Operating Instructions

1. Independent 2-Way Control

The programmer features two independent outlets (Zone A and Zone B), allowing you to manage watering schedules and modes for different areas of your garden separately. This is ideal for watering a lawn and delicate plants with different requirements.

2. Watering Modes

• Volume Mode: Recommended for high-flow systems like lawn sprinklers (optimal precision above 0.75 L/min). This mode allows you to specify the exact volume of water to be dispensed.
• Time Mode: Recommended for low-pressure systems, drip irrigation, or micro-sprinklers. This mode allows you to set the duration of watering.

3. Scheduling and Smart Features

• Custom Watering Plans: Create up to 10 personalized watering schedules for each zone through the app. Set start times, durations, frequencies (daily, specific days), and watering modes (Time or Volume).
• Weather Synchronization & Rain Delay: The app synchronizes with 15-day weather forecasts and can alert you to impending rain. You can manually set a rain delay for up to 30 days to prevent overwatering and conserve water.
• Flow Meter: The integrated flow meter tracks real-time water consumption for each zone, providing data to help you optimize your watering habits.
• Voice Control: The programmer is compatible with Alexa and Google Home, allowing for convenient voice-activated control of your watering schedules.
• Watering History: Review detailed watering logs and water usage graphs for each zone within the app.

Maintenance

• Solar Panel Cleaning: Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris. This ensures optimal sunlight absorption for continuous power.
• Winterization: Although the device is IP65 rated, it is recommended to disconnect the programmer from the faucet and store it indoors in a dry, frost-free location during winter months to prevent damage from freezing temperatures.
• Check for Leaks: Regularly inspect all connections for any signs of leakage. The reinforced brass inlet is designed to be leak-proof, but ensuring tight connections is crucial.

Troubleshooting

• Device not connecting to Wi-Fi:
  - Ensure your Wi-Fi network is 2.4 GHz. The device does not support 5 GHz networks.
  - Check that the device is within range of your Wi-Fi router.
  - Try resetting the device by pressing both buttons for 5 seconds, then re-attempt the pairing process in the app.
• No water flow or low pressure:
  - Ensure the faucet is fully open.
  - Check for any blockages in the hoses or the programmer's inlet filter.
  - If using Volume Mode with low pressure, switch to Time Mode for better performance.
• Leaks at connections:
  - Tighten all connections, including the faucet attachment and hose connections.
  - Ensure rubber washers are correctly seated and not damaged. Use sealing tape if necessary.
• Solar panel not charging:
  - Ensure the solar panel is clean and exposed to direct sunlight for several hours daily.
  - If prolonged cloudy weather occurs, you can temporarily charge the device using the provided USB-C cable.
• App not synchronizing or showing incorrect data:
  - Check your smartphone's internet connection.
  - Ensure the app is updated to the latest version.
  - Restart the app or your smartphone.
