2. Press       to stop any stations that may be watering. If a station is in operation, a 

manual start is impossible. A station may be in operation at the module level, but 
without any irrigation in the field. This is what occurs when the Rain Shut-off De-

vice 

prevents programmed irrigation.

3. Press       until the program cycle you would like to start is displayed.

4. Press       to start the cycle.

Irrigation will start after 20 seconds if you are using an old type Control Module. If 
you are using a new type Control Module (a control module with a yellow wire loop), 
irrigation will start after 10 seconds. The stations assigned to the program will oper-

ate in sequence until the last station has finished watering. Irrigation will then

stop.

5. If you wish to stop watering before the manual cycle has completed, press        .

Maintaining the UNIK Field Transmitter

To keep your Field Transmitter in working order:

· Change the battery once a year. We recommend you use a high-quality alkaline bat

tery, such as Energizer. When changing the Field Transmitter battery, any stored 
programs will be lost. To avoid this:

1. Press       to download the programs into a Control Module.

2. Change the battery.

3. Press       to upload the programs into the Field Transmitter.

• 

Replace the Field Transmitter’s protective cover after use.

• 

Secure the optical connector to the base of the cord after use.

• 

Do not expose the liquid crystal display (LCD) to sunlight for prolonged periods.
