To Set Watering Cycles:

Multiple watering cycles is simply the where the sprinkler timer 
will cycle.

Using multiple watering cycles is ideal for reducing runoff and  
standing water.  This sprinkler timer allows program A or B  
(or both) to be repeated on the days programed. 

When extra watering is needed, Program A or B (or both) can 
be set to repeat the set watering durations up to 10 times a day. 
In order to maximize absorption and prevent runoff, you may 
set a specific number of minutes or hours between the start of 
one cycle and the start of the following cycle. This is called the 
“cycle delay” and can be set from 0 minutes to 90 minutes in 
10-minute increments, and from 2 hours to 23 hours in
one-hour increments.
