Scheduling Irrigation
Station Groups provide a simple method of grouping stations together which share similar landscape
details and physical characteristics. Like traditional programs, these Station Groups are used to schedule
irrigation.
Setting up Station Groups
To create or edit a Station Group, from the Main Menu, navigate to
Scheduled Irrigation
and select
Station Groups
. The Station Groups menu displays (Figure 23).

Adding a New Station Group
When adding a new Station Group, a list of existing Station Groups displays. This provides the
opportunity to select a group that has similar characteristics as the group being created and will copy all
those settings. This is particularly useful for stations that need to be separated for a particular reason,
such as slow closing valves requiring a delay before closing but retain all of the other settings.
To add a new Station Group:
1.
Highlight and select
Add New group
. The Create New Group dialog displays.
2.
Select an existing Station Group from the list and press
SELECT
to create a new group with those
settings.

The first step when working with Station Groups is to provide the group with a unique name. By default,
the name will be set based on the selected Plant Material, Head Type, and Exposure. For example, the
name of the very first Station Group after powering up the controller for the first time is Turf Rotor Full
Sun. However, this can be modified by highlighting the name and pressing
SELECT
. A pop-up keyboard
displays so you can enter a more descriptive name.
