5.3.1.3 Cycle and Soak Station Programming
Cycle and Soak Station Programming is used to select the stations, set the runtime, set the
maximum watering time, and set the soak time for each station. After selecting the STATIONS
function, the controller will briefly display the Global Percentage Value. The controller will first
prompt for station number, then the runtime value, followed by the maximum watering time, and
finally the soak time. The Global Percentage Value only applies to the runtime and not to the
maximum watering time or soak time. Selected stations are shown in the STATIONS/DAYS
display. As a convenience, the Program Number is shown in the PROMPT/MESSAGE display,
during station entry.
Before you use the Cycle and Soak feature in a program, you must configure the program, using the
SETUP key. The entire program is then configured to use Cycle and Soak.
NOTE: If a pump is assigned to any program, using the SETUP key, then station 1
cannot be selected as a station, it is reserved for the pump.
EXAMPLE: Program Station 1 for a runtime of 1 hour and 5 minutes, a maximum time of 35
minutes and a soak time of 45 minutes. Set Station 6 for a runtime of 2 hours, a maximum time of 1
hour and a soak time of 20 minutes.
