ESP-LXME Controller
Set Up Cycle+Soak
TM
The ESP-LXME controller Cycle+Soak
TM
feature allows water to be
applied to stations intermittently and without creating complex
programs. It can apply to any station and is useful for locations such as
hillsides which can be dicult to irrigate eectively.
Cycle+Soak consists of two settings, the cycle time (how long a station
will run before soaking) and soak time (how long irrigation is paused
before applying another cycle). For example, a station can be set up to
receive 15 minutes of irrigation in three 5 minute cycles, with two 10
minutes periods of soak time in between waterings.
NOTE: Cycle+Soak settings apply to stations no matter which
programs it may be used in.

NOTE: Consider using short Soak times, particularly if your
watering schedule or Water Window is short. Long soak times
could prevent irrigation from completing prior to the end of the
Water Window. See previous Water Windows for more details.
Repeat this process to set up Cycle+Soak on other stations.
