Chapter 5: Program Entry
OPT INs
OPT INs essentially tells the DXi controller to include a Pump or Master Valve in
irrigation operation.
Run Time Format: Allows the user to switch between entering station run times in
hours:minutes and minutes:seconds. The runtime format is displayed on the run time
screen (see previous page).
Irrigation Program: Yes or No. Defines if the program is a program that runs
irrigation (sprinklers, sprays, rotors, etc.) or a non-irrigation program used to control
non-irrigation items (lighting, fountain, etc.).
Rain Hold events will only suspend operation of irrigation programs and not
non-irrigation programs. Non-irrigation programs will also not be effected
by Flow related alarms such as: Main Line Limit, Unscheduled Flow, Monthly
Water Limit, or station flow alarms.
Omit by Date: Yes or No.
If set to Yes, the specified program will not irrigate on days set under the Omit
by Date/s command, under Setup-->Omit by Date.
If set to No, any and all Omit by Date/s will be ignored.
ET Based Run Times: Yes or No. ET Based run times are Program run times
automatically set based on historical ET data for that date.
Continuous Cycle: Yes or No. Continuous Cycle runs an irrigation program over
and over again during a user-defined Cycle Start and End time. The Cycle Delay is
how long the cycle waits, in minutes, before starting again. It is similar to setting Cycle
and Soak for an individual station, but for an entire program.
If Continuous Cycle is turned on for a program, it is necessary to go back to
the program's Start Times and define the Cycle Start and Cycle
End times .
A twelve hour water window dened during which
Program 1 will run over and over.
