TERM DEFINITION
START TIME The time the program begins watering the first programmed station.
VALVE
Supplies water to a specific station or area. The opening and closing of the valve
is accomplished through electrical current supplied by the sprinkler timer.
MASTER VALVE
Typically located at the main water source. Turns on and off water for the entire
irrigation system when not in use.
MULTIPLE
START TIMES
A controller feature that allows a program to be operated multiple times on the
same watering day.
OVERLAPPING
PROGRAMS
When a “Start Time” is set for a program before the previous program has
completed.
PROGRAM
(A OR B)
Individual programs as set by the user. Each program operates independently.
If one program overlaps the other the programs will be “stacked.” After the first
program finishes the next program will begin.
RAIN DELAY
A feature that postpones the running of a scheduled watering program for a
specific duration.
SOLENOID
The electrical part on an irrigation valve that opens and closes the valve.
SPRINKLER TIMER

Battery Compartment
To Remove
Replacing the Battery
Your timer requires a CR2032 Lithium battery.
• The battery will maintain your program in case of
an AC power loss.
• Battery should last approximately one year.
• Open by sliding the battery tray out to the right.
• Insert one CR2032 battery into the compartment
with the + side up.
• Slide back into place.
A weak or missing battery can cause the time, date,
and program to be erased after a power failure. If
this happens, you will need to install a fully charged
battery and reprogram the timer.
Tip: Replace battery every year, to avoid loss of
programming.
Note: A battery alone will not operate the valves in your
sprinkling system. The sprinkler timer transformer must
be connected to an AC line voltage source.
