I'm not sure if I'm missing a setting on my irrigation options but whenever we use Hunter MPRotators, the flow per head only shows up for full circle MPRotator heads. The same is true for other adjustable arc spray heads and fixed arc spray heads. I know that the flow for these adjustable arc rotary and spray heads is dependent on the arc but it would be cool if a flow range was listed on the irrigation schedule at a given PSI. For instance, on the attached image, the flow range for the black MP2000 at 40 PSI would be 0.43-0.86 GPM and the flow range for the Toro 10' TVan at 30 PSI would be 0.72-2.11 GPM. It doesn't get pointed out often but when it does, we manually fill in the blanks by adding mtext at those locations. Is this something that can be added to the irrigation schedule?

CadMonkey,
This has definitely be brought up before, unfortunately the system is not storing the min/max angles anywhere. What might possibly work for all adjustables, is to use the 180 deg number, for example: ~1.2 gpm or +/-1.2gpm. Would something like that work for you? Otherwise, yes, manually putting that note in would be much easier.

Jake,
Not sure if the 180 deg number would work because the adjustable arc Hunter MPRotators go from 90 to 210 degrees and 210 to 270 degrees for the regular types and 45 to 105 for the corner type. I guess that for now we'll continue to manually add the flow range with MTEXT ourselves. Thanks for looking into it.
