This unit is terrific for the price. It is simple to use for simple watering schemes. All this unit asks of you is having basic intelligence, the ability to read the simple manual, and a basic sense of logic. For the general unit you just enter the current time once. Then, for each zone, you enter the time it is supposed to start the water flow and for how long. Also, for each zone, you also enter the interval you want that water to flow: every 1 through 12 hours OR every 1-7 days. Done. You can't program one zone to something like this: "In Zone 1, water daily at 5 am for 10 minutes AND again at 11am for 7 minutes but the 11am one only every other day". You could, by building a Frankenstein I suppose, by combining the 2 outlets back into one hose with Zone 1 being "daily at 5 am for 10 minutes" and Zone 2 programming being "11am for 7 minutes every other day". Like I said, basic logic. But, if you need such a set up, then chances are you are growing something not meant to be in your climate in the first place...
I totally forgot that you can manually turn on with Long press the okay button then choose the zone and again the okay for ten minutes of watering,, thank you for thecompliment FISH
Hi , I want run the irrigation multiple times but not don’t want to use how often . Basically one at 8 Am and the another run ar 11 am as it is very hot in summer . Does this timer allow to do that I don’t want to sent how often to 12 hrs to run late in the evening
What if you only want to use 1 zone and not second one on a timer.i want to attach a hose on one side that i can use as needed.and one side is on timer.
i can't understand how the ingeneers could think about to have a start time but not having a stop time. I explain. i need a kind of thing like this for my high tunnel to programme misting. I want an interval of 15 minute for a 1 minute misting. but do not want misting a night. With all those programmers it is not possible. The start time is just interesting if the delay is set to 24h. I have just reveived mine i will have to send it back. Thank you for your video ;-)

thank you awesome info. you can always place zone 1 and Zone 2 hoses separately or join at the output to do what you mentioned ,
Really great informative post…. Thanks
thank you
Great explanation video! Thank you so much for being thorough!

You can just attached the hose and use the Manual function to turn on the water for the hose side
does it come adapter to directly connect 1/4" drip tubing to the timer?
just the product
@@fishycomics Thanks
I just did a review today and this one came with hose adapters two so my apologies if I said what I mentioned before,
@@fishycomics Thanks again, appreciate the info.
Can you run to hoses at 1 time?

think you need a different timer t do that.
@@fishycomics i have ordered the one with the BT and phone app and there is a spray programme.
@@LavieduMiel excellent. maybe the co. has one not sure.
is this reliable ? any leaks developed over time?
taken me some tine to get accustomed to it, and used it all last season, enjoyed it, held strong,
So 7 days, is that every 7 days or is that 7 days a week?
I use this each day. I apologise if I incorrectly said things I'll look into mine in day light
Every 7 days I think.
