8 – Manual Operations

The BaseStation 3200 has several options that enable you to manually control your irrigation

system. You can force a program to start, stop a program that is actively watering or set the next

start date for a program.

You can also manually water a single zone, all zones, or the zones of a program. The Manual

options are useful for doing a walk-about test of multiple valves, or for applying additional water

for a short period of time to a specific zone.

Forcing a Program to Start

When you use this option to start a program, the zones water according to the program including

water times, soak times, and sensor conditions.

If you want to manually run the zones in a program for a specified amount of time, refer to

Manually Running Programs for a Fixed Time on page 78.
