8 – System Setup

The BaseStation 1000 has a number of features that enable you to set up and maintain the

controller. You can back up your system with a USB drive, and then you can use those backup files

to restore your system if it ever goes down. You can also ensure that your controller has the most

current firmware code with a download from the Baseline web site or from BaseManager.

Setting the Controller Date and Time

Set or change the controller date and time to match the current date and time. If the controller is

connected to BaseManager 2.0, the time will be automatically set by the server.

WARNING! Changing the date and time can cause watering events to be missed.
