Can this unit be set for once every 18 hours, or once every 36 hours? (In other words, unusual intervals, not just at 10:00 a.m. each Monday, etc.)

The unit could be set to run as you describe. It has the capability of running 3 times daily on each outlet. Also, you can set for every other day operation as you describe say 36 hours. Downside is that if you set for every other day operation, that controls both outlets. Hope this helps.

The clock is a 24-hour clock. The open and close time for the valves can only be 24 hours apart. By setting the clock creatively, you could (in principle) open the valve at 11:45 PM and then close the valve at 1 AM.

You can't specify 8 hrs etc, but you can set it to do intervals by using schedule. For instance I water every other day at 6AM. By using the schedule you can program it to wTer every day at say ten and six, or monday thursday at ten and tuesday froday at six (36 in between). You can schedule more than obe time on one line, you just have to follow the rules spelled out in book that comes with

You can set multiple on/off events. If you program it for your time zone it should automatically adjust I believe. I did not choose this feature when programming mine. Also go to Utube for how to videos as the directions can be a bit difficult at first. The unit is not for outside use and does not sense the ambient light in the area.

yes . I have mine set to come on twice a day . Once in the mornings for two hours and back off afterwards and then in the evenings for seven more hours and back off until the cycle starts over again the next morning . I suppose you could set them to come on for up to twenty three and a half hours a day if you wanted . I thank they have a minimum setting of thirty minutes on or off time . I hope this helps .

Yes you can. When programming, you can set each day to run a specific amount of time or completely off.

Yes, you can. Set the timer to the current time of the day. Set the star time and how long. How often- every 6 or 12 hrs, every 1day, every 2 days, etc. The timer operate at the time you designate and every day, depends on what you set in its program.

Yes, you can set your own intervals. it is easy to set and change when you want. you are not rstricted to just a few options.

I don't have mine set to Automatic clock time. I set the time zone and then I set the time. I automatically adjust with the time changes so I don't have to set that again. I've never had luck with the automatic clock time on any unit I've ever used. It always seems to not take time zones into consideration.

Mine set itself when I first plugged it in. It does come with instructions to change the time settings. They are somewhat complicated because you have to set 8 different settings. I had to go through that to change from Daylight savings to Standard time. If you don't have the manual try to get it from the company website. It is too hard to figure out without the manual.

It has two alarms settings, so you could use one for week days and one or weekends but you still have to manually set them. If there's another way it wasn't apparent.

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.

I do not know for sure, but believe it can not. I found it easy to program to come on once a day for 30 minutes. I will need to up that to twice a day in the future. From what I remember in reading other posts, its is programmable for 6 hour intervals only. Possibly you can find a contact number for the manufacturer/distributor and ask them the specifics that you desire.

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.

Yes you can set it the normal timing with the am and pm displayed, just check the manual its very easy. :)

Yes, you have to set it each night for the next morning. You don't have to go through changing the time, it will automatically come up but you have to hit the button a few times to set it.

Yes, I set it every evening for 5:00 a.m. the next morning for my husband and he has coffee waiting for him when he gets up at 5:15! A blue dot lights up on the panel so you know the auto is set, and you can check the set time with a push of a button! Works perfectly every time!

Currently, I have it on 1 hour before sunrise, then off at sunrise. For night operation it is on at sunset off at 10. I believe it can be set like you want also.

Not sure I understand your question but you can set it to run for a one time 2 hour period or program for multiple times during a week.
