Irrigation Percentage – Change the
Irrigation Duration in %
You have an option to increase or decrease
the duration of the irrigation in %, in all the
valves.
You have 2 options:
1. An identical increase in % for all valve
groups
2. A different percent for each group: A, B, C and independent I program.
90% to 10% – a decrease at intervals of 10%
110% to 190% – an increase at intervals of 10%
NOTE: When a % change rate was set for one of the programs (A, B, C, I) you cannot access
All. When a % change rate was set for ALL you cannot access A, B, C, I.
Turn the selector to PERCENTAGE position
Press
until the cursor appears below the desired program, A, B, C, I or All. Use

10. RAIN OFF
Use this option to cancel the control of the remote over some valves or all valves, temporarily
(e.g., when it rains). The irrigation program is saved but the irrigation will not start.
You can lock out all the valves together in ALL position and also lockout one valve or several valves
according to valves assignment to program A, B, C, or I. The lockout is for 1 day up to 99 days.
When the Rain Off duration ends, the controller resumes the original program.
NOTE: If you locked out a valve or program you cannot lockout all the valves through ALL.
If all the programs and valves were locked out through All, you cannot lockout single
programs.
Turn the selector to RAIN OFF position

This mode enables you to:
• Open a program/valve manually from the remote
• Shut a currently open valve
• Close the program
• Shut all the currently operating valves/programs or those in line to start
• Send from the Remote to the controller: current time, increase % of the irrigation, Rain Off
• Serial test of all the valves
Turn the selector to MANUAL position

Use
or
to select the desired controller (according to code number). Use
or
to select the
desired operation (see all the options on the next page). After you select the option, send the

• A valve with no defined irrigation duration cannot be opened manually.
• The fertilizing valve opens with the valves to which it is assigned and according to the
fertilizing %.
• You may use
or
to move among the programs and the individual valves continuously. You
cannot open individual valves which are assigned to a program.
NOTE: Manual operation or any change in the program stops the operation of valves which
are open at that time.
In a cyclical program, the irrigation starts again. Sending current time, irrigation %, Rain Off
does not stop the operation of the valves.
