For most watering programs set only Start Time #1. The #1

Time will water all zones with Zone Run Times set in that

program in consecutive order. Extra start times will re-run

all zones. Extra start times may be used for new planting

grow-in or other special local conditions. Unused start times

must be set in the OFF position. To set a start time at OFF,

press on either UP or DOWN button until you reach the OFF

position located between 11:50 PM and Midnight.

When setting program start times, check the program icon

in the display to see whether you are working in A, B, C or D.

Use PGM button to move between programs. Use NEXT and

BACK buttons to move between start times. Use UP and DOWN

buttons to set each start time desired. Start times are selectable

in 10-minute increments.

Push PGM button to assign zone time in one or more programs.

Care has to be taken when programming. You need to have

awareness of the hydraulic capacity of the irrigation system

piping and points of connection so that they are not exceeded.

Further care should be taken so the electrical capacity of the

controller is not exceeded. The electrical capacity is 750 mA

or 3 irrigation solenoids. A pump start relay may require more

mA than a solenoid. Keep aware of these boundaries when

scheduling stations to initiate and operate simultaneously.

Note: Be sure you select the AM/PM time as desired by

scrolling past 12. (For international users, the display will show

international hours instead of AM/PM.)

7.4 Zone Run Times

Your SmartLine® controller will display

remaining hours, minutes and seconds

when a zone is watering. However, in

this position you are only required to

set minutes (or hours and minutes)

for each zone as desired for operation

time. Seconds are not selectable.

Use NEXT and BACK buttons to select zone for run time

setting. All zones are selectable from 1 minute to 9 hours and 55

minutes. Run times of OFF to 59 minutes are selectable in one

minute increments. Run times of 1 hour to 9 hours 55 minutes

are selectable in 5-minute increments. Use UP or DOWN buttons

to set flashing time values for each zone. If a zone is not to be

used, set it to OFF.

Caution: If an unused zone is turned on and activates a pump

start relay, the pump may overheat or cause a pipe to burst. To

prevent operating a pump with no flow (dead heading), make

sure all unused zones are set to OFF.

7.5 Days to Water

In this dial position you can select

a DAYS, INTERVAL, or ODD/EVEN

schedule. Use UP and DOWN buttons

to select which type of schedule you

want in your SmartLine® controller.

Remember to check the Program

(PGM) selection showing in the display. You can select a

different watering schedule for each program if you wish.

If you select DAYS, then use the NEXT button to step through

each day of the week and the UP and DOWN buttons to select
