schedules in one screen, set schedule and zone details, set rain sensors to the schedules, perform diagnostics test, check firmware version and
reset the controller to factory defaults.

Zone Runtimes

The Zone Runtimes function is where you can set any of the zones to any of the three schedules (A, B and C). All the zones are listed from
least to greatest. You can then set any zone to a schedule by entering a runtime to its corresponding schedule column.

and SOAK – This function is used to break the zone's runtime into shorter cycles to allow the water to penetrate the
soil and avoid runoff or wasted water.
The cycle time is the length of time the zone will run before entering a soak time.
The soak time is set as a delay between zone cycles. It is usually used to allow water to penetrate the soil into the root system.
Allowing a soak time prevents water waste from water runoff during irrigation. Water runoff can occur when the applied
irrigation is higher than the absord rate of the soil being irrigated. The excess water will then accumulate on top of the soil and
will form a runoff stream carrying water away from where it should be applied.
The cycle and soak will continue until the total runtime for the zone has been met.
