4.0 Manual Start Functions

4.0 Manual Start Functions
The SmartLine® controller has two dial positions for manual
system starts:

4.1 Manual Zone

Manual Zone allows user
to water a single zone for
specified period of time. Use
NEXT and BACK buttons to
select zone. Use UP and DOWN
to select run time for the zone.
A zone can be operated with
the Manual Zone function
regardless of whether the zone
has an assigned run time. You
must return dial to RUN for Manual Zone operation to begin. All
manual watering operations will override watering day settings,
omit settings, and rain/freeze events.

4.2 Manual Test

The Manual Test can be used to set a test run time for all zones
which have an assigned zone run time in any program. Any
zone without an assigned
zone run time will NOT run in
the Manual Test. Use UP and
DOWN buttons to set Manual
Test run time. The Manual Test
can be set to run a minimum
of 10 seconds or a maximum
of 10 minutes. You must return
dial to RUN for Manual Test
operation to begin.
MANUAL ZONE
MANUAL TEST
Manual Test will detect open circuits (less than 30 mA draw) on
any used zone or a short on any output (master valve or zone).
If the display indicates FAULT while running a Manual Test, refer
to Advanced Menu to identify the FAULT.

5.0 Programming for Smart Watering Mode

Weathermatic's patented SMART mode overrides user assigned
zone run times and calculates zone run times based on the
location of the site, inputs by zone, and weather readings from
the SLW Series On-Site Weather Station. SMART mode is
designed to help you protect your landscaping, reduce wasteful
run off, and minimize your water costs.
Warning: Smart mode positions on the dial can
only be selected when an optional SLW Series
On-Site Weather Station accessory is installed.
Additionally, Basic Program Function must be
set up completely before setting up SMART mode. SMART
Mode replaces the Zone Run Times with a calculated value
using the SMART settings.

5.1 Set ZIP Code or Latitude

SMART operation first requires
that the SmartLine® Controller
know "where in the world" it
is located. Users in the USA
can set location by ZIP Code.
Users outside of the USA can
set location by latitude. Use
UP and DOWN buttons to
ZIP CODE/LATITUDE
