You must return dial to RUN for Manual Test operation to
begin.
Manual Test will detect open circuits (less than 30 mA draw)

4.0 Programming for
Smart Watering Mode
Weathermatic’s patented SMART mode overrides user-assigned zone run times and calculates zone run
times based on the location of the site, inputs by zone, and weather readings from the SLW Series On-Site
Weather Sensor. SMART mode is designed to help you protect your landscaping, reduce wasteful run-o ,
and minimize your water costs.
Warning: Smart mode positions on the dial can only be selected when an optional SLW Series On-Site
Weather Sensor accessory is installed. Additionally, Basic Program Function must be set up completely
before setting up SMART mode. SMART Mode replaces the Zone Run Times with a calculated value using the
SMART settings.
4.1 Set ZIP Code or Latitude
SMART operation rst requires that the SmartLine®
Controller know “where in the world” it is located. Users in
the USA can set location by ZIP Code. Users outside of the
USA can set location by latitude. Use UP and DOWN buttons
to select ZIP Code (USA) or LATITUDE. To nd your latitude,
see World Latitudes in the Reference section.
If you are setting a ZIP Code, push NEXT. Display will show
5 numerical positions for ZIP Code settings. Use UP and
DOWN buttons to set the ashing number. Then push NEXT to ash the next number. Use UP and DOWN
buttons to set second number. Continue process until all 5 numbers of your ZIP Code are set.
If you are outside the USA, you will enter LATITUDE. You can use the UP and DOWN buttons to choose any
latitude between 60 degrees south and 60 degrees north. 0 degrees setting is marked as EQUATOR.
4.2 Enter Smart Data for Zones
Enter SMART data for zones: Sprinkler Type, Plant Type, Soil Type, and MORE/LESS. The SmartLine®
controller cannot calculate run times without SMART data for each zone and without Zone Run Times
assigned to each operational zone, which serve to back up SMART mode.
