5.2.4 More/Less (optional)
When your SmartLine®
controller is set in SMART
mode, the Seasonal %
Adjust in the BASIC mode
is inactivated since the
automatic adjustments
are made daily rather than
monthly. You can use MORE/
LESS to fine tune the run time
calculation by zone in the SmartLine® controller by –50 to +25%.
Use UP and DOWN buttons to select % adjustment. Use NEXT
and BACK buttons to move between zones.
This feature can be useful to reduce run time adjustments for
shady and partially shaded zones. The table provided may be
used for general
shade guidelines.
Other factors may
result in needing
to use MORE/
LESS for fine
tune adjustments
including sprinkler
eciency, zone
eciency, and wind. Sprinkler eciency varies between types
of sprinklers and the manufacturer’s design. Zone eciency
varies based on the design layout of sprinklers in a zone,
sometimes overlapping or sometimes not. High winds can serve
to dry out plant and soil to increase the need for water. For
optimum results considering the many unique variables in each
zone, users should periodically monitor plant life health and
water usage, especially after initial controller setup, so proper
adjustments can be made.

Note: Run/Soak
period can reduce
the need to set
multiple start times
for purpose of preventing
runoff. Using the combination
of multiple start times and
Run/Soak cycles can lead to
extended watering windows
since Run/Soak cycles are
applied to each start time.
