INTRODUCTION Scope of this Manual This manual provides instructions for the installation and operation of the Distributed I/O system Piccolo Interface Unit (PIU) and Piccolo–XR units. The Distributed I/O System includes PIUs and Piccolo–XRs. Each PIU can be linked to up to 256 Piccolo–XRs. For more information on the PIU and Piccolo–XR, see the online help of the DIOS Service Toolkit. General Description The Distributed I/O System (DIOS) is a self-sustained system designed to function within the IRRInet irrigation control product line. The DIOS consists of the following components:  Piccolo Interface Unit (PIU)  Piccolo–XR Units The PIU functions as an interface between the host application (irrigation SW and HW) and the Piccolo–XR units. The PIU and Piccolo-XR are portable devices, which are used in fixed installations. The PIU uses one of its communication ports to link to the host application and radio communication to link to the Piccolo–XR units. Figure 1 provides a general view of the DIOS System. 1
Introduction 2 Piccolo-XR UnitsI/O'sIRRInet Field UnitPiccolo Interface UnitRS485orRS232 PIU Figure 1 DIOS –General System View The battery-operated Piccolo–XR unit is available in various models with different options of Inputs and Outputs. The Piccolo–XR unit can operate DC latch solenoids (outputs), read status and calculate flow of dry contact meters (inputs). The units are equipped with built-in radio for communication with the PIU. The DIOS automatically builds communication network, using Store and Forward (S&F) technology, enabling the DIOS to cover areas larger than normally possible when using a single radio to communicate with the PIU. Using the DIOS, the IRRInet system opens and closes stations (manually or automatically by irrigation programs), reads dry contact input status, calculates flow rate and accumulates pulses from water meters.
Introduction 3PIU - Piccolo Interface Unit The Piccolo Interface Unit (PIU; see Figure 2) is connected to the IRRInet Field Unit (FU) via RS232 or RS485 serial ports. Each PIU supports up to 256 Piccolo–XR units, with any available I/O combination, limited by the capacity of the IRRInet software only. Utilizing the S&F technology and networking capabilities, the PIU can be linked to Piccolo–XR units positioned in distances of up to 1500-2000 meters (approx. 1 mile), depending on topography, antenna type and antenna installation. The PIU is an interface between the Piccolo–XR and the IRRInet FU, which provides communication and networking operations only. (Monitor and control features are not included in the PIU.) That is: The control and monitor functions are provided either locally, by the Piccolo–XR or by an upper hierarchy unit (i.e. IRRInet FU). The PIU is a portable device, which is used in fixed installations enclosed in an indoor plastic housing. The PIU must be installed by qualified and authorized technicians, so as to meet applicable safety standards and to ensure protection against weather hazards for the unit. If the PIU will be connected to outdoor lines, an interface unit, complying with Clause 6 of the UL 60950 standard must be provided.
Introduction 4 Figure 2 PIU – General View Piccolo–XR The Piccolo–XR is an intelligent, microprocessor based unit that can be used to monitor and control local units in a multi unit communication network. Piccolo–XR units communicate data to a PIU while functioning as intelligent nodes in Distributed I/O monitor and control systems. The Piccolo–XR is often used in irrigation and water distribution systems (i.e. irrigation valves, water meters, fertilizing meters, various sensors, flushing filters, and other non-irrigation devices). The Piccolo–XR is ideal for use in applications where very low power consumption is essential. The Piccolo–XR is also available in an outdoor resistant housing (IP66), designed to resist harsh environment, such as exposure to sun, dust, and pouring rain.
Introduction 5 Figure 3 Piccolo XR –General View Safety Handling Instructions For safety handling instructions, see the Product Safety and RF Energy Exposure Booklet for PIU and Piccolo XR Units, Motorola publication no. 6802974C70, which is distributed with the devices. The radio frequency band used by the DIOS system has not been harmonized throughout the entire European Economic Area (EEA).

APPENDIX A: PIU AND PICCOLO-XR SPECIFICATIONS 45Note 11: For radio functionality external Power In minimum voltage=5 V. Unlicensed Frequency Restrictions (For UHF 430-450 MHz radio only) When using a frequency in the unlicensed ISM range (433.0625-434.7875 MHz, not including 443.95 MHz and 444.8625 MHz), certain regulatory restrictions apply: Maximum transmit power 10mW (See Note 12 below.) Maximum transmission time 1 sec (See Note 13 below.) Channel occupation duty cycle (total transmit time in any hour) 10% per hour (360 seconds) (See Note 14 below.) Transmission Limited to quiet channel (See Note 15 below. Override Not allowed When Piccolo XR / PIU units are ordered in the unlicensed ISM range (433.0625 - 434.7875 MHz), the radio will be shipped after being programmed to 10 mW output power. Note 12: Please note that due to the lower transmission power, the distance between the Piccolo and the PIU is shorter than the distance when using a licensed frequency with 100 mW transmission power. Note 13: The current consumption of the Piccolo will increase due to the fact that the Maximum transmission time is reduced and therefore the Piccolo should wake up more frequently. Note 14: The maximum number of transmissions from the PIU/Piccolo is limited to 360 per hour. When this number is exceeded, the PIU/Piccolo will stop transmitting until the current hour has elapsed. Note 15: The PIU/Piccolo will not transmit on a busy channel. Verify that the frequency you choose in the band is not continually busy.

Appendix C: Antenna 52 Pole Antenna The pole antenna installation must comply with the following requirements in order to ensure optimal performance and guarantee that human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set forth by the applicable local regulations. The antenna must be mounted outdoors, preferably on a tower, if possible. Building mounted antennas must be located on the building roof. All fixed site antenna installations, including the installation of this pole antenna, require that, under the responsibility of the licensee, the installation site be managed in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements. This may require taking additional compliance actions such as signage and site access restrictions in order to ensure that human exposure limits are not exceeded.
