Watering Program Details

This section covers in detail each of the three parts of
a watering program: watering days, program start times
and station times.
Selecting a Watering Day Schedule
The TMC-212 provides three optional formats to schedule
watering days: Calendar, Interval and Odd/Even.
The Calendar Format
The Calendar format is a recurring 7-day schedule that
begins on Sunday and enables you to select specific
days of the week to water.

Calendar schedule would be

watering days set for Monday (

The Interval Format
The Interval format provides a periodic watering day
schedule ranging from 1 (every day) to 7 (every-7th day)
in one-day increments. For example, to water every third
day, you would select a 3-day interval.
Since the interval schedule is not tied to specific days of
the week, you will need to determine when the interval
will start by selecting the initial watering day.
For example, if you have selected a 3-day Interval and
today is Sunday, you may choose to have the first day of
the Interval on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday. From that
point on, two days will be off and the third day will water.

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

Odd day schedule would be

Day Exclusion Feature
Since the Interval and Odd/Even watering day formats
are not tied to actual calendar days, the Day Exclusion
feature enables you to prevent specific days of the week
from watering. For example, due to water conservation

restrictions, watering is not permitted on Monday. Also,
the lawn is mowed on Friday, so Friday is also excluded.
This example shows the days
excluded (dE) are Monday and
Friday in watering 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 program information.

would be displayed if is turned off.
In this example, program C is off.
