TheLEIT-2ETweatherbasedwirelessirrigationcontrolsystemcomprisesoftheLEIT-2ETweatherbasedtwo-stationambientlight(solar)poweredirrigationcontrollerwitharainsensorconnection,theLEITRC2EThandset,andtheLEITWWSorLEITWWSEambientlight(solar)poweredweatherstations.TheLEITRC2EThandsetisanadvancedandcosteffectivewirelessdevicethatisusedtocommunicatewithupto99LEIT-2ETsolarpoweredcontrollers,operatingupto198valves,fromadistanceofupto350feet(100m)lineofsight.TheLEITRC2EThandsethasalargeLCDdisplayandsophisticated,intuitive,icon-basedsoftware.SiteinformationenteredintotheLEITRC2EThandsetisdownloadedtotheLEIT-2ETcontroller,andwithhourlydatareceivedfromtheLEITWWSorLEITWWSEwirelesssolarpoweredweatherstations,theLEIT-2ETcontrollercalculatesthedailylocalmicroclimateevapotranspiration(ET).Thefinalresultisusedforadailyadjustmentoroverrideofthecurrentscheduledirrigationprogram.AllLEIT-2ETcontrollerfunctionsarecontrolledandreviewedbytheLEITRC2EThandset.Afterinstallation,nofurthervisitstothecontrollerarerequired.

IMPORTANT: Communication between the LEIT RC2ET handset, the LEIT-2ET controllers, and the LEIT WWS or LEIT WWSE weather station is automatically limited to daylight hours when there is sufficient light energy. Longer bright light days will enable the user to communicate over longer parts of the day.
