What's New

WEATHERSENSE

This feature searches the internet collecting weather data, specifically ET values from multiple weather sources, and provides local weather information to nearly any Calsense customer in the United States. Its available in the latest version of Command Center 1 software.

During weather sharing, the CommServer connects to the Internet and retrieves ET and/or rain data for the last 24 hours from the closest weather station to your location. Then, it's shared with each of the controllers youve selected. For each controller, you add either a street address or its latitude and longitude.

Weathersense is offered as a no-charge service. The utilization and sharing of weather data through the internet to the Calsense irrigation controllers is another way we give our customers a Water Management System That Works.

GIS Mapping

Calsense now offers a new integrated GIS Viewer included in the latest version of the Calsense Command Center software. This feature visually represents a user’s controllers on a map using existing GIS (Geographic Information System) data. Highly customizable, this feature shows the status of each controller including mainline breaks and flow alerts through the use of color-coded icons. Additional information about each is also available via a built-in legend and by right-clicking controllers on the map. Contact us for more details.

Enhanced -F Option

The -F controller option is the ability to interface with up to three flow meters and master valves wired to a single controller. Now with new software engineering the -F option in conjunction with a bypass manifold install, the controller is able to read and monitor low flowing station zones on a large mainline. This feature dynamically manages flow through the appropriate size flow meter using actual flow rates, not expected flow rates, providing accurate flow monitoring, specific station alerts and detailed water usage reports.

Featured Project

Georgia Tech........LEEDing the Way - Four years ago I was tasked by our Housing Facilities Director, Fran Gillis, to analyze the irrigation system and discover ways to save water. Calsense was the product that best met our needs after researching all the major companies. Tom Shannon with Ewing Irrigation and Dave Rippe, the local Calsense Field Technician, helped set up a test site at the Crecine Residence Hall. Moisture sensors were used for wet areas, along with an ET gauge and rain bucket to monitor the weather. Listening to feedback, Calsense upgraded the ET2000e... Read More
