Setting the Run Time (Length of Watering)

1.  Press the   button until the Run Time icon 

 is displayed.

2.  The display will show the last run time 

entered. 

3.  Use the   or   button to change the 

station run time on the display from 1 

minute to 4 hours.

4.  Press the   button to navigate to the next 

station number to be programmed.

Setting Days to Water

1.  Push the   button until the Water Days 

icon   is displayed. The station number 

will also be displayed.

2.  The controller will display seven days of 

the week with a   icon or a   icon above 

the numbered day. The   icon would 

represent an “On” water day, while the   

icon would represent an “Off” watering 

day.

3.  Use the   button to navigate to the next 

station to be programmed.

Selecting Specific Days of the Week to Water

1.  With the   cursor on a specific day (the 

cursor always starts with day 1), press the 

 button to activate that day of the week 

to water. Press the   button to cancel 

watering for that day. After pressing a 

button the cursor automatically advances to 

the next day.

2.  Repeat step 1 until all desired days have 

been selected. The selected days will show 

with a   to indicate their status ON. The last 

 is the last watering day for the program.

Selecting Interval Watering

With this option you can select interval 

watering from 1 to 31 days.

1.  With the   cursor on day 7, press the   

button until the 

 interval watering 

icon and the two calendars appear on the 

display.

Smart Valve Controller (SVC)

2.  Press the   or   button to select the 

number of days between watering days 

(1 to 31). This is called the interval.

The controller will water the next Start 

Time and will then water at the interval 

programmed.

Programming Stations to Operate Together

The SVC-400 allows for automatic watering 

of multiple valves at the same time. Up to 

four stations can operate at the same time. If 

more than one station has the same start time, 

they will operate together (they must also be 

programmed with the same water day). For 

example, if Station 1 and 2 both have been 

programmed with start times of 8:00 am, they 

will both turn on and run at the same time.

The SVC allows for start time stacking 

which is helpful when system capacity is not 

adequate to support the operation of multiple 

valves at the same time. Let's assume a 

scenario in which Station 1 is programmed to 

start at 8:00 am and run for 15 minutes, and 

Station 2 is programmed to start at 8:10 am 

and run for 15 minutes. Station 1 watering run 

time overlaps Station 2 start time. The SVC 

will wait until Station 1 completes watering 

until it starts Station 2. In this scenario, Station 

2 will start at 8:15 am.

System Off

This function permits the user to shut the 

system off for an indefinite period of time.

1.  Press the mode button   until the   

Crossed Sprinkler icon is displayed.

2.  Wait 4 seconds and “Off” will appear on 

the display. The SVC is now in the System 

Off mode and will remain off until it is 

turned back on again.
