2.0 Getting acquainted with your ProLine™ Controller
No AC: Appears when there is no AC supply to the
controller.
PGM Button: The ProLine™ controller has 4 watering
programs (A, B, C, and D). This is like having 4 controllers
in one. You can assign zones to any program you like
or more than one program except that zones assigned
to Program D cannot be given a run time in A, B, or C.
Program D will operate concurrently with A, B, or C.
Display will alternately show both programs while the
concurrent schedule is running. Program D is normally
used for micro irrigation with low flow and long run times.
Sprinkler zones should be assigned to A, B, or C.
Programs A, B, and C will stack operations. This means
that if your run time for Program A overlaps B or C, then
B will not start until A is completed and so on. If you want
exact start times for all programs, make sure your total
run time for each program can complete before the next
program run is scheduled to start.
RUN MANUAL PROGRAM Button:
Press to initiate a watering operation when the programming
dial is set to the RUN position. The ProLine™ controller will
run Program A. Or, you can push the PGM button before
you push the RUN MANUAL PROGRAM button to select the
program you want to run. You can use the NEXT button to
advance to other zones in a program that you have started.
Run Manual Program will override any omits or delays.
Special Feature: You can also use the RUN MANUAL
PROGRAM button to start a continuous run operation. If
you press and hold the RUN MANUAL PROGRAM button

for 15 seconds, the selected program will operate in a
continuous loop. In other words, it will keep running the
program continuously until the dial is switched to SYSTEM
OFF.
Display With Program Running: When a program is
running, the screen will display: program that is operating;
zone number that is
operating; and run time
remaining. An ORANGE
LED indicates program is
in PAUSE mode waiting
for a programmed delay
in the controller to expire
(run/soak, master valve
delay, zone to zone
delay, omit time). The
display will show the
reason for the pause.
Display With Dial In
SYSTEM OFF Position:
When the ProLine™
controller dial is in the
SYSTEM OFF position,
the processor and clock
continue to operate and
all program values are
retained in the non-
volatile memory. In the
SYSTEM OFF position no
automatic watering will

Note: No
watering will
take place
when the
SENSOR LED is RED. This
indicates a Rain, Freeze
or other type sensor has
tripped, and programs are
prevented from running.
An ORANGE LANGUAGE
LED means watering is
paused temporarily due
to: run/soak, master valve
delay, zone to zone delay,
or omit time. A program
in operation will also
pause if you turn the dial
to any position other than
RUN or SYSTEM OFF. The
program in operation will
resume when you return
the dial to RUN or if there
is no programming activity
for 30 minutes.
