X-Core - Setting Date and Time

The X-Core display shows the time and day when the controller is idle. The display changes when the dial is rotated to indicate the specific programming information to enter. When programming, the flashing portion of the display can be changed by pressing the plus (+) or minus (-) buttons. To change something that is not flashing, press the left arrow (<) or right arrow (>) buttons until the desired field is flashing.

Three programs (A, B, and C), each with the ability to have four daily start times, permit plants with different watering requirements to be separated on different day schedules.

NOTE: A basic programming rule is that whatever symbol or character is flashing will be the item programmed. For instance, if the hour is flashing when setting the time, the hour can be changed or programmed. For illustration purposes in these instructions, flashing characters are in BLACK type.
