Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of decoders on commercial and municipal properties as an irrigation system control method. States that "decoder systems use a single pair of wires to operate a large number of stations with individual decoders connected along a two-wire path." Highlights "where decoder systems work best" and "how...they work." Explains that one potential benefit is "being able to control and adjust irrigation in the field from a single location." Mentions that "decoders can operate gates, lights and any other security applications on the park site." |
