BaseStation 6000 Specification Sheet BaseStation 6000 Baseline's BaseStation 6000™ is an advanced smart controller that is ideal for large or complex projects. The BaseStation 6000 accommodates up to 4,000 zones with 500 soil moisture sensors and manages flow on up to 800 separate flow nodes across 24 flow devices. In the BaseStation 6000 system, you can connect up to 20 Remote Base Units that take the place of individual controllers. A variety of communication options gives you ultimate flexibility for any project. You can connect the Remote Base Units to the central control computer with a serial connection, a two-wire connection (through a Bridge Unit), Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection, or a mesh radio connection. Operating Features Each controller can operate:  Up to 20 Remote Base Units  Up to 4000 zones using two-wire and/or conventional wiring (up to 200 zones per Remote Base Unit)  Up to 500 moisture sensors (up to 25 sensors per Remote Base Unit)  Up to 50 normally closed pause device inputs along the two-wire (up to 5 pause devices per Remote Base Unit and 1 rain switch)  Up to 50 normally open or normally closed master valves  Up to 24 flow meters  Up to 110 device loads on a single two-wire path per controller or Remote Base Unit  Operate up to 15 solenoids concurrently per Remote Base Unit, for a total 100 concurrent solenoids per controller  Automatically adjust run times and/or day intervals based on soil moisture readings collected at the plant’s root zone. Soil moisture readings exceeding an assigned shut-off level will override a programmed run time or day interval.  Operate in any of the following soil moisture sensor-based modes: fully automatic, semiautomatic, and manual  Operate in any of the following smart watering modes The controller is able to:  Manage 100 programs including up to 24 start times per program  Establish up to 100 separate hydrozones, each with individual adjustable zone run times, Intelligent Soak Cycling, and percentage adjustability from 33-400% on all linked zones   Soil moisture sensor based modes including fully automatic, semiautomatic, and manual  ET watering based on the PenmanMonteith Equation and weather station data  ET watering based on the Hargreaves Equation and air temperature sensor readings Automatically capture soil moisture, water usage, and programming data and display it graphically pg. 1 1.866.294.5847 WWW.BASELINESYSTEMS.COM Water when you need it! Rev 11012011 BaseStation 6000 Specification Sheet Operating Features, continued   Learn flow and manage flow   Monitor system flows   Shorten water windows by allowing maximum zone concurrency without exceeding system flow capacity Based on readings from an Air Temperature biSensor  Based on readings from a weather station  Turn off zones with higher than expected flow rates due to broken irrigation lines  Track water usage of each zone and program and compare zone and program water budgets Provide methods for backing up the program information and report data to a USB flash drive Programmable Features  Set a “water window,” for each day of the week on a per hour basis, which suspends watering beyond a set time and resumes watering when another window reopens  Assign watering in minutes or by direct soil moisture monitoring  Schedule watering based on:  Use ET-based watering methods  Day intervals  Customizable weekly calendar  A “seasonal adjust” schedule  Schedule events on a per program basis to pause irrigation from 1 hour to a full 24 hours  Set a “rain delay” that will suspend watering for 1 to 7 days  Set up multiple levels of password protection for central login security: one for read-only permission and one for read/write permission.  Set up a “walk-around” test with an on/off time delay. The delay provides time for a user to walk to an assigned area before the required valves turn on.  Seasonally adjust programs by percentage  Upload an image of the site and then manage the system from the graphical interface  Set up start/stop conditions based on sensor readings or switch states  Establish a water budget and configure various responses to meeting/exceeding that budget  Configure notifications and alerts: Configure Intelligent Soak Cycles™ with soak and cycle times from 2 to 240 minutes  By delivery method  To designated recipients  By delivery time pg. 2 1.866.294.5847 WWW.BASELINESYSTEMS.COM Water when you need it! Rev 11012011 BaseStation 6000 Specification Sheet Alerts, Logs, and Reports    Monitor and report on the following:  The last date a program ran  A progress bar for all currently running programs describing how much run time is remaining  The next run date of a program  Water consumption used by program per run estimation  365 days of moisture readings displayed graphically   Send the following alerts by text message and/or email:  High Flow Shut Down  Excessive Current  High Moisture Warning  High Moisture Shut Down  Notify users via text message or email if the controller cannot communicate with the Remote Base Units Water flow estimation in gallons per minute  Run a complete system diagnostic test daily and generate a report  Total daily, current month, and previous month’s water consumption estimation in gallons  Keep track of all changes made to programming and report those changes in a Change log  Actual water used and flow rate for each flow meter   A report for every pause condition event  Monthly water budget Read and report the current of the two-wire during normal running conditions. In the event of an over current, the controller will disable the two-wire for controller’s protection.  Read and report the voltage drop at the connections of all smart devices  Log data collected from each flow meter and zone (run time, soak time) Test each zone and display:  Two-wire voltage drop  Two-wire current before, during, and after each decoder test  Valve voltage and current  Decoder communications  Decoder serial number Send the following daily reports by email:  Valve test  Daily estimated water used report  Daily status  Change log  Valve activity log  Alarm and alert report  IO logs Electrical Specifications Transformer Input  Requires 120 VAC, 50 Hz to 60 Hz and a minimum of a 5 amp breaker  Requires a certified electrician for hard-wire install with the included green, black, and white wires pg. 3 1.866.294.5847 WWW.BASELINESYSTEMS.COM Water when you need it!
