How To Program A Galcon Irrigation Timer For Mist Propagation Systems

[@RafaelJimenez-hz9gu]

Hello my my question is can I have this turn on at 9:00 in the morning spray for 5 minutes every hour until 5:00 p.m. everyday Thank you

I have my controller set for 2 zones both to run for 4 seconds, every 12 minutes zone 1 at 8:00 am and zone 2 at 8:02am. I have a open time for 8am and close time for 3am. For what ever reason my start times are changing to where eventually zone 1 and 2 will run at the same time.can you tell me why this is happening?

Hi, my AC 6 doesn't have the seconds option under the duration setting. Any ideas?

[@7thGenerationDesign]

Hi Jordan - do you have an AC-6S or an AC-6 - if I remember correctly you need the 6S model to have programmability down to seconds.

[@JordanShowghi]

@@7thGenerationDesign yup that’s my problem! I have an AC-6. Thanks

In my wisdom I watched you after I put a time in start 1. To cancel this to get to off .I have pressed +/- never get to see OFF. Any suggestions. yes I want cycle for misting Thank you

Hello redwood1957, Just to make sure I understand - you want your timer to be set to a misting cycle (something like 15 seconds every 10 minutes between the hours of X and Y) but you can't get to the misting option because you already have an irrigation time set? If that is correct, you need to adjust the setting in the DURATION menu so select the little circular arrow icon (an arrow wrapping around on itself) - once this is selected you can set your misting interval and repeat window. You needn't worry if you have an irrigation start time already set under the STARTS menu - just keep moving through the menu until you see the gate open and gate closed icons - this is where you will set you start and end times for your misters to be operating each day. I hope this helps.

Hello I have 3 zones. I want the zones to go on for 1 minute 3 times a day. I can find the option where it will let me program it for the 3 times a day. Can you help

[@7thGenerationDesign]

hi Michael, you can set multiple start times each day for each individual valve - when you have the start time setting category selected, set your first time, then use the advance arrow to move to the second time window - set that, repeat for the third etc. Alternatively, you could also use the cyclical irrigation function at the end - for example, have your irrigation window start at 8 AM and end at 6 PM - a 10 hour long active window, but have set your intercycle time to be 5 hours, and your application time to be 1 minute. Either way should get the job done!

I need to set my mister to come on every 30 min for 20 seconds. What’s the minimum amount of seconds on this times?

[@7thGenerationDesign]

5 seconds is the minimum interval so you should be good to go
