The HRC 100 C is capable of running a “Manual Test Cycle” which will run all stations for as little time as 1 minute or as much as 240 minutes. This feature is very useful upon completion of system installation or service.
- Turn the Dial to “Run”.
- Press the Enter/Manual portion of the keypad and then press the “-” key located just above the words “TEST CYCLE” on the front lower right-hand side of the controller.
NOTE: if you do not press the “-” button within 5 seconds of the Enter/Manual button. The manual test start-up process will have to be repeated to activate the function.
- When the function is done correctly the LCD screen will indicate ”MANUAL”, “STATION A” (for all stations), and the default cycle duration of each station (2minutes).
- To increase or decrease test cycle station duration time, use the “+” button or to decrease use the “-” button.
- Upon arrival at desired test cycle time, press “ENTER”.
- To abort the test, press “CLEAR”.
When the test cycle is complete the HRC 100 will automatically return to your pre-set station durations and begin watering upon the next scheduled watering cycle.
Check out the manual watering feature to only run stations with a runtime.
