I need a timer that will energize ONE zone (valve) for a set period each day. Then another zone the next day. For 6 zones. Will this one do that?

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.

There are 4 zones that you set which are morning, afternoon, evening and night. The system can be overrode at any time however when the next zone hits it will automatically adjust to that temp that is programmed.

Yes, you could set these different time with the same or different rest periods and then run them as a sequence. The timer is quite flexible.

I just went and adjusted the setting to see... The time on a zone went up to 240 minutes duration. It can only run one zone at a time. You can set a zone to water up to 4 times per day.

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.

Wow this is quite an ancient post. So far I've looked over the large sheet of directions and set up a few programmable times. Unfortunately nothing has indicated to me that each of the outlets can be timed individually. As far as custom times, you can set 1 turn on time and 1 turn off time on four different programmable settings. For example, program 1 could be set to turn on at 6 AM and to off at 7 PM while program 2 (if selected) could be set to turn on at 6 AM and turn off at 5 PM.

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.

This timer will not do it . Check with the electrical department at home depot or menards. They have a timer that can do what you want.

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.

This timer is designed to work by time of day, not by a specified amount of time. You would always have to set it to go off at a certain time of day base on the current time when you started using it. It would work, but I don't think this I what you want.

Yes, you can program it for different times for each day if you wish. You can even set it to turn on and off several times a day if you want. The unit is easy to set. Much easier than other timers I have ever purchased.

Yes. You can set it for one day, Just week days, just weekends, 7 days a week etc. There are lots of options. You can download the instructions from our website: https://hydro-gardens.com/product/programmable-digital-timer-6w190/. G Morton

Hi Bo, I have used one of these WH21 for the last 25 years. This version of timer is only for controlling on and off in a 24 hour period. It will not help you with the issue that you described. Thanks,Ed

This 'kit' comes with a programmer that can control 4- separate zones and a 4- outlet manifold BUT only 2- zone valves. To control all 4- zones you will need to purchase 2- additional zone valves. Further, the manifold has a manual shut-off at each end, controlling the end outlets (the black knobby-thingys at the ends of the manifold). I have 4- zone valves with a 'Y' splitter on one end running to my garden hose (essentially 5- zones). It has worked well with the new controller all summer.

I'm not sure, as we do not use ours on a timer. Sorry if this isn't helpful.

Yes. Each of the triggers represents a 15 minute duration. I used mine to power a water pump inside a plant cloning unit. You could definitely set an on 15, off 15, on 15 etc., cycle for a two-hour period, and have the remaining triggers in the 24-hour cycle set to off.Works like a charm.

Thanks to your question, I just discovered that it could. Set it at zero & push start/stop. It's a good timer. Hope this helps. - Guy
