Stations 

A station is a single valve that controls multiple sprinkler heads in a zone. Station Groups allow grouping 

of stations based on similar physical characteristics such as head type and plant material. Proper 

placement of stations into station groups establishes accurate irrigation programming to ensure the 

health of a site.  

Individual Station Irrigation Schedule  

When the controller is using evapotranspiration (ET), the controller automatically calculates the station 

run time based on local real-time weather conditions. ET is the process of water evaporating from from 

the soil or transpiring from the leaves of the plant. For more information on ET, see ET and Weather 

Sensors. 

To view or edit individual Stations (Figure 28): 

1.

 

From the Main Menu, navigate to 

Scheduled Irrigation

 and select 

Stations

. The Stations menu 

displays. 

Adjusting Stations Settings 

Adjusting Run Time 

Station Adjust is used to increase or decrease the run time of an individual station using daily ET. This 

feature is typically used to compensate for stations that might have slightly different exposure rates 

than the rest of the Station Group. To adjust this setting, highlight the field and press 

+/-

 to increase or 

decrease the value. As the percentage changes, you will see the approximate run time increase or 

decrease. 

Approx. Run Time 

The approximate run time is automatically calculated using daily ET, and several factors such as the 

station’s irrigation schedule, station adjust factor, and distribution uniformity. The approximate run time 

provides an estimate of what the station will run the next time it is scheduled but may change daily 

based on local weather conditions. This run time also incorporates any Station Group Percent Adjust 

that’s in effect for this station.
