Firmware Update Menu
Firmware updates are free for the life of any Baseline controller as long as the hardware is
compatible. Baseline will periodically release firmware upgrades that enhance the usefulness of our
products or fix the occasional bug.
USB Update
Use this method when your controller is not connected to the Internet. You will need a
computer with a USB port. This computer must have access to the Internet. You also need a
USB drive. You download the firmware from the Baseline web site, “unzip” the compressed
file, and copy the folder that contains the files to the USB drive. Finally, you take the USB
drive to the controller and install the update.
BaseManager Update
Use this method when your controller is connected to the Internet. You can install the
firmware update directly from BaseManager to your controller.
Export Data
Copies the log files from the controller to a USB drive.
Controller Off
Press the OFF button when you want to halt all watering for an indefinite period of time. All current
watering cycles will be stopped. No watering cycles will be started. Use this button for seasonal
shutdown. DO NOT power down the BaseStation.
When the controller is off, the status “SYSTEM OFF” displays in the upper-left corner of the screen,
and the screen displays the Zone Status report.
