NOTE:
The hidden features described below can
only be entered by starting with the dial in the
RUN
position and holding down various buttons while
the knob is turned to various setup positions.
This makes it virtually impossible for someone to
stumble onto these features.
Cycle and Soak
The Cycle and Soak feature allows the user to split each station’s run
time into more usable, shorter duration waterings. This feature is
particularly applicable for slopes and tight soil (such as clay) because
Cycle and Soak will help prevent excessive run off. You should enter the
Cycle time as a fraction of the station’s watering time and the Soak time
as the minimum soak required before watering the next portion. The
total number of cycles is determined by taking the total programmed
station run time and dividing it by the Cycle time.
For example: Suppose Station 1 required 20 minutes worth of water
but after only 5 minutes, runoff occurred. However, after 10 minutes all
the water was absorbed. The solution would be to program 20 minutes
for the Station Run Time, 5 minutes for the Cycle time, and 10 minutes
for the Soak. Station 1 will then water for 5 minutes and then the rest
of the stations in the program will water. After all the other stations
have watered the controller will check to see if Station 1 had soaked
for at least 10 minutes. If it had, then Station 1 will water for another
5 minutes. This process would continue to repeat itself until Station 1
watered 4 times for 5 minutes each time, a total of 20 minutes.

time from 1 to 60 minutes in
1 minute increments.
5. Press the key to advance
