PROGRAMMING FUNDAMENTALS .....................................................................................
A watering program can be created to operate valves in numerical
sequence one at a time. All that is required to create a watering program
is to:
1. Select a program (
A, B, or C) by pressing the button on the
controller (it is recommended to start with Program A).
2. Set a program start time (only one program start time is required to
activate a watering program).
3. Set the run time for each valve assigned to the program, and
4. Set the days that you would like the watering program to run.
We have included an example that will better illustrate the operation
of a program:
Let’s say you have a program start time set for 6:00 AM. Stations 1 and
2 are going to have a run time of 15 minutes and station 3 is set for 20
minutes. Please note that stations 4, 5 and 6 have not been included in
this program, we will water them on separate programs.
Going back to our previous example, at 6:00
AM the controller will activate
the watering cycle. The sprinklers on station 1 will run for 15 minutes
and then automatically shut off. The controller will automatically
advance to station 2 sprinklers. These sprinklers will also run for
15 minutes and then shut off. Then, watering on station 3 will begin
automatically. The sprinklers will turn on for 20 minutes and shut off
automatically. Since no times were programmed for stations 4, 5 and 6,
the controller skips them. This will conclude the program and end the
water cycle at 6:50
AM.
As shown in the above example, only one program start time was
required to run the three different stations. The controller automatically
moves to the next station without the need for additional start times.
We realize that many consumers will have variations in their plant watering
needs, so at Hunter we equipped the SRC Plus with three different
programs A, B, and C. These programs are completely independent of
each other and give you the ability to have three coexisting timers in
one controller.
