Had old Melnor timers that can be set to odd/even days as required by our community. Are these able to be set for odd/even watering?

The model I have can be set to water every day, every other day, every third day, etc. However, since the date is not programmed into the timer, it won't know if the day is odd or even. You could set it to every other day, but you would need to adjust it at the end of a 31 day month to keep it odd or even.

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.

You have three avalible programs, plus a one time "run now". Each program can run any or all of your zones, up to five times each day for any or all seven days a week. You can set it to run even days or odd days, you can set it to run every day up to every 30 days, for each program. I hope this answers your question. I have been using this for about three months. The directions say you can access your irrigation caddy through the web, they give you the directions, you have to open a port to do it, that is beyond my ability. I just my desk top computer the set it up.

I responded earlier..but, while I have had previous success with this Timer (purchased at Home Depot who no longer carries them) and highly recommended them in my reply, I recently bought 8 from Amazon. I installed 6 with totally confidence.However, after thinking about it, I checked and found two not working!!! No wonder I was concerned when my veggie garden looked so poorly. Anyway, on one of the timers it was obvious that there was water inside the mechanism. When I went to replace it, there were some "lines" in he program area, but it was impossible to program. Should I sent them back?

This system can be programmed to water any zone up to 4 times/day (or be turned off) independently of the other zones. You can only set the initial zone start time, the following times are done by the system's internal software. If you want to water specifically @ 6AM and 6PM (your example of AM/PM watering), for example - nope this unit won't do that. You can only set the initial start time not any of the following starts.

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.

The only timer that really worked was an old Melnor and I still have two in operation after about 5 years. In fact, one is so old the face sticker has worn off so I can't reprogram it. It is the old 3015 round Aqua Timer. They don't make them any more and it's really a shame. I wish something could be done. I've tried everything else and nothing does it for any reasonable amount of time.

yes it does. You can also set specific days of the week if don't want it to run all 7 days. I use them for 120/12 volt outdoor lights. They are programmable with at least 5 specific combinations. Push the "days: button and the combos available will change with each entry.

I have 3 and 2 outlet timers, not a single outlet but I presume the programming is almost identical so the answer would be , no. It can certainly water for the duration of one minute but I think 6 hrly intervals is the shortest. Not sure what you intend watering but can only suggest you water at a very low flow rate to be equivalent to the amount of water you expected to use under your scenario. This may not be suitable but the simplicity and ease of use of these timers means intricate watering patterns cannot be addressed.

Small arrow on inside dial...set the time of day here.....push out the little pins for the time you want the lights to come on.....if you want the lights to come on at 9pm until 11 pm push all the pins between 9p and 11p out....nice timer I used for landscape lights and two fountains works like a charm and they are all outside so its water proof also...nice timer any other questions?

No actual time setting only amount of time to water on every day, every other day and every third day. Suggest turning the unit on at the time you want to water and it should repeat on following days.

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.

NO you can NOT set this to water on select days of the week like the Orbit Model 56544. Watering every 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. day, is not the same as watering every Monday and Wednesday. This device can water every second day which will mean it will water every other day regardless of the day of the week. Which also means that the watering day will eventually become a guess. REASON: The clock model in this device is not a clock/calendar. Hope that helps.

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.

No but you can program it to water every 3rd week, 6am and 8pm. With the odd and even weeks it's a bit more complicated. You must install a jumper wire on pin 3 of the timer chip and connect it to pin 7 of the IC in position J2. After that restart the unit and program the times you want to water.

It is actually very easy to set. The left connector is labeled A and the right one B. Put in the battery and set the hour. A number will appear on the screen. That number corresponds to the day on which you set the timer up. In other words, if you set it up on a Wednesday, the number one that appears on the screen corresponds to Wednesday. Or you can set it up on Monday and the number will correspond to Monday. You set the open and close times, pick the days to water, etc... Our entire property is watered using these timers. We have been using them for over a year without any problems. I hope this helps. It is actually very easy to set. The left connector is labeled A and the right one B.
