You have now completed programming the first individual valve, including:
• selecting a valve
• irrigation duration
• selecting irrigation days in the weekly program or an irrigation cycle in a cyclic program and a
start time
To proceed to program additional options (fertilizing, sensor, percent %) – see below. To program an
additional individual valve, repeat the programming steps on pages 9-10.
7. FERTILIZING
In fertilizing mode, set the fertilizing duration
for each valve separately. Define the
fertilizing according to a % of the irrigation
duration (from 10-90% of the irrigation
duration of the valve).
The fertilizer always starts in the middle of
the irrigation. Example: A valve is
programmed to irrigate for 1 hour. The fertilizing time is 50%. In practice, the irrigation is performed
as follows: The first 15 minutes, regular irrigation without fertilizer. Then 30 minutes with fertilizer
(50% of the time) followed by 15 minutes of regular irrigation without fertilizer.
Turn the selector to FERTILIZER position
Press
. The cursor appears below the number of the valve. Use

in percents, from 10-90%, at intervals of 10%. The bottom line displays the actual fertilizing time.
You can set fertilizing only for valves with preset irrigation duration programmed at a previous step.
8. SENSOR
Assigning a Valve to a Sensor
The sensor operates by shutting off the valve
to which it is assigned, according to the
conditions (rain, humidity, temperature).
When the sensor is activated, it prevents the
valve from opening. You can assign each
valve to the sensor according to your
requirements.
Turn the selector to SENSOR position
The valve numbers programmed are displayed on the screen. Press
. The cursor appears below
the first selected valve. Use
to assign the valve to the sensor. A triangle is displayed below the
valve assigned to the sensor.
Repeat the same steps for the other valves.
To Cancel Assignment of the Sensor to a Valve
Press
. The cursor appears below the assigned valve. Press
to cancel the assignment of the
valve to the sensor.
