How to Program Your Controller in the Rain Bird 2.0 App

Click on Program from the controller screen. At the top, you can give your program a custom name. You can also set the watering frequency, the start times, and the zone run times.

Watering frequency options include watering on Odd, Even, Custom, or Cyclic Days. An example of Custom Days is above, where you choose the specific days each week that will water. An example of Cyclic Days is below. This is where you water every “blank” number of days and choose how often that is. If you want to water once a week, you choose seven days, or every two weeks, watering is 14 days. This is often used for trees that need irregular deep-root watering. The “Days Remaining” means how many days are left until the watering occurs (i.e., the cycle’s first day or the day it waters).

To change a scheduled watering time, tap on the programmed time per zone and select the new time.

• Note: Zones with overlapping start times run sequentially; the controller does not turn them on simultaneously.

To turn a zone or program “off” or to keep it from running, you can change all the zone run times to 0 minutes. This allows you to keep the days of the week and start times in the schedule, but the zone or program will not run.
