Multiple Start Times
Did our calculator suggest multiple start times? We often suggest multiple start times
to allow the water to soak into the soil to alleviate puddling and/or prevent runoff.
Enter the suggested Station Run Time from the calculator, and program the
suggested number of Start Times. There is no need to divide up the Run Time. This is
a suggestion and is not necessary if you find that your soil doesn't get saturated
easily.

Please keep in mind that these run times are based on your area's hottest month. You will need
to adjust water usage as temperatures cool and heat up. You can either do this manually,

For instance, during hotter times of the year, the landscape may require a bit more water.
Seasonal Adjust can be increased so the stations run longer than the programmed time.
Conversely, as fall approaches the Seasonal Adjust can be reduced to allow for short watering
durations. This overall percentage based change applies globally to all Run Times on the
controller. For example: If your Run Times in the summer are set for 1 hour and you adjust the
Seasonal Adjust to 50%, your Run Times will now change to 30 minutes.
