CONNECT DC is a Bluetooth controller for battery-powered residential irrigation. It sits in the valve box and is programmed from the Rain Vision app. Pre-mounted watertight connectors make installation quick.

The housing is IP68 and submersible. Power is four AAA alkaline batteries, which are not included. It drives 9 Vdc latching solenoids, has a rain sensor input, a removable control unit and a low-battery signal. Models are available for 1, 2, 4 and 6 zones.

EASY mode suits balconies and small gardens: two programmes, one start time each, from once every 6 hours down to once every 15 days. PRO mode is for seeding and larger lawns, with six start times per programme. Add a Nuvola Vision hub when the system needs to be managed over the internet.

BLUETOOTH: What is the maximum distance for pairing Vision devices via Bluetooth?

The average distance is 15 meters under standard conditions but can vary due to obstacles and environmental factors.

BLUETOOTH: How many smartphones can simultaneously connect to a Vision device via Bluetooth?

Only one device can connect at a time as Bluetooth communication is point-to-point.

BLUETOOTH: Is it compatible with older smartphones?

Compatibility depends on Bluetooth version. Devices with Bluetooth 5.0 are recommended.

BLUETOOTH: I entered the Bluetooth password but can't pair the device. What should I do?

Ensure no other account is paired with the device, clear Bluetooth data, restart your smartphone, and try again.

BLUETOOTH: I forgot the Bluetooth password. How can I reset it?

Scan the QR code on the device to reset it to the default password (000000).

VISION APP I see the umbrella icon and the active zone icon. What does that mean?

It means that the area being irrigated does not have a rain sensor active, while the others do. So the umbrella icon (rain sensor icon) appears for those areas where it is active, while it does not appear for the area which is irrigating.

VISION APP If I delete the App with the devices I have associated, will they remain saved in the Account? So if I reinstall the App, will I still find the devices saved in my Account?

Yes, if you uninstall the App with the devices associated with this Account and then install it again, you will still see the devices associated with the Account.

VISION APP: Will my devices remain saved if I uninstall the app?

Yes, associated devices remain saved in the account and will appear after reinstalling the app.

VISION APP: The Vision App is not responding. What could be the problem?

It may be due to background apps, processor overload, or device conditions. Restart your smartphone to resolve the issue.

VISION APP: How can I re-pair a controller accidentally deleted from Nuvola?

Go to the Nuvola screen, search for devices, and re-pair with the previously associated control unit.

VISION APP: I can't find devices to pair. What should I do?

Try updating the app, clearing Bluetooth settings, removing and reinserting the battery, or restarting your smartphone.

VISION APP: What does the umbrella icon and the active zone icon mean?

The umbrella icon indicates an active rain sensor. If it doesn’t appear for an irrigated area, the rain sensor is not active there.

VISION APP: What is the difference between PAUSE and OFF?

OFF: The control unit is turned off, indicating the end of the irrigation season.

PAUSE: Temporarily suspends operation for a few days, resuming programming after the pause period.

VISION APP: What happens if I lose the data connection when I click save and send? Will I have to repeat the programming?

Yes, a data connection is necessary for saving. If the connection fails, the application and system will not be updated.

INTERNET CONNECTION: What kind of Wi-Fi does Vision System use?

It uses standard Wi-Fi (WPA2) with SSID and password.

INTERNET CONNECTION: What distance should I maintain between Nuvola and the Wi-Fi router?

INTERNET CONNECTION: How many accounts can pair with one Nuvola?

Only one account can link to a Nuvola, but one account can manage multiple Nuvola devices.

INTERNET CONNECTION: Pairing with Nuvola takes too long. Why?

Wireless interference or environmental factors may delay pairing. Normally, it takes around 10 seconds under optimal conditions.

INTERNET CONNECTION: Can Vision controllers connect to the Internet for remote management?

Yes, they can connect via Nuvola devices.

VISION PROGRAMMING In the Advanced Frequency mode, I entered a frequency for every 2 days and then Thursday and Friday because I need to irrigate those two days. Will the controller save my programming?

No, the controller saves only one of the set frequency modes. Specifically, it stores the last changed frequency. In the list of frequencies, the one that has the "check mark" will be stored.

VISION PROGRAMMING What does Save and send mean?

Save: to save the settings in the Server. Send: to send these settings to the Server

VISION PROGRAMMING How do I switch from standard mode to advanced mode
