Thanks for the comment Jim! That’s awesome to hear. I’m glad I could be of some assistance.

😊😅😊

Nice of you to want to help your neighbors. :)

I'm glad you found it helpful!

Thanks for the kind words! Glad it helped you!

Glad it helped!

Right there with you, bought a Florida home and this thing is confusing as hell! I badly need to get mine up and running and will be working on it using this video in a few days. Finally, something to make sense of this damn controller sheesh!

Glad you found it helpful!

I'm glad you found it helpful!

You bet! Thanks for commenting 😊

Yeah they are not the most intuitive programs in the world lol but not too bad once you get it

Thanks so much for commenting! I really appreciate you saying that.

You’re welcome! Hey I’ll still take it if you have a whole burning in your pocket 😉 haha

Happy to help! Thanks for watching.

I’m glad it helped you, Francisco! I appreciate your comment!

Thank you for your input! I'm sure someone might find that information helpful!

Glad I could help!

Thanks so much! They tend to over complicate their explanations sometimes instead of breaking it down in smaller, more digestible parts. I appreciate your comment!

Oh wow! Glad to help! Keep the money in your pocket.

Yikes! Hopefully you'll have a better idea of what you're up against once it dries a little. If it's a problem they created, then they should help you out!

Hi, thanks for watching! The only reason I like to split up my front and back into separate programs is because sometimes I’ll make an application of something to one part of the yard and not the other and I like to be able to water in that particular section without watering the entire yard. If you don’t have any good reason to separate the two then it’s perfectly fine to put them into one program!

You’re welcome! Happy to help!

Happy to help!

Thank you for the compliment! That means a lot!

If you wanted them all to run through at once, you would need to create a program, or set your program to run on multiple days. If you're willing to switch them on manually, one at a time at the controller, you can take that route by flipping to the manual-one station mode, choosing your duration, then clicking back to the run mode on the dial.

Awesome. I'm glad it helped you!

Glad it was helpful!

You just have to click to the "Start Time", "Run Time", and "Watering Days" notches on your control. The info will all be there.

@@LawnInsider Thank you! I will take a look in the morning!

Glad you found it helpful!

It really differs everywhere based on lawn size, sprinkler heads, and pressure, but my system needs around 15 minutes per zone to put down 1/2” or water.

Glad you found it helpful!

Thanks for watching! Glad I could help.

Thank you so much!!

I've never used it but I believe if you continue to click PAST Saturday on the watering days menu, it takes you to the ODD/EVEN days menu. To turn the system from "off" to "on" you just click it to "RUN".

There is but I've never actually set it up due to the restrictions our city has on watering days!

I would guess it has something to do with the solenoid in the nearest irrigation valve.

You would click to the manual test mode to the left, and switch your zones and run times on the controller there.

Then click it back to run.

Awesome! Glad I could help.

In order for stations 3 and 4 to be “on”, you simply need to set a start time by clicking the plus or minus buttons. The different programs can be as different or as similar as you make them. For instance, I have program A controlling my front yard and program B controlling the back yard.

Yes. Two separate start time will run the complete cycle at two different times. This split is usually utilized to prevent saturation from one long watering, leading to runoff.

I've actually never set up the even and odd days because our city only allows watering 1 day a week most of the year!

Thanks

We have an irrigation valve and main valve near the meter box at the street. I would definitely check there.

Your system is separated into stations. My lawn has 6. The irrigation system runs one station at a time in sequential order until the entire program is complete. For instance, my front yard is station 2. Back yard is divided into stations 4 and 5.

I don’t have a program specifically for my foundation, but I would still recommend around an inch of water a week. Like with your lawn. That can be from rain or irrigation. Ideally, you could install a soaker hose for your foundation. I think you’ll typically run those 2 or 3 times a week. 30 minutes a pop.

So I literally just did this with my husband. He actually stood outside and watched to see if anything came on and where it was. I actually found out I have eight stations that it looks like four are run up front and four are run in the back. I set it to the manual one station that's to the left underneath the system off and tested it out for 1 to 2 minutes by putting it for one or two and then put back to run.. This just gave my husband time to get to that part of the yard front or back to see where it was coming from. Once the one minute I programmed on the manual part finish, I've then tested out the other 7 to see if I actually had 8 different areas of sprinklers. Each time I would put it back on run. That's how I found out that I have a total of 8, where in this video, I think he said he only had a total of six. I hope that helps.

Yes, after the schedule is programmed in, you’ll leave it on run. Unless you’ve been getting a lot of rain and don’t need it that week!

If your stations in the front are scheduled to turn on and they’re not turning on, there might be an issue in here he valve box for those stations.

Rotate the knob to run, leave it there for a couple seconds and then go back to off. You should see “OFF” flashing. Mine does this if I rotate between settings too quickly.

Yes whenever you turn it back on, it will continue the 3 times a week cycle.

I think the easiest way is probably to click over to the manual one station mode and then click the right navigation arrow (repeatedly). The number on the left side of the screen shows you the station number. All you have to do is notice how high the number gets until it cycles back to 1.

You could definitely do that. All you would do to switch between programs during the differing seasons was set all the days as “off” for the season you’re not using. You’ll find that under “water days” on the dial.

The different programs control the different parts of my lawn. A is the front lawn and B is the back.

I would imagine you’ve either set other stations too, or you’ve got multiple start times scheduled.

You may have a problem with your solenoid in the valve box for that station. Aside from that, flipping it to “off” should work.
