INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting the Hydro-Rain
®
HRC-390 Series
sprinkler controller. Our designers have combined the
simplicity of touch-screen programming with the flexibility
and accuracy of digital electronics to give you a controller
that is easy to program and extremely versatile. This
convenient controller lets you run automatic or manual
watering programs with a wide spectrum of features,
including remote control and RF sensor operations.
Please read this manual completely before you begin
programming and using the controller.
Important Features and Capabilities
Three Independent Programs
HRC 390 sprinkler controller’s offer three independent
programming functions – Programs A, B, and C offer
watering flexibility across variable landscapes ie. Trees,
Turf, Xeriscape, etc. Any of the watering stations can be
assigned to individual or all programs. For example,
stations that water your garden and flower beds could
be assigned to Program A and watered daily starting
at 8 a.m., while stations that water your lawn could be
assigned to Program B and watered every third day
starting at 5 a.m. Program C could be selected for drip or
other low-flow stations.
Simultaneous C Program
The C program is specially designed for drip or other
low-flow stations that need to run for longer durations
or at more frequent intervals. The HRC 390 is able to run
concurrently the C program with A or B programs. See
“Stacking” Feature on the next page.
