2.1 How to install battery
1). Battery specification: Rechargeable Ni-MH AA battery 1.2v*10
2) Suggest to use rechargeable battery with more than 2300mAh.
Battery box cover
3). Take out battery box, put Ni-MH AA rechargeable battery 1.2v*10 in, pay
attention to +/- sign.

Battery
4). Put the battery box into the original place, put box cover back, screw up the
cover.
3. Power on
Push the red power switch, followed by two beeps, show ANC logo, then into
operation.
After power on, the controller will start to do the following check:
1. Check battery voltage. If the voltage is lower than working voltage, the
controller will turn selves off and wait until the battery is been recharged
above working voltage by the solar panel.
2. Check the connection of moisture sensor. If there is no connection of
moisture sensor, the controller will read the moisture % always at 99%. If no

moisture sensor is been registered, the controller will control valve only.
If not setup Dry/Wet control yet, or the setup is not right, there will be a reminder of
failure. The system will not working until this setup is been fixed. Push 【Menu】
key into adjusting Dry/Wet control, adjusting them until right.
Note: Wet control % must bigger than Dry control %.
4. How to establish wireless mesh network communication
After power been turn on, if moisture sensors and valves are already been registered,
the controller will automatically try to establish wireless communication route to
reach main controller. During searching time, keys been locked, LCD shows
“Searching Comm path”. After route is been established, there will be two beeps,
the controller is ready for work.
If failed to establish the route, the controller will unlock the keys and back after 1
minute. Push 【+】
and 【-】keys to check route, you will see XX, which means no
route been established. Push and hold 【Enter/Save】and 【Exit/Delete】keys at
same time to speed up research, otherwise the controller will try automatically again
and again until done.
After successfully established route, the field controller will send the route
information to main controller and show on the main controller screen as following
that is for sensor.
If the search is not successful, the field controller will keep try every 1 minute.

Note A: For speed up establishment of wireless mesh network, please follow steps
as below:
1. Register all the field controllers first. Then turn off all the field controllers.
2. During search time, the main controller must be in normal work status, not in any
programmable menu, ready to pick all field wireless signals.
3. Take the main controller as center, turn on field controllers which are most near
by, like in the range of 500meter or 1640feet, more or less, then all field controllers
been on start automatically looking for route to communicate with main controller.
After all this layer of controllers found route to main controller, then open second
layer of field controllers in the mesh work, so on until all 4 layers of controllers all
established wireless communication with main controller.
Note B: All field controllers need to found wireless route through relay to
communicate with main controller, the relay route could be 1, 2, or 3 layers. Field
controllers will report route to the main controller, the main controller will save this
information and follow this route to communicate with field controllers. If the field
controllers found the route, but not success to forward this information to main
controller, then the field controller will keep do so every one minute until success.
The main controller will show XX until received that route information.
5. Power off
Push the red power switch it will turn power off.
6. System sleep
During working period, controller will check the voltage of the battery time to time.
When the backup battery voltage is less than 11 V, the controller will turn off all the
valves and pumps, then put self into sleep, waiting for the solar panel to recharge
the battery. When the battery voltage is back to 11.5 V, the controller will
automatically back to normal working status. During sleep period, if the solar panel
still can’t charge up the battery, if the backup battery voltage drops to 10 V, for
protecting the battery from over discharge, the controller will automatically turn

from sleep status to total turn off.
After been total turn off, the solar panel will still charge the battery as long as there
is sun. System will do auto-restart after the battery is recharged back.
7. Manually open/close valves
Can manually on/off valves from main controller.
Or do manual operation directly on the field controller when it is on. Push
key with valve logo to realize manually open/close valves. On LCD screen, there
has 【Manual】→【Auto】→【Manual】→【Auto】, loop operation.
Also can manually open/close valve by using Remoter (Romoter-1) for the
convenience of mainterance.
If user did manual open/close, the valve will keep open/close until main controller
or wireless field controller change the status back to 【Auto】. Or setup timer to
stop.
Remark: Manual operation has priority over Lock out period.
8. Manually open/close valves
On control panel, choose and push 【#1 】, LCD will show “Manual on”，push
again, show “Auto off”，
push again, show “Manual off”；
Push again, show “Auto
off”. So to circle.
User can remote control open/close valves from main controller or cell if you use
3G/WIFI system.

Push 【+】【-】
keys to browse information on LCD. There are three pages, first for
moisture sensor, second for valve status, the third page for other information.
The LCD will turn off after 2 minutes if there is no operation. Push any key Will
light up the LCD.
9. System setup
Tips：
1. When menu item is highlighted, there is sub-menu, press 【Enter 】key into
sub-menu.
2. When digits are highlighted, key in new digits, or push 【+】【-】keys to edit.
3. Push 【Browse/Menu】key into system setup menu, push 【+】【-】or
【Browse/Menu】keys to browse, there are three sub-menus,
[Set up sensor]–
[Set up valve] –
[User help] –
Push 【Enter/Save】key into the menu, push 【Exit/Delete】key to exit the system
menu, or no keys been pushed in 1 minutes, the system will automatically exit from
set up.
9.1 How to install Pressure Switch/Pressure Meter
1. If install water pressure switch/meter for the valve, pull out the related pressure
switch/meter connector from 1MS1V-Solar. Unscrew the screws.
2. Connect the wire from the pressure switch/meter to the connector, tight up the
screw.
Note: The wire can prolong to about 50 meters. Using water proof tape to protect
