Rain Bird’s newest 2-Wire Controller has many powerful new features like the Integrated Valve Module that stays in constant communication with the controller to provide efficient irrigation and advanced diagnostics. The ESP-LXIVM supports up to 60 stations standard or 240 stations with LX-IVM Pro. Up to four 2-Wire paths can be connected, plus flow sensing and advanced flow management tools that set new industry standards for state-of-the art water management.

Diagnostic Features:
 
2-Wire Mapping: Maps the devices to corresponding wire paths in the controller to help quickly find and resolve issues
 
Self-Healing: Automatically detect “fixes” to wire path and splice issues and re-start irrigation without reliance on manual intervention
 
Two- Way Communication: with Intelligent Valve Modules (IVM) communication happens both ways enabling key features
 
Self-Shutoff : Once loss of power is detected, automatically shutoff valve to avoid leaks
Alarm light with external case lens
2-Wire diagnostics to simplify and expedite troubleshooting
Four isolated wire paths prevent full system failure under a single short
