RAIN BUCKET SETUP
If a controller is not wired to a rain bucket, the RAIN
BUCKET SETUP screen will only have one setting
(figure 8). This setting is described below:
Let Rain Only Build Up to: This setting determines
the maximum amount of rain that can be stored in
the rain table. In figure 8 the controller will stop
storing rain data in the rain table if the Maximum 24
Hour Total reaches 1.50 inches of rain.
Note: If you are not sharing rain data using the
Calsense Command Center software, this setting will
have no effect on irrigation.

Here you will have the option of enabling or
disabling the use of negative hold-over (rain) for any
of the controller's seven programs. If you select
YES, Negative hold-over will be used for that
program to reduce irrigation run times. If you select
NO, rain will have no effect on irrigation run times for
that program. If there is no rain bucket installed and
you are not sharing rain data through the Calsense
Command Center program, these settings will have
no effect on irrigation.
