Understanding Hunter Pro-C Start Times vs. Station Run Times

Common Confusion: Start Times Are for Programs, Not Zones

A Hunter Pro-C user sees only 4 start times when setting "Program Start Times" but 5 zones on "Station Run Times." This is normal: start times trigger the entire program sequence, not individual zones.

How It Works

  • Set each zone's run time (e.g., Zone 1=10 min, Zone 2=10 min, Zone 3=10 min, Zone 4=10 min, Zone 5=10 min, Zone 6=0).
  • Set Start Time 1 = 7:00 AM. At 7:00 AM, the controller runs Zone 1 for 10 min, then Zone 2 for 10 min, etc., sequentially.
  • Set Start Time 2 = 2:00 PM for a second full cycle. It runs the same sequence again.

Odd/Even Day Restrictions

To water every 4th day (e.g., 2nd, 6th, 10th), set the controller to Interval Watering: Every 4 Days. Adjust the "Today" setting at the start of each month to align with the desired dates (since months have 30/31 days).
