This section covers in detail each of the three parts of a
watering program – watering days, program start times
and station run times.
Selecting Watering Days
The GreenKeeper 212 provides four options for schedul-
ing watering days: Calendar, Interval, Odd or Even and
Off.
Calendar Schedule
A Calendar schedule enables you to select specific days
of the week to water, for example, Monday, Wednesday
and Friday. This is a seven-day schedule which starts on
Sunday and ends on Saturday.
This illustration shows how a Calendar schedule would
be displayed when the control dial is in the
WATERING DAYS position.
In this example, program
A
has watering days set for MO
(Monday), WE (Wednesday)
and
FR (Friday).
Interval Schedule
An Interval schedule enables you to set watering days
without regard to the actual days of the week. For exam-
ple, if you want to water every third day, you would
select a 3-day Interval. Interval schedules range from
1-day (watering every day) to 7-day (watering every sev-
enth day). Once you have selected an Interval schedule,
you can choose which day of the week will be the first day
of the Interval. The number of days in the Interval deter-
mines the available start days. For example, if you have
selected a 3-day Interval and today is Sunday, you may
choose to start the Interval today, Monday or Tuesday.
This illustration shows how
an Interval schedule would
be displayed. In this exam-
ple, program
B has a 3-day
Interval schedule which will
start on Monday.
Odd/Even Schedule
The Odd/Even schedule enables you to select odd even
numbered days of the month as watering days.
This illustration shows how
an Odd day schedule
would be displayed.
Program Off
Selecting OFF suspends the operation of the program
when it is not needed. Turning the program off does not
alter or erase the watering day schedule of the program,
it simply places the program on hold until it is needed.
This illustration shows how a
program would be displayed
if its watering day schedule
is turned off. In this exam-
ple, program
C is off.
