Baseline’s biCoders work with Baseline’s biLine two-wire technology to create the only true bi-directional two-wire devices in the industry. Baseline’s biCoders not only receive commands from the controller, they also send real-time information back to the controller. Plus, Baseline’s biCoders have built-in diagnostic LED lights that tell you at a glance whether the device is working. This smart technology also enables you to assign any biCoder to a zone or function from the controller after the biCoder has been installed in the field. With a multi-station biCoder, you can assign any station on to any zone, in any order.
- Requires typical solenoid with approximately 400 mA inrush current with approximately 200 mA holding current
- Includes a built-in amperage meter that accurately measures and diagnoses valve solenoid electrical problems such as no current, station short, or over current
- All biCoders carry Baseline’s standard conditional five-year exchange warranty.
Features and Benefits
The secret to Baseline’s biLine two-wire technology lies in Baseline’s patented biCoders™ (two-wire decoders). Baseline’s biCoders are the only true bi-directional two-wire devices in the industry because Baseline’s biCoders not only receive commands from the controller, they also send real-time information back to the controller. Plus, Baseline’s biCoders have built-in diagnostic LED lights that tell you at a glance whether the device is working.This smart technology also enables you to assign any biCoder to a zone or function from the controller after the biCoder has been installed in the field. With a multi-station biCoder, you can assign any station to any zone, in any order. These features will save you hundreds of hours because Baseline has eliminated the need for expensive programming equipment or multiple trips into the field just to assign zones to a device. And diagnostics and repairs are a whole lot easier too.Baseline’s biLine technology and biCoders can operate up to 15 zones concurrently at distances further from the controller than any other product in the market. More zones running means a shorter water window, and a greater allowable wire length means fewer controllers to manage.
