Limiting Zones by Flow for a Water Source

You can enter a target flow in gallons per minute (GPM) for the water source that supplies water

through the flow device to the rest of the irrigation system. The BaseStation 1000 uses this value to

manage the number of zones that can run at one time so that the water source is used as

efficiently as possible. If you set this value to zero, you cannot use this GPM amount to control

concurrent zones.
