Toro announced that Lynx Drive — a mobile-first approach to golf irrigation software designed for golf course superintendents — is now available for order.
The Lynx Drive is an entirely renewed system designed for real-time, on-the-go control. No matter where they are on the course, Lynx Drive allows superintendents to manage irrigation from a mobile device. Tested on a wide range of courses, including Bobby Jones Golf Course in Atlanta, Georgia, the system is known for its usability and efficiency.
“Toro continues to design top-tier solutions for irrigation management that play a vital role in our ability to maintain our revolutionary, reversible course,” Bobby Jones Golf Course superintendent Kyle Macdonald said. “The new Lynx Drive system makes it possible to respond to issues in real time with nearly pinpoint accuracy while keeping the entire crew updated on needed actions.”
With Lynx Drive, superintendents can immediately respond to changing course conditions, shifting weather and unexpected emergencies — all from a mobile device. Designed for easy use on smartphones and tablets, the layout of Lynx Drive highlights the features used daily to optimize irrigation management. The display includes larger text and high-quality images with bright colors for enhanced visibility and detail.
The system ensures the entire crew is informed, minimizing delays and eliminating guesswork. Smart Notes provides immediate communication with detailed notes, photos and team transparency. The ability to include a device name makes it possible to identify who performed each action, while time-stamped photos add valuable detail. Smart Notes maintains a full notes history for up to one year for easy reference.
Smart Notes and flags help to pinpoint reports and match them to an exact station on the map, ensuring precise adjustments in the correct location. All alerts and a detailed course map are visible to the entire crew on both mobile and desktop platforms for fast, coordinated action. Expanded mapping integration enables users to include files that can be shared through mobile and desktop programs. This can lead to streamlined communications, more efficient operations and greater productivity.
"We previewed Lynx Drive at the GCSAA Show and are thrilled to get it in the hands of the superintendents it was designed for," Toro senior product marketing manager John Dalman said. "This revolutionary system will change the way courses perform preventative and reactive maintenance, improving course conditions and crew collaboration."
Lynx Drive is currently compatible with two-wire Lynx Smart Module systems. Support for additional platforms, such as satellite and hybrid, will be introduced with future releases.
