Stand alone hydraulic controller or network satellite for golf courses
The Aurora Pedestal-Mount Hydraulic Controller/Satellite delivers the ultimate in power, ease and value. Aurora is designed to function as a stand-alone hydraulic controller or can manage an entire satellite network without a central computer. In fact, each Aurora controller/satellite has the power of a central computer for unprecedented control and unparalleled value. The controller/satellite can be operated by a handheld remote or an Aurora Lite, Enterprise or Professional Central Control System.	HIGH PERFORMANCE Absolute control of station outputs and hydraulic actuators in a single enclosure. Can be used in hybrid applications where electric and hydraulic stations are required. Built-in microprocessor and true two-way communication give Aurora the power to control an entire satellite network without a central computer. Monitors, stores and shares data from multiple sensors across the network. Uses hardwire, telephone and radio communications on the same network. Handheld radios control field controller/satellites without a central computer and software. 128 independent programs per day allow calendar control of each station in any sequence, with multiple repeats and pauses. Powerful water budgeting from 0-200%. Weather station monitoring for automatic ET-adjusted irrigation schedule. Superior protection from lightning for all stations.	Pedestal accommodates 48 station outputs (nine simultaneously) with up to 32 hydraulic actuators and 16 electric stations for electric valve control. True two-way communication between satellites with or without central present; central can receive alarm and other messages sent by satellites without polling from the central. Operates lighting, fountains, pumps, integrates to storm sensing equipment, etc. EASY TO USE Multilingual instructions (including Spanish). Bold LCD with step-by-step menus. COST EFFECTIVE Operates as a stand-alone controller or on a satellite network with or without a central. Hardwire-ready configuration allows for quick and inexpensive installation. Intelli-Sat™ radio technology is already FCC-narrowband compliant. Digital ready; integrates new technologies without replacing equipment.
