Features

Pilot Command Center Software (CCS) is easy to use and has all the features you need to reliably and automatically water your course. Adjust run times manually or use evapotranspiration (ET) data to determine them automatically. Create watering plans directly in the Command Center — a powerful irrigation planning tool that shows you every sprinkler on the course organized according to your management style.

With the Pilot Navigator™ App, you can bring the powerful features of Pilot CCS anywhere you go. Designed to make course-wide irrigation control more convenient than ever, the app allows you to make seamless system adjustments from any location on any device, so you can save time, conserve water, and stay proactive — wherever you are.

Key Benefits

Command Center: The Command Center organizes all the information you need for daily operation in one place.

Watering Strategy: Make today’s changes and then pick a time to start watering. Pilot takes care of the rest!

Water and Wait: This feature breaks long run times into several short watering periods separated by wait intervals, ensuring consistent coverage at all times — even for clay soils.

Hydraulic Model: Extend the life of your underground pipe network and save money on electricity with a hydraulic model that prevents sudden pressure spikes and produces water window efficiencies of 90% or better.

ET-Based Scheduling: Add a weather station, and Pilot can determine the amount of water required according to local weather conditions.

Failure-Safe Backup: Pilot CCS ensures critical irrigation isn’t dependent on computers or communication links. Efficient watering plan instructions are stored in the non-volatile memory of your field equipment, allowing hubs and controllers to continue watering, even if communication fails.

Controller Programs: Pilot Field Controllers and Hubs offer the best standalone controller programming features in the industry, allowing for precise control over individual station run times. Link your field equipment together as part of a Pilot Network to view and edit the controller-based schedules from the comfort of your office.

Intuitive App Features: The Pilot Navigator™ App makes course-wide control quicker and more convenient than ever. Make seamless system adjustments from any location on any device to save time, conserve water, and stay proactive — wherever you are.

Advanced Features

Improve your understanding of your course by adding an interactive map.

The watering plan is part of the Command Center. It displays every sprinkler on your course, organized according to your management preference.

Pilot uses electrical data from your controllers and hydraulic data about pump stations, underground piping, and sprinklers to efficiently balance sprinkler demand while maintaining flow at safe velocities.
