Was becoming confused regarding zones. Only 4, but then we have individual stations could be several more.. you kept saying “zones” but it should be called stations. Is that correct?
Appreciate your efforts, but you need to keep it short and simple, too much details and unnecessarily talking is dragging the video and making it boring. I have fast forward 10 times to come to the point. And please fix your device properly on the wall that's another annoying thing while you are actually recording this to benefit other people and you can't even remember the date and time.
The key here is that the zones can’t run at the same time. They run one after another even on the same start time. This was very helpful because nowhere in the manual does it explain this and I couldn’t figure out why my 2nd zone wasn’t turning on. It just has to wait for the first zone to finish watering. Thank you!
Just learned this myself. What a crappy instruction manual. Also can’t pop off the piece for the battery backup, and the knob doesn’t always update the display.
do you not have the problem of the dripline constantly bursting at the barb fittings? Every time I replace a stretch of line, the dripline breaks at the couplings within two weeks.
1 of 2 things it may be. Most common, if it is "breaking", then it is probably a critter chewing through the fitting to get to the water. 2nd issue may be there is no pressure regulator on the zone. This would not cause the fitting to break, but rather to pop out repeatedly. These zones need to be set to 40PSI to prevent disconnecting.
@@thriveos The fitting isn't breaking, nor is it popping out. I have 40 PSI regulators on all my zones. What's happening is that the tubing is cracking just a tiny bit at some of the fittings, much like you'd expect it to do after drying out for years in the sun, except this is after two weeks of use. 🤷♂
Great video i had been dealing with my system for awhile. it keep turning on all 4 zones on repeatedly and now i see why. i had set 4 different start times 30 mins apart from each other , thank you for this informative video
Ours runs the 4 zones that we have programmed, and then it starts over again. I don’t understand. Program B and C say 0 for time. It doesn’t make any sense.
Thanks. Video helped me start. But, i am still a bit lost. Let me explain. I have 4 zones. All set and running as i want but i want zone one to run twice a day. The other 3 zones just once a day every second day. How do i set this up. Its out of my brains league. I mean how does the following sentence make sense... I have a 6 zone programer, each zone can start 4 up to four times a day and i have three programmes per @#😮😅&"** . Please help. 😂😂😂
Hi I turned off my hunter x core unit last year winter tim,but when I turned it on summer time it lost preprogrammed days so I followed your helpful video to run Tuesday and Saturday which it does do,but the front yard 3 zones come on all other days of the week when I've set them off.I've tried the reset button on side of unit and held down program button and right side arrow but now front and rear zones are coming on everyday can you please help me thank you in advance.
Go to "water days" and check programs B and C. There is a high chance you have days set for the other programs. Watch the video again to see how to check different programs.
@@thriveos omg! You were correct it had B & C with run minutes so I turned B & C off and now have just A running the 6 stations on set minutes watering days set for Tuesday & Saturday.I will check tomorrow Friday hopefully shouldn't come on and should come on Saturday.The previous home owners must of had it set A,B,C its been doing my head in lol thank you so much, much appreciated from Perth Australia 🇦🇺 🙌👍🙂
Also I have a wireless rain sensor so I'm guessing if the sprinklers come on while it's raining they would automatically turn off would I be correct? Oh! And the hunter x core unit looks hard wired as its not plugged into power socket.Just wondering that battery in the Hunter unit 2032 battery I think is that to run rain sensor or the hunter unit? Unit is running fine but I'll probably replace that battery not sure how old it is and I guess will have to reset unit again thank you again in advance
Thank you so much bro ! So what if I want to set my zone 1 ( front grass) to 10 minutes at 4:00am and 30 minutes around 7:30pm in the same day ? Can I do that ??
Wow he is the best I got it … I was confusing and got the hard time to adjustment but now I’m going to do it …. Love it thank you for Amazing video ❤❤❤
