Q:Who has used this item for more than one season? I have had consistent problems with my Melnor's ball valves sticking on the second year's use (yes, I brought it in for the winter), so I'm hoping to find a more long-term reliable device.

    Q:Four outlet hose end timer. Where’re can I read programming information; specifically to enter “How often” information?
    by|May 1, 2024
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  The "How Often" section is programmed by intervals instead of by selecting specific watering days. 1 day would be daily, 2 days would be every other day, etc. There is also a programming manual on this page under Product Details and Additional Resources called "Installation Guide" or our Orbit support team would be happy to provide you with a manual and walk you through programming your timer.

            Q:Can you set 1 zone to manual so I can hook up a hose and start/stop it from the unit itself to wash a car for example?
            by|Mar 8, 2024
            1 Answer
            Answer This Question

            A:  This is possible by simply not programming one outlet and using it only manually. However, manual watering still requires a length of time to run. You are able to cancel manual watering if you finish early, but may need to continue running it manually if your watering needs exceed the maximum run time.

                Q:Can each zone run every other hour for overseeding
                by|Oct 15, 2023
                1 Answer
                Answer This Question

                A:  This is possible, but would require using all four start times for three different programs to space them out as the shortest watering frequency under the "How Long" section is once daily. Our Orbit support team is happy to help get your programming set up to water the way you want. We can be reached by phone at (800) 488-6156 or online at support.orbitonline.com.
