Connect Pump Start Relay (optional)
The ESP-Me can control a pump start relay, to turn the
pump on and off as needed.

Connect a wire from the pump start relay (PSR)
to the master valve terminal (MV) on the base
module. Then connect another wire from the
pump start relay to the field common wire, as
shown.

To avoid the possibility of damage to the pump,
connect a short jumper wire from any unused
terminal(s) to the nearest terminal in use, as
shown.
