Hold Sta: Use this menu item to skip scheduled operations for this station or switch for a specified period of
time. Select the hold duration from 01–30 days, Permanent or None. Holds do not affect manual
operation.
Is Switch A station output can be configured as either a station or switch. A running station will turn the
motherboard pump output on and will turn off during rain holds. A switch will not.
Scheduled Watering
Scheduled Watering consists of watering from locally-scheduled
programs in Local Mode or watering from the SBF List in Central Mode.
Central Mode
Lists download from Lynx will water in Central mode. Programs will not.
Lists cannot be edited at the faceplate.
Local Mode - Programming a Program
1. Select the Program number.
2. Select a percent adjust number.
3. Specify a hold from zero to thirty days, or even permanent.
4. Select the type of irrigation program:
• Basic: Irrigation is activated every day at the specified time
for the specified duration.
• Advanced: Irrigation occurs at specified intervals
from 1 to 30 days (2 days pictured)
or by selecting individual days over a two week period.
• Grow In: A Grow In program is a user-defined additional irrigation cycle that runs in addition to the regular
irrigation schedule. This is typically done when plants, trees, or lawn need extra water. A new sod lawn, for
example, would benefit from a grow-in program for a couple of weeks or month.
5. For interval schedules, it is necessary to define today’s day number. As in, if you specify a five day interval, and
specify today’s day as day 3, then the five day interval will start in two days.
6. Specify a Start time.
7. Specify a Syringe time (if any).
(A syringe operation is a specific user-defined programmed additional “injection” of water into the normal irrigation
cycle. A syringe operation might be scheduled to cool artificial turf on a hot day, for example.)
8. Specify a Repeats number. This is the number of times a syringe operation will run, separated by Soak times.
9. Specify a Soak time.
Soak time is the time between syringe operations during which irrigation will not occur. It gives the water a chance to
soak into the soil without running off, before the next syringe repeat operation commences.
10. Set run times for individual stations attached to the satellite.
11. Specify a Simultaneous number.
Besides setting up an irrigation program, it is also possible to review the Station Based Flow Management Lists, which are
the automatic programs downloaded from the Central computer running Lynx software.
