SETTING UP WATERING PROGRAMS
Up to six Programs may be entered, each requiring the programming of:
• Watering days – applied to all Station numbers and Start Times
• Start times – up to six
• Station numbers - up to four or six, depending on the model
• Station Run Times – may be dierent for each Station
For example, Program 3 may be set to water on Mondays and Thursdays (Watering Days), at 7am and
7pm (Start Times), and water Station 1 for 20 minutes, Station 2 for 10 minutes, and Station 4 for 30
minutes (Run Times).
An example of the use of six start times is the watering of a new lawn in very hot weather. It might be
watered for 10 minutes at 6am, 10am, 1pm, 3pm and 5pm.

which starts on Monday and ends on Sunday.
