The display shows dashes when the dial
is in the Solar Sync Settings position
• The Solar Sync sensor is not
connected to the controller
• The Solar Sync sensor wires may have
a break in them or a bad connection
Connect the Solar Sync to the “SEN” positions on the
wiring terminal. The display will then show the Region
and Water Adjustment setting.
Run times for a particular station are
too short/too long when using a Solar
Sync sensor
Program Run Time too long/short Solar Sync provides a global seasonal adjustment to the
controller. If a particular station has run times too long
or too short, make the appropriate adjustment to the
program in the controller. Make sure to change seasonal
adjust back to 100% before making changes to program
run times. Do this by turning the dial to the Seasonal
Adjust position and increasing/decreasing the value
to 100%.
Seasonal Adjust seems low • Region too high
• Water Adjustment too low
• Location of Sensor does not allow for
full sun
Increase the value on the Water Adjustment scale
(the default setting is 5). If you max out on the Water
Adjustment scale at 10 and still require more seasonal
adjustment, move down one Region (from 4 to 3, for
example) and start at Water Adjustment setting 5. Solar
Sync will immediately update the Seasonal Adjust on the
controller. If it is still too high, repeat the adjustment until
the desired seasonal adjust is showing on the controller.
