Field Satellite and MapTo Universal Central Control Toro expands its Sentinel Satellite offering by introducing two new enclosures. When combined with our existing stainless steel enclosures, Toro provides the designer with the most diverse and complete ensure selection in the industry. With Sentinel, we maximize your ability to meet the exact control and enclosure requirements of any site. Sentinel PERFORMANCE Sentinel Satellites are manufactured to operate over a number of different wired and wireless communication protocols, and to read and react to a wide variety of sensors.
Real time data is displayed in the Sentinel Satellite’s LCD and can shutdown stations, satellites or under user defined conditions. Controller stores all data locally so no central PC is required for irrigation or for reaction to alarms. EXPANDIBILITY Modular station counts are available from twelve to 48 stations with the use of 12 station output modules, and up to ninety-six stations with the use of the Sentinel MapTo assemblies. Choose your own surge protection level to adapt to any environmental requirement. Also, the factory installed junction box provides power for peripheral communication devices. PROFESSIONAL GRADE Customize your Sentinel system by using one or any combination of key-locking metal, plastic, or stainless steel wall or pedestal mounted enclosures.

Sentinel allows the user to communicate to up to 999 satellite controllers wirelessly rather than forcing the customer to install lengthy wire runs that tie field controllers together. Sentinel provides a variety of Central Computer to Satellite communication options, so you can choose the one that best meets your site-specific needs or mix-and-match across multiple sites: radio CoMMuniCations Radio communication from the Central Computer to Sentinel Satellites allows you to install Sentinel at sites with little or no disruption of existing landscapes and is ideal for single-site installations.
