To clear a previous zone number assignment
You can reassign your biCoders to different zone numbers in order to accurately represent your
irrigation system and the primary zones and scheduling groups that you want to use.
1. If you have not searched for the biCoders, do that first. Refer to Searching For biCoders
(including Powered biCoders) on page 29.
2. With the dial in the Assign position and the
biCoder List displayed, press the + or – button
until Unassign is highlighted in the Decoders
list.
3. Press the Next button to move to the Zone
Assignments column.
4. Press the Next or Previous button to select
the zone that you want to clear.
5. Press the Enter button.
Note: If you cleared a zone number assignment so you can reassign certain zones in order to
properly combine primary and linked zones in a scheduling group, return to the topic on
assigning biCoders to zones (on page 30) to complete the assignments.
6. When you have finished making changes, turn the dial to the RUN position.
Configuring Zone Settings
After you have searched for your biCoders and assigned them to zones, you can configure the
various settings for each zone. The controller supports 200 standard zones.
1. Turn the dial to the Zones position. The Zones
screen displays for the first zone.
2. In the Zone field press the + or – button to
change the number to the zone that you want
to modify.
3. Press the Next button to move to the Zone
Mode field. Press the + or – button to change
the value in the field to one of the following
settings:
Note: If you change the mode of a zone to
Primary or from Primary to another mode,
you will potentially affect the programming of other zones. For example, a primary zone has
20 linked zones. If you change the mode of the primary zone to linked or timed, the links to
the 20 zones will be broken.
 Primary – The zone within a scheduling group that all other zones are linked to.
Changing the programming on this zone will adjust the programming on all linked zones,
resulting in saved time and consistency. If you are using a biSensor, the primary zone is
the zone where the sensor is located.
