The ECx timer has three modes of operation: Automatic,
Manual and Off. In the Automatic mode the timer tracks
the time and day and operates the automatic watering
schedules. The Manual mode enables the watering pro-
grams to be started and controlled manually at any time.
The Off mode shuts off all watering activity and prevents
any zones from operating automatically or manually.
The Rain Delay and Season Adjust control features are
provided to enable quick, temporary changes in operation
to help compensate for variables in weather and season.
Each of the operating modes and control features are
explained in this section of the guide and can be found
on the following pages:
• Automatic Operation, page 27
• Manual Operation, page 28
• Watering Control Features, page 29
• Turning Off The ECx, page 30
• Using the Rain Delay Feature, page 30
• Using the Season Adjust Feature, page 31
In the Automatic mode, the ECx keeps track of the cur-
rent time, day of the week and the automatic watering
program schedule. Automatic operation will occur when-
ever a programmed watering day and start time match
the current time and day.
The Automatic mode is selected when the control dial is
in the
AUTO/ON position. While in the automatic mode,
the display will show two types of information: status and
operation.
This illustration shows the
status display. In this
example the current time is
2:45
PM and the current
day is Monday. Programs
A and B are active on Monday.
When watering starts, the operating display appears and
is shown for the duration of the program.
In this example, program
A
is operating. Zone 1 is
watering and has 10 min-
utes of run time remaining.
Zones 2, 3 and 4 will oper-
ate during this program.
Note: If the control dial remains in any other position
(except
OFF) for more than 8 minutes, the timer reverts to
the Automatic mode.
Note: The position of the PROGRAMS switch does not
determine which program will run during automatic con-
troller operation. In other words, if a program has an
assigned watering day schedule, start time and a zone
with run time, it will operate automatically regardless of
the position of the
PROGRAMS switch.
