Step 1 – Route valve wires from the valves, master valves, pump relay and/or sensor into the controller cabinet.
Note: 18 AWG (1.0 mm2) multi-wire sprinkler valve connection cable can be used. is cable is insulated for direct burial
and is color-coded to simplify installation. It can be routed directly into the controller through the access hole provided for
valve wire conduit (if conduit is not used).
Step 2 –$POOFDUWBMWFTNBTUFSWBMWFTBOEQVNQTUBSUSFMBZUPUIFWBMWFXJSFT - Connect the white color-coded wire from the cable
to one wire from each valve solenoid and/or pump relay. (Either of the two wires from the solenoid or pump relay can be used
for this connection.) is connection will be designated as the valve common wire.
Connect a separate cable wire to the remaining wire from each valve solenoid. Note the wire color-code used for each valve and
the zone it controls. You will need this information when connecting the valve wires to the controller.
$POOFDUTFOTPSUPUIFWBMWFXJSFT - Connect any two unused color-coded wires to the sensor. Note the color-code of the
sensor wires for installation.
Step 3 – Secure all wire splices using wire nut connectors. To prevent corrosion and possible short circuits, always use an insulated wire
nut, grease cap or similar waterproong method.
Step 4 –$POOFDUWBMWFTXJSFTUPUIFDPOUSPMMFS- Secure the valve common wire (white) to either of the two terminals labeled COM.
Secure the individual valve wires to the appropriate zones they control, Zone 1 valve to terminal 1, Zone 2 valve to terminal 2, etc.
$POOFDUNBTUFSWBMWFQVNQSFMBZXJSFTUPUIFDPOUSPMMFS- Secure the valve common wire (white) to either of the two
terminals labeled COM. Secure the Master Valve or Pump Relay wire to the terminal labeled .716.1.

$POOFDUTFOTPSXJSFTUPUIFDPOUSPMMFS- Remove the jumper wire from the SENSORS terminals. Secure the two sensor wires
to the sensor terminals. Refer to the provided sensor instructions for further installation instructions.

Advanced Functions
You can access the EVOLUTIONTM controller’s advanced functions by pressing the ADVANCED button and then pressing
SELECT button to conrm. In the Advanced Functions, you can activate additional schedules, check and set runtimes and start times to all
schedules in one screen, set schedule and zone details, set rain sensors to the schedules, perform diagnostics test, check rmware version and
reset the controller to factory defaults.
Zone Runtimes
e Zone Runtimes function is where you can set any of the zones to any of the three schedules (A, B and C). All the zones are listed from
least to greatest. You can then set any zone to a schedule by entering a runtime to its corresponding schedule column.
Step 1 – While in the ADVANCED menu, use the Up or Down arrows to select the ZONE RUNTIMES. Press SELECT
to access.
Step 2 – Use the Up or Down arrows to select the zone you want to edit. Press SELECT .

Step 3 – Use the Left or Right arrows to navigate to the runtime you want to edit. Enter runtime using the Up or
Down arrows. Moving to another parameter will save the changes as well as pressing the SELECT button.
Repeat Step 3 as necessary to assign runtimes to other schedules.
Note: e maximum runtime that you can assign to a zone is 12 hours. Water Adjustment will not increase the runtime
beyond 12 hours.
Step 4 – Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the remaining zones as necessary.
Step 5 – To remove a zone from a schedule, set the runtime to OFF.
Step 6 – Press the BACK arrow to return to the previous menu or HOME to return to the main screen.

.716.1 – Set to ON if a master valve is used in conjunction with this zone. Connect the master valve relay to MV PUMP
terminals. If no master valve is used in conjunction with this zone, set to OFF.
$:$-& and SOAK – is function is used to break the zone’s runtime into shorter cycles to allow the water to penetrate the
soil and avoid runo or wasted water.
e cycle time is the length of time the zone will run before entering a soak time.
e soak time is set as a delay between zone cycles. It is usually used to allow water to penetrate the soil into the root system.
Allowing a soak time prevents water waste from water runo during irrigation. Water runo can occur when the applied
irrigation is higher than the absord rate of the soil being irrigated. e excess water will then accumulate on top of the soil and
will form a runo stream carrying water away from where it should be applied.
e cycle and soak will continue until the total runtime for the zone has been met.
Step 5 – Press the BACK arrow to return to the previous menu or HOME to return to the main screen.
