How does the timer work? Can I set it to water the lawn several times a day with each watering lasting about 10 minutes or so?

you turn the dial to the amount of time you want it to stay on for that period. You cannot program for multiple periods.

It cannot do what you are asking. You can set it to water for up to 45-55 mins then it stops the water. It cannot be set to start again. Hope this helps!

A and B are programs, not stations. One cannot set different watering schedules for different stations. This may be the only drawback of the Timer.

You manually set this timer each time you use it. I have this connected to the fill line for my pool. This lets me run the water for a specific amount of time without worrying about forgetting to shut it off.

According to the instructions, the limit per watering session is 240 minutes. You could water for 150 minutes, four times per day, for a total of ten hours, but I expect that is not what you had in mind.

You can not set the time for the second time for a single zone to water, HOWEVER you CAN set the interval at which the second time it waters. For example, lets say you set zone 1 to water at 7am. Set the dial to zone 1. On the blue column of the unit are the "Watering Times Per Day" buttons. If you wanted to water it 2 times per day, press the Two Times button. When you press the button each time thereafter, it cycles the interval at which the second watering starts. The intervals are +1, +2, +3, +4, +8, +9, +12 hours. You can see the intervals change above the watering time you had set on the LCD screen. If you have set the interval to +4 Hours, then the second water time for zone 1 would be 11am. The start time is set to 7am, then you add 4 hours, therefore the second watering time starts at 11am. For zone 1, you have watering times at 7am and 11am if you have this setting set. Hope this helps.

This is not what you need. This timer lets you manually set a duration to water.

No it is not a water timer. It is a waterproof water meter and it only measures in liters used. it is helpful when hand watering so that you can keep acurate track of how much water you use.

Yes you can set for a week or more. Just program it for a particular time and if you need to water at another time use the manual override, it will not change the program you have preset.

You can run individual zones on the timer up to 4 times a day. It also allows you to manually water any zone now by setting the zone you want, and pushing the "water zone now" button.

ues you can program for twice day, i set my timer to come on at 4am, on my watering days, and 7.30 pm on my watering days,then use the slides to say how long do you want each station to run,if you are on a well with less volume of water, you can stagger the times . the instructions that come with the timer are very well explained.

No but you can program it to water every 3rd week, 6am and 8pm. With the odd and even weeks it's a bit more complicated. You must install a jumper wire on pin 3 of the timer chip and connect it to pin 7 of the IC in position J2. After that restart the unit and program the times you want to water.

The shortest watering time is one minute. But if you adjust the budget selector down to ten percent it will only be on for ten percent of that minute. Pretty short. It also has 3 programs. They each can have 4 start times. You can run all 3 of the programs stacked and get 4 start times per program. You should be able to flood what ever you want when you do that.

It is a very simple mechanical timer. It will stop the flow of water when the timer runs down. I don't see why it wouldn't work...

Yes, the watering schedule can be set up for individual days of the week. It takes some effort, though, as the schedule programming is not very user friendly.

I have 3 and 2 outlet timers, not a single outlet but I presume the programming is almost identical so the answer would be , no. It can certainly water for the duration of one minute but I think 6 hrly intervals is the shortest. Not sure what you intend watering but can only suggest you water at a very low flow rate to be equivalent to the amount of water you expected to use under your scenario. This may not be suitable but the simplicity and ease of use of these timers means intricate watering patterns cannot be addressed.

There is no "daily function" ... this is a mechanical device that works like an old-fashion kitchen timer or mechanical alarm clock ... there are no batteries, no digital display, no date or clock function .. you must turn a knob to set the mechanical spring that sets the watering time. There is no "set it and forget function. You must actively set the timer every time you wish to use it. BTW, here in Texas, the State Legislature passed a bill requiring HOAs to allow xeriscaping ... many HOAs still require applications for "landscape modifications" but those applications cannot be reasonably denied.

Probably not. This Timer has six ON/OFF settings per day and some other DAY/WEEK stuff. One Minute ON/OFF (six times) a day is about as close as you get. Your need sounds like a Hydroponic Fluid Pump or something. Get a Timer Circuit (with Output Relay) from an Electronics Supply house.
