Operating Instructions

Programming Watering Schedules

The RainPoint Home APP allows you to set up to 6 watering schedules per zone. You can choose from three watering modes and five frequencies to meet diverse watering needs:

• Normal Irrigation: Set duration from 1 minute to 12 hours.
• Interval Irrigation: Set duration from 1 second to 60 minutes.
• Cycle & Soak: Set duration from 1 minute to 12 hours.

Watering frequencies include daily, weekly, odd days, even days, or every 2 to 30 days.

Manual Watering

You can initiate manual watering directly from the app or by pressing the button on the timer. This allows for immediate watering without affecting your programmed schedules.

Rain Delay Function

To prevent overwatering during rainy periods, utilize the rain delay feature. You can set a delay of 24, 48, or 72 hours, after which your scheduled watering will automatically resume.

Seasonal Adjustment

The seasonal adjustment feature automatically modifies watering durations based on a percentage you set (10%-200%) for each month. This eliminates the need for frequent manual adjustments as seasons change.
