5. Operation
Water Timer:
To create the watering programme, the control panel can be
removed from the casing by pressing the unlock button so
that mobile programming is possible (see 4. Initial operation
“ Connect adapter cable of the Soil Moisture Sensor ” ).
The watering programme is run only if the Soil Moisture
Sensor reports “dry” to the Water Timer and the control
panel has been properly plugged in. If the Soil Moisture
Sensor reports “damp” while the programme is running,
watering is stopped.
Watering controlled by Soil Moisture Sensor :
1. Turn Frequency button
F
to the desired watering cycle
(e.g.
day).
day
Watering by day when the Soil Moisture Sensor
reports “dry”.
night
Watering by night when the Soil Moisture Sensor
reports “dry”.
day & night
Watering whenever the Soil Moisture Sensor
Sensor reports “dry”.
2. Turn Run Time button
G
to the desired watering duration (e.g.
30 minutes).
Watering starts within the set watering cycle.
If watering is controlled by the Soil Moisture Sensor a watering
break of 2 hours is activated every time water has been
delivered (so, the soil moisture level can be balanced).
Example :
Watering cycle
=
(day),
Watering duration
= 30 minutes.
Watering is activated when the Soil Moisture Sensor reports “dry”
during the day, and stops depending on the soil moisture level, but
for no longer than the the set duration (in this example 30 minutes).
Time-controlled watering :
1. Turn Frequency button
F
to the desired watering cycle (e.g.
12 hours).
