Entering the WVC Identification Code

Each WVC controller has a unique 3-digit identification code that is established during the installation of the controller. This unique code allows for added security and radio operation of individual controllers on a site that has multiple WVC controllers. To establish radio contact with a WVC, you must know the unique identification code that was established during the initial setup of the WVC controller (refer to the WVC Owner’s Manual for information on setting or changing the identification code for your controller).

  1. Press the Transmit/Receive button on backside of the WVP handle. The lower portion of the display will illuminate. The Transmit/Receive arrow will be flashing.
  2. Use the + or - button to enter the unique WVC identification code from 0 to 999.

If you are experiencing problems contacting the WVC, make sure you are using the correct identification code. If communication problems persist, try moving closer to the WVC to improve radio contact. The range of the signal will be up to 100 ft. with the WVC installed in the valve box. Actual performance varies depending upon the installation and the surrounding terrain.
