24-Hour Clock Mode
The ECx is set to display time in the 12-hour clock mode.
If you prefer to use a 24-hour clock mode (military time)
select this option by following the steps below.
15-Second Run Delay
The 15-second run delay feature is useful for sprinkler
systems utilizing a pump or master valve. For example, a
pump usually requires a few seconds to build pressure
after first turning on. With the 15-second run delay
selected, the pump would be running (or the master
valve would open) 15 seconds before the first zone
begins watering. A 15-second delay would also occur
between zone operations. This helps ensure that one
valve is closed before another valve opens.
Note: A 2-second run delay will occur if this option is not
selected.
Caution: To prevent timer
damage, ensure trans-
former is disconnected
during this procedure.
1. Using small wire cutters,
clip jumper (13) to select
24-hour clock mode. Clip
jumper (12) to select
15-second run delay.
The ECx has a permanent watering schedule within its
memory to assist you in two ways. First, it will restore
watering operation in case your watering program is lost
due to a power interruption lasting longer than the bat-
tery life. This prevents your landscape from going unwa-
tered if the power outage occurs while you are away.
Secondly,
if you do not want to program your ECx,
you may use the permanent watering schedule to
operate your sprinklers. Just set the current time
and day and your ECx will be ready to operate auto-
matically.
The permanent watering schedule operates as follows:
When power is applied, the timer clock is set to 12:00
AM
Sunday. Program A has a Calendar watering schedule
set to water every day. One program start time is set for
5:00
AM (5:00) and a run time of 10 minutes is set for
each zone. Programs
B and C are turned Off and have
no program start times or run times.
Note: An optional feature is provided which enables the
The ECx memory to be reset to the permanent program
or cleared completely if you choose. If you do not want to
use this option, skip the next procedure “Resetting The
Timer Memory” and continue at page 16 to begin pro-
gramming.
