(four hours), in one-minute increments. All run times

You have now completed all programming steps for one

automatically. If you want to enter settings for another program,
repeat the programming instructions, beginning with “Select

OPERATING THE CONTROLLER
After programming the controller, you will normally set it to
AUTO mode to operate all programs automatically. You can
manually run one or more programs, or manually run a single
station or several stations.
In addition, you can adjust the Water Budget to increase or
decrease the run time of all programs by a selected percentage
(in 10% increments). You may also wish to run a test program
to make sure all sprinklers in the system operate properly.
Off Mode

1. To turn the controller off and suspend all watering, turn the
programming dial to OFF .

controller remembers the current time and date and retains
all programming, but no watering occurs. You may wish to
turn the controller off during a rainy period, or for any day(s)
when you do not want watering programs to run as
scheduled.
