Appendix A: Scheduling Chart
Before you begin programming, it is a good idea to chart your watering schedule, taking into account the schedule
for all stations and how often you want to repeat the schedule. For specific programming instructions, see page 13.
A sample schedule appears below. A blank schedule that you can copy and fill in appears on the following pages.
