Can I specify 3 unique start times per day (say 6 a.m., 10 am, noon)? Or if I choose 6 am, does it come on at 6 am, 2 pm and 10 pm (3 equally spaced)?

You should be able to program three seperate times. If you choose 6am it will only come on at 6 am.

Sir, you can set it for whatever particular time you want. So you specify when it comes on and when it goes off. Robert

I have only had the need to water twice a day. I have 6 claber timers. I have them all set to water at specific times which don't over lap for consistent water pressure. They have worked perfectly on all my garden areas as well as lawn watering. They work fine even in the Texas heat.

Yes, you can specify 3 start times of your choosing. After I got over the hurdle of programming this timer, I've grown to really like the timer. This timer supports 2 zones, so you can have 3 start times for zone A and 3 different start times for zone B. Of the total of 6 start and end times, you can program them in any way, as long as the 2 zones are not on at the same time and that the times for each zone are ordered from earliest to latest start times.

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.

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

This device has 9 setpoints for on/off times, but it will not automatically vary the time. You may want to get 2 or 3 for different rooms, all set for different times. I love mine, you dont have to hard wire it, very easy to program, dependable, and well worth the price. Highly recommend it.

Yes you can set all 4 before starting them. Then start them 1 at a time. You can't start all of them at once.

There are 21 date/time combinations that can be set. These can be set a time or times every day or a time or times for a specific day. You can set it for multiple on/off cycles in a single day 7 days a week.

It lets you program 8 events per day, all based on time of day. We program 4 daily sets of turn on, turn off, a total of 8 events. You could set one "turn on time" for around sunrise and one "turn off time" for around sunset.

No - you can only set two time periods - you can do 50 seconds on / 10 seconds rest (repeat as many times as you wish) OR 30 seconds on / 10 seconds rest (repeat as wanted) OR 50 seconds on and 30 seconds rest but not all three time periods.

You can choose the length of time and the instruction book is helpful. I set mine to run 7 minutes once a day starting at 1 pm.

Yes, it can be programed to come on at sunset and off two hours later. You have full control of when it comes on and when it goes off. You can set up to seven different programs.

Oh yes - definitely !! You choose the date and the specific time. In fact, you can even program it to turn on (and off) for up to eight different times during various days (and times) of the week.

No, it goes on by how often: every 1, 2, 3 etc. hours and how long: 3 min., 5 min. etc. Hope this helps.

Yes it does. I don't think you can pick a specific amount of time but there are varying timers to choose from.

Although I've never set more than one cycle per day, I believe if you select 2 cycles for the same area, the 2nd will be 12 hours following the first. If you set the first cycle for 6:00 a.m., the 2nd would be 6:00 p.m. I think if you select 3 cycles, the interval is 4 hours.

The timer can be set for 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24, weekly so it should fit your requirement. To be sure, download the user manual from the manufacturer to confirm. Takes a complete cycle to activate, thus mine is set for daily and will only run the first time the next day. However, there is a manual override that can be set outside of the automated, so it works well. Had bought an older model that failed and Melnor replaced it with an advanced model and I bought two more because it worked so well. Great product and manufacturer from my perspective.
