5.7 Downtime
This makes it possible to temporarily cancel the control of the controller on
the valves, for example when it rains. The irrigation schedule is maintained,
but irrigation is not carried out.
The shutdown operation prevents irrigation in all valves.
1. Press Enter
until the clock icon
appears.
2. Press and hold (more than 5 seconds.)
The icon (no irrigation) will be
displayed flashing in front of the caption
“Downtime.” The controller is disabled now.
3. To return control to the controller, press
Enter
until the clock icon appears,
and then press continuously until the icon disappears.
4. Downtime may be carried out while the valve is turned on.
5. In downtime mode, if you accidentally try to turn on a valve manually or
if it reached its time to open, the word ‘rain’ will appear and the valve will
not open.
It is possible to add or reduce the duration of irrigation in all taps
simultaneously in the form of percentages.
Example: If the irrigation duration is one hour and we add 10%, the new
irrigation duration will be one hour and 6 minutes (66 minutes).
