No Water Windows prevent any automatic irrigation
from occurring during certain hours, by Program. This
can be used to protect high traffic areas from accidental
programming, or the results of Seasonal Adjust, during
busy times of day.
Start in any other dial position, hold the Information
button down, and turn the dial to Set Program Start Times.
Release the Information button.
The display will now permit programming of No Water
Windows.
To set a No Water Window
1. Use the Program button to select the program for
which a No Water Window is desired.
2. Use the +/- button to set the time for the beginning
of the No Water Window ("FROM") in hh:mm format,
including AM/PM if applicable.
3. Use the down arrow to move to the "TO" position, to
set the end of the No Water Window.
4. Use +/- to set the end of the window, also in hh:mm
format.
The No Water Window is now set. Use the Program button
to set a No Water Window for another Program, or exit the
dial position to save the settings.
No Water Window rules
• Each Program may have a different No Water Window.
• If the operator attempts to program a Start Time that
falls withing a No Water Window, the display will flash
a warning. If the warning is ignored, the Start Time will
be saved, but will not run during the No Water Window.
44
If a start time has already been programmed, and the
operator attempts to enter a No Water Window which
overlaps the start time, the display will flash a warning.
• If a Program starts at a "legal" time, but runs past
the beginning of a No Water Window, irrigation will
be stopped (display will show "Suspend"). If the No
Water Window ends and the program still has time
left, the irrigation will resume where it should be for
that time of day. Any irrigation that was suspended
during the No Water Window will be missed.
Likewise, if a start time has already been programmed
and the operator attempts to enter in a No Water
Window, and the start time falls within the No Water
Window time period being set, the display will flash a
warning as well.
• Programs that continue into a No Water Window
because of Cycle & Soak settings, or because of
Seasonal Adjust settings, will also be suspended.
However, there will be no warning in the display
when these changes are made at Cycle & Soak or
Seasonal Adjust.
• In version 4 and later, an ATTENTION message will be
displayed whenever a Non-Water Window violation
causes watering to be missed, and the missed stations
will be listed in the Station Log.
