The Pump Circuit Control feature enables the pump or master
valve to be automatically turned On or Off in conjunction with the
Well Recovery Delay feature. The pump/master valve circuit is
energized at the beginning of the watering operation and remains
on for the duration of the cycle. In some systems, the pump is not
pressure limited and will continue to operate during a delay in the
watering cycle, causing a pump “Dead Head” or over-pressure
condition. Similar to all other Special Functions, this feature is
Program-specific; applying only to the selected Program.
