Windross Farm In Total Control
Thanks to TORO Lynx with Spectrum
WatchDog Weather Station
ost of the 2017 LPGA Mckayson
NZ Women’s Open, the new Windross
Farm golf course in South Auckland
uses a Spectrum WatchDog weather
station integrated with their TORO
Lynx control system. This ensures
maximum watering efficiency.
The Spectrum WatchDog system
enables Dave Smith and his team to
use real-time weather data and
plug-in sensors (soil moisture
and temperature) to manage
irrigation scheduling. The
system includes a mid-range
radio for transmitting data
wirelessly.
With SpecConnect software and
web portal, all weather data can be
viewed and analysed remotely on a
smart phone or similar device. The
system can be customised to provide
alerts when certain environmental
conditions exist and the weather
stations can be used stand-alone.
As Windross Farm has found, a
Spectrum WatchDog weather station is
a critical tool in reducing water use.
