irrigation controller.
ET ENABLE
The valve common from the sprinkler controller
shall be wired to the common input terminal.
The connection shall be to the normally closed
contacts. When watering is not needed, the
relays shall be opened to interrupt the common
circuit for valve groups A and/or B.
ET ENABLE A THEN B
A programming feature that modifies the ET
Enable output method to restrict valve group A
and B watering to separate days. In the event
the irrigation schedule exceeds the watering
window for one day, alternating days shall allow
watering to be spread over 2 days. Valves con-
nected to valve group A shall water one day,
then valve group B waters the next day. All other
program features shall be the same.
ET & RAIN PULSE
ET and rain data shall be passed to a compati-
ble host irrigation controller or control system
using a “pulse” method. A dry contact switch
closure shall represent 0.01" of ET or rain. The
relays shall be normally open.
ET PULSE AND WEATHER INTERRUPT
ET data shall be passed to a compatible
host irrigation controller or control system
using a “pulse” method. A dry contact switch
closure shall represent 0.01" of ET. The relays
shall be normally open.
A second relay shall provide a sensor interrupt
to prevent watering if any one of the three
weather interrupt conditions occurs: rain,
freezing conditions, or high wind. The relay
shall be normally closed.
Programmable schedule options
Available watering days can be limited to
accommodate site needs. The look-ahead fea-
ture may allow watering the day before a non-
available watering day.
1. ODD day watering (per program)
2. EVEN day watering (per program)
3. CUSTOM (weekly schedule)
4. ODD 31st off (per program)

Technical Specifications
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall be a control
device for a sprinkler controller, and shall be
adaptable to most sprinkler controllers. It shall
be programmable to site-specific conditions to
manage landscape watering based on hourly
weather conditions.
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall be programmable
to the required Signal Provider Code in order to
receive messages from the Weather Reach
Signal Provider (WRSP). The user shall be able
to enter a weather region code number that
corresponds to the desired weather station data
source operated by the WRSP.
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall calculate ET
values using ASCE Standardized equation based
on weather station input including wind speed,
temperature, relative humidity, and solar
energy. Effective rainfall shall be subtracted
from ET to calculate a moisture balance.
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall interrupt the 24
VAC common wire suspending irrigation
frequency based on user-selectable irrigation
amounts.
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall be mounted in
close proximity to the irrigation controller; in
applications requiring outdoor mounting, the
ET Manager shall be mounted in a weather-
proof enclosure.
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall operate at 12 to 30
Volts AC or 12 to 35 Volts DC @ 0.22 Amp max
and be capable of withstanding a maximum
contact load of 4 Amp @ 30 Volts AC maximum.
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall have an
integrated override button to permit
maintenance and manual watering to occur.
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall have a factory
supplied 9-volt alkaline battery to maintain
clock time and program memory during a
power outage.
The ET Manager (ETMi) shall have program-
mable settings and records shall be stored in
non-volatile memory and be able to be recalled.
The Rain Bird ET Manager Series shall be sold
by Rain Bird Corporation.
