Version History IrriRT

CAD import

Possibility of recognizing the main pipe during the import of DXF files by adopting a specific color for the element.

Exported documents

New indication of the diameter and length value of the pipes shown in the exported drawings (PDF and DXF). This will allow you to have more information during the installation phase.

Google Maps

Resolution of the major problem through the Google Maps console due to a technological change requested by Google and which involved an implementation effort.

Further advancements and fixes

1. Fixed footer and turn map export issue
2. Database update for Netafim
3. Bug fixings

Valve box and cabinet

Possibility of introducing a group of valves/cabinet/control unit into the system and managing shifts. Connection of a new sector to the valve box automatically (if existing at the closest element) or manually.

Pipe design

Guided design of pipes and dispensing devices with control of the flow rate shown in real time to create a shift without exceeding the available flow rate.

Measure

When drawing new pipelines, the system shows the relative length.

Block of elements

New functionality to easily create, save and reopen blocks composed of any database element.

Pump saving

Possibility, through a dedicated window, to create, save and open a pump again, evaluate its operation and accept its use in the system.

Connection of emitters

New functionality that allows you to automatically connect the selected emitters to an existing network and divide them into shifts based on the available flow rate.

Inline driplines

During inline dripline tracking the system automatically positions the driplines at the correct spacing.

Label

Automatic sizing of pipeline labels in exported documents based on the dimensions of the element to which the label refers.

Footer

Automatic footer sizing and positioning. Possibility to position the footer also manually.

Database

Distinction between the database contained in the IrriPro software from that in IrriRT to prevent agricultural products from being used in gardening and vice versa

Further advancements and fixes

1. Shift map update
2. Possibility of extending a luminaire to the edge or to an internal selection
3. Updated the database with new products from the Netafim and Pipelife catalogue
4. New function disconnects dispensers from their connections
5. Fixed bug in the MAC version in scrolling navigation in the Google Maps console
6. Bug fixings

Popup placement and connection

The automatic positioning and connection of popups uses a new algorithm that improves device coverage and connection quality. The ducts will be automatically sized and equipped with all the necessary fittings.

New labels

New indication of the diameter and length value of the pipes shown in the exported drawings (PDF and DXF). This will allow you to have more information during the installation phase.

Database

Database update for Pipelife, Azud and other brands.

Further advancements and fixes

1. Improved algorithm of the “connect dispensers” function
2. Improved function added new products in the database
3. Bug fixings

Closed networks

It is finally possible to design sector networks that present closed paths. This new typology only concerns the design but does not involve differences in the hydraulic calculation. Also available is the new type of ducts to create rings or closed networks.

MAC version

After several reports of incompatibility of IrriRT with new generation MAC systems, with this version we have made profound changes that resolve this problem.

Updated console

Due to a technical incompatibility introduced by a Google update, a new version of the Google Maps console included in the software has been released.

Non-irrigated area

New “non-irrigated area” function with which the user can indicate where the pipes should not pass. The system automatically considers the edges of the land as a “non-irrigated area” for main and secondary pipelines.

Database

New Pipelife catalog and Netafim database update.

Further advancements and fixes

1. Correction of pump calculation
2. Improved selection criterion for device range
3. Improved regulator positioning algorithm

Automatic connection

Very useful function when you want to create a new shift/sector with a specific group of elements. Simply call up the function after selecting the devices and the system will automatically connect them with pre-sized ducts and the addition of the necessary fittings.

New report

The new report is now cumulative (of the entire system) of the hydraulic calculations with data also on pressure drops, speed and lengths of the sections. Furthermore, the list can be exported for a single sector or for the main pipeline only.

Change range

Generally the throw is shown with nominal values ​​and, after the hydraulic calculation, varies as a function of the pressure. The user now has the possibility to modify the range of the device up to 25% to take into account possible manual adjustments foreseen in the field in many models.

Further advancements and fixes

1. Flow rate unit of measurement in L/min instead of mc/h
2. Possibility to insert the drop online
3. Improved devices distribution for greater coverage
4. Ability to change the size of the Footer and legend
