Cycle and Soak

The Cycle and Soak feature allows you to split a station's run
time into more usable, shorter watering durations. This feature
is useful when applying water to slopes and tight soils because it
automatically applies water more slowly, helping to prevent runoff
from occurring. You should enter the Cycle time as a fraction of the
station's watering time, and the Soak time as the minimum number
of minutes required before watering can occur again for the next
Cycle. The total number of cycles is determined by taking the total
programmed station run time and dividing it by the Cycle time.
Accessing the Cycle and Soak Menu:
The Cycle and Soak feature is accessed by placing the dial
in the RUN position, pressing and holding the
conds; while holding the button rotate the dial to the RUN TIME
dial position, then release the button.

NOTE: Before 1 hour, only minutes are displayed
(e.g. 36). At 1 hour or above, the display will change
to include the hour digit (e.g. 1:13 and 4:00).
If a station's Run Time is less than or equal to the
Cycle time, then no Cycle will be applied.
