    Your video helped us so much. Thank you for explaining about the "1st" and "2nd". I thought it meant the 1st station, and the 2nd station and the 3rd and 4th stations, and I was going crazy trying to figure out how to add my 5th station, 6th, 7th and 8th. But YOU are the only one who explained that the 2nd and 3rd, etc, meant setting up additional times to start the watering a 2nd, 3rd time that same day. Thank you, thank you. You are a genius!

    Your instructions were great. Showing what buttons do what, showing what you see in the screen as you made each entry, and telling me what you were going to do and then talking thru actually doing it while I watched. Extraordinarily well done!

    What if I have two stations or zones that I want them to start at different time here there is only duration for zones but the start time is not for individual zone so how I would do it , let’s say I want a zone to start at 8:00 till 9:00 and the other zone start from 11:00 to 12:00 how to do it? Yes there is multiple start times but it’s not for specific zone I’m confused really, there was oldest version of this controller and I find it more easier when it comes to start time for zones individually

    Small correction., off is during winter where we no need to water. Since the sensor is onn it won’t water during rainy days.

    Mine was running ok, it started out with 6 zones, but only 5 zones were setup to water, for some reason only 4 are running, and I can’t find or even see the other 2 zones which is zone 5 and 6, so no w only zone 1 to 4 are watering and there should be 5 zone,
    and zone 6 was never setup from the start, but it was visible.
    So how do I get my zone 5 visible again up and running❓
    Thank you‼️

      Usually programs don’t run at the same time if you set program A start time at 5am program B start time has to be different time. Program B and C is only use to water an e specific area less or more times

    I beg to differ. Programming is logical and quick. forget the manual. Just follow these simple instructions and you are set. In my case, the Seasonal Adjust is an overkill but if you want to fiddle with it, just remember that you have done adjustments to it. Put a sticky note on the unit so that you can reset when you are finished with it.

  • @larabarmi9405
    @larabarmi9405 Рік тому

    I don't get what the Program A, B and C os for.
    I think they arw different prgrams that you can save, but not sure how to get the program to run which one you choos to run. For example, i want a program to run even days and then i want a program to run Tuesday and Saturdays, and then a program for everyday. It all depends on the seasons and water restrictions. This is hard to figure out.

    I hate these things so much. I've had 2 of them, and neither one worked at all. so overly complex and finicky - total garbage. I know many of my neighbors have them too, so you can see them putting out a hose and sprinkler when their lawn needs water. Don't buy one of these. Complete garbage. They just don't work.
