Setting a Basic Program - Time
Based
Overview:
Standard Mode allows you to create traditional irrigation programs using Programs A, B,
and C — just like Hunter X-Core® or Pro-C ® controllers. This mode offers less flexibility
than Hydrawise Advanced Mode. Key features include:
Six programs available with six start times each
Zones already labeled in the program for easier selection
Once a zone is selected, the zone run time is visible
Predictive WateringTM options that only apply to that program
Time-based watering will water on specific days (unless delayed by rainfall or forecast
rainfall) and will vary the watering length based on your watering triggers. The controller
will use the Watering Triggers you’ve set to automatically adjust its watering schedule.
Steps:
Click on ZONES AND SCHEDULES from the home dashboard, then select PROGRAMS.
Scroll over to ADD PROGRAM and click on the icon.
1. Enter in a PROGRAM NAME, then select the watering type TIME BASED. Click
NEXT.
2. Choose the WATER DAYS (Blue means water). Options are listed below.
Specific days to water (most common)
Even or Odd day watering
Interval days - See article here [1] for details
3. Enter in START TIMES (Up to six max), then select NEXT.
4. Select ZONES. The edit box will only appear if you check the zone box. Add RUN
TIMES using the up arrows in the box. When finished here, select NEXT.
5. Predictive watering adjustments - Adjusted based on your water triggers [2]
Monthly adjustments can be made using a chart as well. This will allow the run times set in a
program to change by month as a global percentage (e.g; June 80%, July 90%, August 100%).
