OPERATION FUNCTIONS

• change the operating mode of the controller
• change programs
• operate the controller manually
1. Controller Off/On or Sensor Override Modes:
To turn the controller On, press the Off/On/Sensor Override button
until the arrow appears next to On.
A controller left in the Off mode will still countdown (as if it is running),
but no electrical output will be sent to the valves.
The Sensor Override option allows operation when a sensor has
caused the controller to suspend watering. Again, simply press the
Off/On/Sensor Override button until the arrow is next to Sensor
Override for manual and/or automatic operation to be allowed.
2. Program Manual On/Off (Semi-Automatic)
To manually run an entire program, be sure you are in the On or
Sensor Override mode (see item 1 above), then press the Program
On/Off key. The displayed program letter will blink. If you want to run
this program, wait five seconds and the programmed watering will
begin. If you want to run a different program, press the Next Program
key until the desired program letter is displayed.

The manual cycle will start five seconds after pressing the last button.
If you push any other programming button before the five second
period is complete, the manual mode will not run.
If you wish to stop a manually started zone, press the Zone On/Off key again.
NOTE: If the controller is running a programmed run time, a Manual
start will not function, nor stack. If a programmed run time is stopped
by turning the controller off, the rest of the zones in that start time are
cancelled. When the controller is returned to On mode, it will begin
irrigation at the next scheduled start time. If you are in manual
operation when a programmed start time is scheduled to run, the
programmed start is stacked and will run at the completion of the
manual operation.
4. Manual Advance
This feature allows you to change which zone is running manually
with one step. By pressing one button you can stop the zone running
and start a different zone.
With a zone running manually (see item 3 above) press the zone
or button. When the zone you wish to run next is displayed, the
zone running will stop, and the new zone displayed will begin its
manual run time. You can change the run time with the gray triangle
or keys.
Manual advance only operates when a manually started zone is
running. The zone
run time is complete.

The displayed program letter is important. All programming changes
made are relevant to that program. To make changes to a different
program, press the Next Program key. The program letter will shift
one letter to the right. Any changes made are specific to the program
that is highlighted on the LCD.
When a program letter has been selected, the SmartZone™ will not
return to the status display (show next start time) until after a 1-2
minute delay. This delay is to allow all changes to be made to the
selected program, before the display changes.
