PROGRAM B WATERING
Use program B to establish a different watering schedule, with different
stations and watering times than in program A. Programming is the
same except that the program switch is set to B.
EXAMPLE:
You have programmed stations 1,2 and 3 in program
A to water 10 minutes every day, starting at
6:00
A
.
M
.
Suppose you want to add a fourth station that waters
once a week on Wednesday at
7:00
P.M.
for 30 minutes.
You would need to program station
4
on program B.
To program station 4 to water for 30 minutes, starting Wednesday
at 7:oo
P.M.:
1.
Set the switch to
program
B.
2.
Follow the programming instructions for “Setting the Station Water-
ing Time.” For station 4, select 30 minutes.
3. Follow the programming instructions for “Selecting the Days to
Water.” To select Wednesdays, select day 4 (for the 1st week) and day
11 (for the second week).
4. Follow the programming instructions for “Programming Watering
Start Times.” Select
7:00
p.m. for the start time.
NOTE:
In this example, station 4 is the only station with a
watering time; therefore, it will be the only station
operating in program B.
NOTE:
You may water up to six times per day with station
watering time in both programs, or use Option 4, Loop
Operation (page 24), for unlimited start times.
