is there a way to pipe a group of irrigation heads and then select the group and have LandFX find the middle of the group to connect the supply line to for a balanced system? the way I do it now is with circuiting one "half" of the circuit and then the other and move the circuit lines and refresh multiple times until the sides are balanced, at which point i can put my split or Feed the circuit from the valve. if there was a way for LandFX to run "water" through the pipes and locate the best possible middle it would be awesome... i expect there is something or a better work around, so if there is thank you and if there isn't maybe something to add to the long list of improvements that the team is working on.
Thanks
Bob
Bob,
This is an intriguing idea. The current way you are doing it would be the best, followed closely by using the "Head Tally" option.
However, you did get our creative juices flowing and we are discussing another option to have the ability for the system to draw a line where the flow is most balanced, based on the zone selected. It is definitely at an infancy stage though :)
i also spend time counting heads and "rough calc'ing" flow to try and center valve placement for balanced flow. This would be a great feature. Thank you Bob for this, and Jake thank you guys for being intrigued and challenged.
