Irricad

I am doing a unusually shaped landscape design that requires me to individually place sprinklers and valves. In doing this I am also manually selecting the zones for flow and location.
This all calculates well with no problems.
What I would like to be able to access is the "Management Report" data for this type of input. At present the management report does not show at all, no zone area or precipitation rate etc.
Can I define the manually input zones as Spray Entities so that I can access the management data? How can I do this?

Hi Jim,

You can manually create an "irrigation area" by using Zone|Area. Make sure the Area lassos do not overlap.

The Area tool has two functions:-
- Existing sprinklers can be made to water within the lasso which is a great help for automatically orientating part circle or "variable" sprinklers. Sprinklers added to the Area afterwards are automatically orienated unless they are "Fixed" arc sprinklers.
- Specify the volume of water required, for example 5mm per day or 35mm per week. The Management reports are now populated with Area data including the required run time to apply the specified amount of water.

Thanks Jo, works a treat
