Watering Program Details

This section covers in detail each of the three parts of a watering program – watering days, program start times and zone run times.

Selecting Watering Days

The ECXTRA provides four options for scheduling water- ing days: Calendar, Interval, Odd or Even and Off.

Calendar Schedule

A Calendar schedule enables you to select specific days of the week to water, for example, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This is a seven-day schedule which starts on Sunday and ends on Saturday.

This illustration shows how a

Calendar schedule would be displayed when the control dial is in the watering days position. In this example, program A has watering days set for mo (Monday), we (Wednesday) and fr (Friday).

Interval Schedule

An Interval schedule enables watering days to be select- ed without regard to the actual days of the week. For example, if you want to water every third day, you would select a 3-day Interval. Interval schedules range from

1-day (watering every day) to 7-day (watering every sev- enth day). When an Interval schedule is used, you can choose which day of the week will be the first day of the Interval. The number of days in the Interval determines the available start days. For example, if you have selected a 3-day Interval and today is Sunday, you may choose to

16start the Interval today, Monday or Tuesday.

This illustration shows how an Inter-

val schedule would be displayed. In this example, program B has a 3- day Interval schedule which will start

on Monday.

Odd/Even Schedule

The Odd/Even schedule enables you to select odd or even numbered days of the month as watering days.

This illustration shows how an Odd day schedule would be dis- played.

Day Exclusion

This feature enables you to prevent watering on specific days of the week when using an Interval or an Odd/Even watering day schedule.

In this example, Monday and Fri- day are excluded from program A.

Program Off

Selecting Off suspends the operation of the program when it is not needed. Turning the program off does not alter or erase the watering day schedule of the program, it simply places the program on hold until it is needed. This illustration shows how a pro-

gram would be displayed if its water- ing day schedule is turned off. In this example, program C is off.
