sprinkler system. The sprinkler timer has a built-in transformer
that must be connected to an AC voltage source.
Section 3: Programming with
Easy-Set Logic
A note about multiple programs
Your sprinkler timer provides the flexibility of using 3
independent programs (A,B,C). A program is where you store
all of your sprinkler settings. It consists of a group of stations
set to specific start times and run times. Multiple programs
allow you to run different valves on different days with
different run times. While many applications only require one
program (A), using multiple programs can be useful for drip
areas, newly planted lawn, or rotary sprinkler stations. Using
programs to group stations with similar water needs will
maximize irrigation efficiency.
Primary programming can be accomplished in just a few basic
steps.
