Rain8upb

The Rain8upb is a modular 8-zone sprinkler controller module that can be an integral component of any UPB™ installation. It is capable of driving standard 24VAC irrigation valves directly.

The master module 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 large installations.

The Rain8upb has the following features:

• Turn on or off each zone individually
  
  
• Turn off all zones on all modules
  
  
• Get the current status of any zone
  
  
• Optional default timer for each zone to prevent over watering
  
  
• Optional dry contact input for rain sensor or pulse type flow meter
  
  

Rain8net

The Rain8net is a modular 8-zone sprinkler controller module that can be controlled over the Internet by any computer or other control device. It is capable of driving standard 24VAC irrigation valves directly.

Additional modules may be daisy chained to provide control and 24 VAC power to as many as 2040 irrigation zones from a single COM or USB port.

The Rain8net has the following features:

• Turn on or off each zone individually
  
  
• Turn off all zones on a specific module
  
  
• Turn off all zones on all modules
  
  
• Get the current status of all zones
  
  
• Default run timer for each zone to prevent over watering
  
  
• Up to 1000 feet between Rain8 and controller.
