Quick Installation & Start
Guide
The UgMO UG1000C-A Irrigation controller is designed to bring
full moisture sensor control to both residential and large
commercial landscapes. Available in 12 and 24 zone models,
and utilizing its fully digital interface and patented UGMO
adaptive watering algorithm, the UG1000C-A breaks the
traditional watering schedule paradigm.
There are no start-times to set and no complex site variables to
enter. Just tell it when NOT to water and using the sensor data
UgMO does the rest.

The UG1000C-A Controller has 12 and 24 zone control
capabilities. Simple insert the each valve signal wire
into the corresponding zone and splice all commons
together and in them into the common terminal
found at the top of the vertical set of terminals
pictured to the left.
The UG1000C-A also had the ability to control a
Master Valve, Pump Start Relay, rain, flow and other
sensors, and provides Auxiliary 24VAC and 12VDC
terminals.

You can temporarily turn the system to
OFF, by choosing TEMP SYSTEM OFF and
choosing a time in the box on the right
Soil Moisture Setting
The UG1000C-A controller has the ability to automatically determine your soil characteristics helping it
decide on what the soil type setting should be and the moisture range that is optimal for the health
and growth of your lawn and landscape. You also have the option of manually configuring the soil type
setting and/or adjusting the UgMO determined setting. For best system operation, use the UgMO auto
calibration and then make adjustments to the settings if necessary.
How the auto calibration phase works is, each zone will run for a predetermined amount of time with
soak times in-between until the soil reaches the saturation point and the field capacity is determined.
This is done by measuring the level of the soil moisture over time and how each irrigation cycle affects
it. You can expect to see a lot of water running and very wet conditions during this event which should
only last a couple of days. Once completed, the UG1000C-A will begin to water in accordance to soil
moisture needs and the availability of allowable water windows by observing the scheduled black out
watering times.
The next page will walk you through setting the soil type both automatically and manually.
Soil Moisture Setting …Continued
Press the System Settings soft key
Once auto calibration is started it can be stopped
by pressing the STOP soft key or manual setting of
the soil type can be chosen by pressing MANUAL
Highlight SET SOIL TYPE and press OK
Highlight the zones that you wish to calibrate
or choose ALL ZONES and decide to calibrate

FCC ID: YVAUG1000CA; IC ID: 10216A-UG1000CA
M/N: UG1000C-A
This device complied with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada License Exempt RSS Standard(s). Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B Digital Device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
• This device may only be used with the approved internal antenna that is shipped with the unit and installed per installation
instructions. The use of any other antennas will invalidate the unit’s FCC Part 15 certification.
• To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication. Operating the device
with the supplied antenna will ensure that this requirement is met.
This equipment generates and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures.
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment. A separation distance of 20 cm should be observed to maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure
guidelines set out in OET Bulletin 65.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
