TWIG®

The TWIG (shown on a 800 Series Control Valve) is central to the wireless system. This device turns low voltage DC latching solenoids on and off at the command of the TD200 Controller.

• Turns low voltage DC latching solenoids on and off at the command of the TD200 controller
• Proprietary “Nelson” high powered radio. Adjustable between 902 and 924 MHz.
• Three TWIGs available:

  TWIG-1. Operates one solenoid.

  TWIG-2. Operates two solenoids, independently.

  TWIG-4. Operates up to 4 solenoids, independently.

• Power source: Two D-cell batteries, good for one irrigation season — shipped with TWIG.
• Utilizes a proprietary “deep sleep” cycle technique to minimize power consumption.
• Two antenna options:

  Dua l internal antennas (standard).

  Provides diversity for better reception, and protection from damage. Use where line of site is optimal.

• External antenna (optional). Use to improve signal reception when TWIG does not have good line-of-sight, and to extend range of communication.
• The TWIG is packaged in a rugged, field ready water resistant box. Ag tough!
• Joining a TWIG to a network is effortless and quick, either on setup of a new system, or the addition of a new TWIG to an existing network.
• TWIG is capable of running a manual solenoid test to check solenoid.
• Each TWIG has a factory assigned ID #.
