Adjusting the day change time will allow programs to start throughout the night on the same active day schedule. Programs with runtimes beyond the day change time are allowed to finish.

System Mode: – Use this function to toggle between Golf and Commercial modes.

LP Shutdown: – The TDC system can be equipped with a low pressure system to detect system failure. Use this function to set the wait time until the controller reevaluates the low pressure condition before shutting the whole system down. This delay will eliminate system shutdown when pressure intermittently fluctuates.

Sta Delay: – Use this function to set the controller’s station delay. The station delay determines the wait time before next station is activated when a station has concluded its watering cycle. This delay is used to allow the system to normalize between station activations.

Example: The controller is set with a maximum simultaneous active stations of 7. All programs in the controller will adhere to the 7 maximum active stations and each can be adjusted with a lower limit (6, 5, 4, etc.).
