The Specia l Funct ions dia l positi on prov ides opt ional contro l featu res spec ifically for pu mp syste m opera tion. Pump/Master Valve control circuit operation is active (On) with two seconds of delay time (turns on two sec- onds before the first zone begins watering) but can be turned Off for each watering program as needed.
The ECXTRA timer has three modes of operation: Auto- matic, 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 zones and watering programs to be started and con- trolled manually at any time.
31 Manual operation enables the automatic watering pro- grams or selected zones assigned to the program to be started manually. During operation, temporary changes can be made to increase or decrease the zone run time, step through the zone sequence and pause or stop watering using the “Watering Control Features” described on page 32.
The following watering control features enable you to fur- ther control the watering program during operation . All watering control features apply to watering programs started manually and automatically. To Pa us e Wat er ing Press the +/ on and –/ off buttons at the same time .
33 This feature enables all watering operations to be delayed from 1 to 7 days. For example, rain is forecast in your area for the next two days. Instead of turning the timer off (and possibly forgetting to turn it back on), a rain delay of 3 days can be easily entered.
Change s in se ason and tempera ture ge nerally require a change in zon e run ti me to ma intain a health y lands cape and co nserve water. T he Seaso n Adjus t featur e enabl es you to change the run time of all zo nes assi gned to a progra m, simu ltaneous ly up or down, in 10% i ncremen ts – with just t he press of a bu tton.
When the control dial is turned to the off position, the timer immediately shuts off any watering operation cur- rently in progress. Leaving the control dial in the off position will prevent all automatic and manual watering operations. The timer will continue to track the current time and day of the week.
Once programmed, the ECXTRA memory will be retained for several years with or without power. Only the current time and date information will be lost and will need to be reset if power is disconnected for more than 24 hours.
