Introduction

The Toro Battery Controller - Waterproof (TBC

WP) controller is the most versatile battery

operated controller in the market today. The TBC

WP controller is equipped with an infrared

interface with an optional radio interface for communication. The controller’s enclosure design

is weather and vandal resistant. The TBC

WP controller is perfect for installations where AC

power sources are not available.

The TBC

WP controllers are available in one, two, four or six-station models.

The TBC

WP controllers feature:

• Four independent programs (A, B, C & D)

• 10 start times per program

• One minute to 12 hours of irrigation run time per station

• Day of the week, 31-day interval, Odd and Even watering schedules with day exclusions

• 0–300% monthly water budgeting in 10% increments

• Manual, semi-auto or auto activation

• Optional dual-communication function; radio & IR models available

• Programmed with Toro TBC

HH Programmer and other non-Toro hand-held programmers

• Power capacitor can retain the current time during battery replacement for up to one

minute. Programs are stored in ash memory which is unaffected by power loss

• Designed to connect to a normally-closed sensor (i.e. Toro RainSensor

• Fully compatible with Toro and most competitor’s DC latching solenoids

• Station short circuit detection with use of Toro TBC

HH Programmer

• Unique power feature conrms there is sufcient battery power to turn off all stations

To replace AC solenoids with DC Latching solenoids

Step 1 –

Locate and shut off the

water supply that services

the irrigation system.

Step 2 –

Disconnect the wiring

from the existing solenoid

and unscrew it from the

valve.

Step 3 –

Install the DC Latching

solenoid onto the valve.

Step 4 –

Strip approximately 1/2”

(1.25 cm) of the insulation

from the DC Latching

solenoid’s wires.

Step 5 –

Refer to “Connecting The

Valve” section on page 5

for wiring instruction and diagram.

NOTE:

The use of Toro DC latching solenoids is recommended.

24 VAC Solenoid 9 VDC Latching Solenoid

Connecting the Valve

The TBC

WP controller can only operate valves equipped with a DC Latching solenoid. Verify

that the device being controlled is equipped with the proper solenoid.

Connecting the Valves

Step 1 –

If connecting more than one valve,

determine the station designation

for each valve. For programming

purposes, note the zone that each

valve/station will service.

Step 2 –

Connect the TBC

WP controller’s

station 1 wire to the positive (red)

wire lead from Station 1 solenoid.

Connect the TBC

WP controller’s

C (common) wire (black) to the

negative (black) solenoid wire.

Connect the remaining Station

wires (colored) to their respected

soleoid wires in the same manner.

NOTE:

Use water sealed/

proof wire connectors (not

supplied) for this application.

Step 3 –

Check the valve(s) and controller for proper operation. (Refer to TBC

HH User’s

Guide for operation.)

Connecting the Rain Sensor

The TBC

WP sensor is designed for a normally closed sensor.

The following example will illustrate how to connect a wired Toro RainSensor

to the

controller. Other normally closed sensors can be installed to the controller as well, such as

moisture, rain, etc.

Step 1 –

Route wires from the rain sensor to

the TBC

WP controller.

Step 2 –

Cut the wire loop (yellow) from

TBC

WP controller’s Sensor A and B.

Strip approximately 1/2" (1.25 cm)

of insulation from the wires and

connect them to the rain sensor wires.

Wire polarity is not observed in this

application.

NOTE:

Use water sealed/proof

wire connectors (not supplied) for this

application.

IMPORTANT:

If a rain sensor is not

installed, the TBC

WP controller’s

Sensor A and B wires must be

connected together. Otherwise, the

controller will assume that rain is

being detected and it will prevent

programs from activating.

Battery Installation

The TBC

WP controller is powered by two 9 VDC alkaline batteries (not supplied). The use

of two high-quality alkaline batteries is recommended to maximize performance. Fresh high

quality batteries will provide sufcient power to last an entire irrigation season.

Step 1 –

Unscrew the battery cap to

access the battery compartment.

Step 2 –

Install two 9 VDC alkaline

batteries onto the two battery

connectors located inside the

compartment.

IMPORTANT:

Make sure no

water is present in the battery

compartment.

Step 3 –

Position the batteries inside the

compartment and replace the

cover.

NOTE:

Hand-tighten the

battery cap only. Do not over

tighten.

The cap is equipped with

a gasket and an O-ring to provide a waterproof seal. Over tightening the cap might

damage these seals.

Installing the TBCTMWP Controller Module

Install the TBC

WP controller next to the valve(s), inside a valve box.

Step 1 –

Position the TBC

WP controller

inside the valve box. Select a

position such that the battery

compartment and the IR port can

be easily accessed. Mark the

screw hole position on the valve

box.

Step 2 –

Secure the two mounting screws

on the marked location. Leave

approximately 1/4" (6mm) of the

exposed screw.

Step 3 –

Hang the controller onto the

screws. Verify that the screws are

seated properly at the top of the

keyhole slot.

Step 4 –

Tighten the screws to secure the

controller.

IMPORTANT:

For controller

with integrated radio interface,

position the antenna upright for

optimum performance.

Step 5 –

Write the hand-held and controller module numbers on the provided label.

See TBC

HH manual for details.

Troubleshooting Guide

The following problem samples are listed to help you troubleshoot your TBC

WP controller in

case you encounter performance issues.

Many of the problems involving the TBC

WP controller are commonly associated with

transmission/reception. These are usually caused by low battery power or improper battery

connection. Other causes can also be improper wire connections or a dirty IR connector.

Problem: Faulty Transmission

Possible Cause: Low battery power

Solution: Replace the batteries

Possible Cause: Improper battery connection

Solution: Verify that the batteries are connected properly

Possible Cause: The TBC

WP controller IR port is dirty

Solution: Clean the TBC

WP IR port

Possible Cause: Improper connection between hand held and controller

Solution: Reconnect the IR port and verify that connection is secure

Possible Cause: The TBC

WP microprocessor did not properly reset

Solution: Reset the controller by removing the batteries from the controller.

Ground both battery lead terminals for 1-minute. Reinstall the batteries.

Possible Cause: If using the integrated radio, the controller and hand held identication

codes do not match.

Solution: Reset the controller by removing the batteries from the controller. Ground

both battery lead terminals for 1-minute. Follow the controller setup in

the TBC

HH User’s Guide.

Problem: Station Fails to Start

Possible Cause: No programmed station run time.

Solution: Modify program to include station run time.

Possible Cause: The On-Off mode is activated.

Solution: Enable irrigation by deactivating On-Off mode.

Possible Cause: Low battery power.

Solution: Replace the batteries.

Possible Cause: Improper wire connection.

Solution: Verify the wire connections. If necessary, redo the splices and connectors.

Possible Cause: TBC

WP sensor input is active.

Solution: If a rain sensor is not installed, verify that Sensor A & B wires are connected

together. If a sensor is installed, verify proper operation of that sensor.

Possible Cause: Short circuit in the solenoid or the wiring to the solenoid.

Solution: Verify with TBC

WP Programmer that a short was detected on the station.

If a short is detected, replace the solenoid and/or wiring to the solenoid.

Possible Cause: Improper solenoid operation.

Solution: Repair or replace solenoid.

Problem: Station stops when it should start or vice versa

Possible Cause: Station wires are reversed.

Solution: Verify that the DC Latching solenoid’s colored wire is connected to the

TBC

WP station wire. Verify that the black solenoid wire is connected to the

TBC

WP common (C) terminal.

Possible Cause: Solenoid is out of phase with the controller.

Solution: Reset the controller. During the start-up, the controller will synchronize with

the solenoid.
