Stations Menu
CYCLE & SOAK
This function is used to control runo and puddles when soil
or slope cannot absorb all irrigation at once.
Set the Cycle to the maximum time the station can run at
once, before runo occurs.
Set the Soak to the minimum time the station must wait
before applying another cycle. The controller will water
other stations during the Soak period. For this reason, Cycle
& Soak generally does not extend the overall watering time
signicantly.
The copy and paste shortcuts allow quick duplication of these
settings to stations with similar characteristics.
BLOCKS
A Block is an electronic group of stations that runs at the
same time, for the same run time, within a program. (Blocks
replace “SSGs” in the original ACC.)
To create a Block, dial to the Stations menu and select Blocks.
Enter a Name for the Block if you wish.
Dial down to the station spaces, click and enter the station
numbers that will be in the Block.
• Blocks may also have their own Cycle and Soak settings.
• Blocks may have up to eight stations each.
• There can be up to 64 Blocks per controller.
• They can be mixed in a program with individual stations.
• Programs with Blocks are not limited in any way by other
programs that are running. The controller will not turn on
more stations than it can handle, so there are no articial
rules governing the Blocks.
