Using the test program
The test program allows you to run a test cycle
for all the stations on a particular program. It also
lets you decide how long the test will last.To set
and then start a test program:
1.
Rotate the dial to TEST PROGRAM. The dis-
play shows the program, TEST, and the
length of time to test.
2.
Press PGM until the program you want to
test is displayed.
3.
Use the arrow keys to set the length of time
to test each station for from 1 to 99 minutes.
4.
Press MAN START/ADV to start the test.
The test time flashes and the controller runs
the test program immediately, suspending
any work in progress.
5.
If you want to add other programs to the test,
with the dial set to TEST PROGRAM, press
PGM to select the program. Then press MAN
START/ADV to stack the new program after
the first one. You can stack four programs.
Note:
To cancel the test on all programs, rotate
the dial to OFF.
6.
Rotate the dial back to AUTO to return to
normal programming and operation.
Using the Sensor Option
The ESP-MC allows you to connect a sensor that
can disable watering. When a sensor is con-
nected to the ESP-MC and it suspends watering,
the sensor light on the front panel illuminates. To
enable the sensor:
1.
Set the sensor switch to ACTIVE. The con-
troller operates as usual until the sensor sus-
pends watering and the controller display
shows SUSPENDED BY SENSOR.
