Q:
|
Is it practical to install a spray and rotor on the same zone?
|
|
A:
|
No, rotors and sprays have different precipitation rates. If a spray head were on a rotor zone, the area near the spray head would be very wet. Similarly, if a rotor were on a spray zone, the area around the rotor would be very dry.

Q:
|
What happens to my controller when the power goes off?
|
|
A:
|
The battery will hold the program. If power goes off while sprinkling, sprinkling will stop during power outage. When power returns, you will continue sprinkling. Any sprinkling time during power failure is lost for that cycle only.
