Rain Bird sprinkler system controller set-up, time, date, programming, and battery back up. - VOTD

In this video I helped a friend with their RainBird E-9 sprinkler system controller. It needed the time and date set along with having a auto sprinkler cycle set.

The E class timer has a super capacitor in the main computer board. In the event of a power outage this super capacitor will keep power on your timer for 24 hours. That is why there is no 9 volt battery backup, the backup is in the computer board.

Oh, thanks for sharing.

New home owner here. Monday is 1, Tuesday is 2, and so on. Correct?

[@RobertDIY]

Doesn't matter, whatever day you want to start with.

[@thomaslawhon7303]

How do you turn on the TEST function? Thanks!

[@RobertDIY]

Sad to say, all I have is what you see in the video.

[@thomaslawhon7303]

@@RobertDIY Thanks Robert! I figured it out. Just push the Enter button when you want to run the TEST function.

set "start time" only one time, then set station run time for each stations 20 minutes. That means it will start once per day then water each stations (up to 6) for 20 minutes each right? ( the start time 1 to 6 doesnt mean different stations/zones, it means different start time right? I used to set 4 start times because I have 4 zones, I thought start time means for each station, wrong?)

[@RobertDIY]

I don't know. Did you watch the entire video?

I programmed a second program "B" and now I can't switch it back to the "A" program. Any ideas?

[@RobertDIY]

Not really.

[@Bigdaddy078]

Are you from Pittsburgh?

[@RobertDIY]

Yep, Braddock.

[@fayecampbell4029]

Was able to program it all, but when I turned it to auto, the ‘b’ cycle came on

[@RobertDIY]

That is probably the worse controller out there. You can have it replaced with a newer easier one.

[@warren3667]

You made mistakes from 5 min 55 seconds then later you corrected it, you should have deleted the incorrect part, why did you upload it too? It's very confusing at first, took me a long time to figure it out.

[@RobertDIY]

would you like a refund?
