Rain Bird RASTER

Station Valve Testing

After testing the master valves, the RASTER
automatically tests each valve station, in numerical
order, from lowest to highest.
1. The display shows the valve's operating condition
(OPEN or SHORT), followed by the station
number (up to 40 stations, depending on
controller model). This sample display indicates
there is a short on valve station number 4.
2. The RASTER TM displays the condition of each valve
being tested for 10 seconds, and then moves to
the next valve. You can press "MAN/START/ADV"
(or any other magenta button) at any time to
advance to the next station to be tested.
NOTE: Any controller station that does not have a
valve connected to it will display an OPEN signal.
For example, if you have a 12-station controller and
only have stations 1 through 10 connected to valves,
stations 11 and 12 will show "OPEN" on the
TM
RASTER . This is normal and does not indicate any
problem with the controller or system valves.

3. If the master valves and all station valves pass the
RASTER TM , the display flashes "PASS" for 10
seconds.
4. If the RASTER TM detected a problem on the master
valves or any station valve, the display flashes
"CHECK" for three seconds and then displays the
valve's problem condition (OPEN or SHORT) and
station number or master valve.
Each problem valve will flash in the display for
five seconds. Press "MAN START/ADV"
time to display the next problem valve detected.
Any valve displaying "OPEN" or "SHORT" should
be checked for field wiring or other circuit
problems. See "Troubleshooting Open and
Shorted Valve Circuits" on page 11 for more
information.
