Which is it... second water time for zone is predetermined (unchangeable), or you press "watering times per day" repeatedly to change time interval?

This timer is not designed for continuous running like most timers. Set a start time and run min.,for 1st zone then you must set a separate start time for zone #2, 3,4 etc. in increments of 15 mins. each. You can't overlap. If #1 starts at 3am, run 45 min, then zone #2 must start at 4 am and yes this means a 15 min. pause before #2 runs. Each zone also needs the day of the week you want it to run i.e. Wednesday and Saturday or whatever your local codes dictates. Same with 2,3,4. If you want only one watering time per day, that's the button you push. Hope this helps. Very simple and inexpensive unit if you want an "indoor" with plug-gable transformer. No cover so you need it indoors or out of direct contacts with the elements.

That's the biggest problem with this item. You have to be at the time you want and you set the hours you want till the next feeding & turn on. I have 2 units, one set for 1:30 am & pm and the other at 7:30 am & pm. They each lose 1-2 minutes every day & need to be reset at 1:30 & 7.30. Using 2 units at 12 hrs means I only have to fill them every other day. I hope this helps and is not too confusing.

Hi Dianna, I'm happy to tell you that once you set up the clock, you can program up to 16 different watering schedules on this timer.

I am able to program each zone independently. i have some zones running three days a week and others on 2 days a week. albeit, only one zone can be watered at a time, so stagger your time allotments accordingly.

Seth ,I have had this a number of years now.. I recall that you can program a couple seperate on off times but you can't zone those times . I believe you will need two seperate units or a second timer of some sort that would switch the zones . You will have to research that concept.

I think what you are asking is: can you have a pause between stations? Each station (there were 12 on my model) is programed independently of each other. For example, you set the time for station 1 to start watering at 5 AM for 15 minutes on odd number days. Then you can program station 2 to water at 6 AM for 30 minutes on odd days. and so forth, you set the time each station should start to water. In other words, by controlling the start to water time, you can design a pause between waterings to let the well re-charge. You could also have some stations water on odd days and other stations water on even days.

There are a total of 4 watering cycles. You can run up to 4 times a zone within one day and for each watering cycle you can set up to 4 diff start time. The duration can be set differently on each watering cycle.

You can run individual zones on the timer up to 4 times a day. It also allows you to manually water any zone now by setting the zone you want, and pushing the "water zone now" button.

I am sure the timer allows you to manually override the timed settings. (Most timers do allow this.) The On/Off buttons provide this capability.

Device timer have 2 sets one is frequency, second one is watering time. Frequency of watering you can install from 2.4 hours ( set day to 0.1) thru 720 hours (set day to 30) Watering time may be set from 1 second to 99 seconds I'm watering weekly for 90 second 3 big plants and 2 small Timer set: day =7 , sec =90 Correspondingly timer will powering pump every 168 hours for 1 min 30 sec But you need different volume of water to different plant. You can resolve it by different way: - use 2 nozzles for every big plant and 1 nozzle for medium - split one pipe(nozzle) to two plant (you need create splitter for this) - make long pipe for small plants (read table in instruction) - or/and put them more higher then big one. In any case measure volume of water delivered by every pipe into jar by pushing test button and adjust to desired using methods above In my case used 1 nozzle for every big plant and one splitted nozzle for small plants that also stay one foot higher and have longer pipe

Its a strictly set and water each time, is not programmable. The clock is strictly a timer and you must reset (rewind) it each time you sprinkle.

The number of desired day intervals are set in the timer, i.e. every 2nd day, 3rd day, etc. It will water on those intervals until you turn it off.

A and B are programs, not stations. One cannot set different watering schedules for different stations. This may be the only drawback of the Timer.

This is not what you need. This timer lets you manually set a duration to water.

Make certain all your settings are correct. Each zone must be completely set. I set one side for 1 a day. The other I leave off so I can use it when needed for hand watering. I can go away for a week or two and it waters my hanging baskets everyday. I love it. It does take a little getting used to.

Absolutely, just select the desired zone and press "water now", or I believe there is a way to water all - just not looking at it right now.
