The 710A controller’s main feature includes 20 preset programs for sprays and
drip irrigation based on three years of historical evapotranspiration (ET) from
various climate regions.
How DIG’s 710A controller operates using Historical Evapotranspiration (ET):
After programming the watering schedule, watering start time and watering
duration, the user can select one of the preset SimpleSmart
™
evapotranspiration
(ET) programs for spray or drip irrigation systems. Reference CHART B on page
22 and choose from the region description.
Selecting SP01 through SP20 sets the 710A controller to water a predetermined
number of minutes per month. The amount to water is pre-programmed into the
controller and is determined by which program (SP) is selected and by the month.
NOTE: If you have already set a SimpleSmart
™
ET preset (example: SP02)
and then change the run time, your SimpleSmart
™
program will be turned
OFF. You must reactivate the SimpleSmart
™
programming each time you
adjust your run time.
