Rain8upb - Professional version of our UPB sprinkler controller

Much like the original original Rain8upb ,
but with following additions:
  • Supports both LINK and DIRECT control modes.
  • Compatible with all Generation 2 (G2) or earlier UPB systems.
  • ON - OFF control of each valve at the Rain8 module itself, no need to run back to a PC to turn a zone on (or off).
  • Each zone has a LED to indicate if it is running or idle.
  • All valve wires and connections are protected against lighting surges.
  • All RS232 and network connections protected against ESD and lighting.
  • Each of the 8 outputs to the valves is protected against overloading by a self-resetting electronic fuse.
