      Check the OMIT feature of the panel as the watering days may all be set to OMIT. check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/8bJlq23j2SA/v-deo.htmlsi=nvRpGoDAo6x8K5Nx. You may also need to factor reset your programming chip and write a new program to the panel if the previous video does not fix the problem. check out these 2 videos: ua-cam.com/video/qA22xOGtzbo/v-deo.htmlsi=0gg5I3tw736sMbWk (this is for panels manufactured from 2012 through 2018) or ua-cam.com/video/NcfTdwwFTOE/v-deo.htmlsi=f5VWtMNRCtemKKHU (this is for panels manufactured from April 2018 to present day)

    That is normal to see USED for PGM D. Do you have more than 1 Start Time set for your watering program. If you have set Start Times 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8. That will start the program up to 8 times. These are not zone numbers, they are program start times for all of the zones within a program.

    • @davidstraight405
      @davidstraight405 3 місяці тому

      USED is normal as that indicates that you are in of the two program types. Stacking programs are A, B and C while program D is the Concurrent program. Program D will always display USED if you have set the zone to operate in programs A, B or C preventing you from using it in the program. It would also read the same (USED) for programs A, B and C if you had set run time in program D to prevent you from using the zone in the other programs. You may have multiple start times set (as there can be up to 8 start times per program) for the program you when you only require one. Or you may need to reset the programming chip and write a new program to the panel due to an error on the chip from a power surge. Check out these two links: ua-cam.com/video/qA22xOGtzbo/v-deo.htmlsi=MZHSBrxovo9kWB6l or ua-cam.com/video/NcfTdwwFTOE/v-deo.htmlsi=dEAqg7_3cv68-b2L to factory reset the programming chip of the panel.

      When you are in the Start Times position of the panel, simply press the NEXT button to transition from one start time to the next and use the UP or the DOWN buttons to adujst the time to start the supplemental schedule. There can be up to 8 Start Times per program depending on the controller's settings. If you are unable to see more than the 1st or 2nd start time, rotate the dial to the ADV MENU position of the panel and the screen would most commonly display TESTS. Press the UP button until the display reads NUM STRT and then press the NEXT button to enter this function. The doisplay will now read the current STart Time settings, which can range anywhere from 1 through 8. Press the UP or the DOWN button to adjust the number of available Start Times. When finished with your adjustments, return to the Program STart Times position and adjust your supplemental start times as needed.

      In an irrigation system, it is not generally possible to run an individual Sprinkler head without capping off the other heads within the zone. Some heads you may be able to adjust the set screw and close off the nozzle or emissions device if so equipped. You’re really only able to activate the zone as a whole.

  • @jennasmith4113
    @jennasmith4113 2 роки тому

    To clarify, model 3.3O and older can only run concurrent programs if program A, B or C, and D, have a start time that overlaps, but model 10.04 "G5" can have all programs overlap if in Advanced Menu, Concurrent Programs is set to 4 max. In the latter model, what is the default? Also, what year did the latter model become available?

    • @davidstraight405
      @davidstraight405 2 роки тому

      For panels 3.30 and older, program D is the only program that can run concurrently with programs A, B or C. The A, B and C programs are Stacking programs and will wait for the running program to complete before activating the next. Program D will run during any other program that is in operation. The G5 panels can run any programs concurrently depending on the MAX number of programs allowed to run at one time.

      If you have no display unless you have a 9V battery in the back of the panel, the panel will need to be replaced. The part can be ordered from your local Weathermatic distributor using the p/n PLCPSA. You may find it cheaper just to replace the controller.

    • @davidstraight405
      @davidstraight405 2 роки тому

      Sorry, but no. The Multimeter function is for testing the electrical connections between the controller through the wiring to the valve(s). The controller itself cannot be set to turn off by KWH used. There may be Smart technology that could do this, but that would be managed most likely at the breaker and not the controller. It may also require additional equipment to monitor and manage the consumption. Power management is outside my scope of work.

    • @davidstraight405
      @davidstraight405 3 роки тому

      You can only use the smart watering features if the system is equipped with one of our SLW1 or SLW5 weather stations. These weather stations report the daily temperatures to the control panel so that it can intern create the runtime schedules for each individual zone. The system must know the ZIP Code, the sprinkler type, the plant type and soil type to execute these calculations. See the links below for the wired and wireless weather stations.

      If you don’t have a WeatherStation the controller should not let you place it into smart mode. If you operate the controller in the basic mode, you’re in charge of the programming. Make sure that your program has a start time that your watering days are set and each zone has the set time needed to satisfy the turf and landscape.
