assigning solar sync to programs
Once Solar Sync is installed it must be assigned to a program in order for
that program's run times to be modified using the Solar Sync seasonal
adjustment value. Even if no programs are assigned to Solar Sync seasonal
adjustment, the controller will continue to collect the Solar Sync ET data.
(See Set Seasonal Adjustment section under Solar Sync Adjust for details.)

programming solar sync delay

I-Core with built in Solar Sync has the ability to delay the automatic, daily
update of the seasonal adjustment value from Solar Sync for up to 99 days.
This option may be an advantage to users who do not want the program
run times to be adjusted by Solar Sync until after a set seeding or over
watering period. The Solar Sync Delay function allows the controller to
operate with a manually set seasonal adjustment value during the delay
period so that programs assigned to the Solar Sync Seasonal Adjustment
(See Set Seasonal Adjustment on page 17) will use this seasonal
adjustment value until the delay period is over. Once the delay period is
over, the programs assigned to Solar Sync will be adjusted based on the
daily update from the Solar Sync weather data.
Turn the dial to the adVanCed feaTures dial position.
1.
Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons to scroll to the solar sync delay position.
2.
Press the + button to enter.
3.
Use the + and – buttons to set number of days of delay. The default
setting is 0 (no delay)
Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons to scroll to the seasonal adjust during
4.
delay position. Use the + and – buttons to modify the Seasonal Adjust
during delay (if desired) from the default setting
of 100%.
