What is 2-Wire?
A 2-wire irrigation system uses two wires to control an irrigation system’s valves Two-wire systems allow control over large irrigation systems over long distances. A central controller sends coded signals along the two wires to decoders attached to each valve. Each decoder has a unique address, and the controller sends signals to the decoders to turn the valves on or off.
