How to Schedule Future Watering Changes without Returning to the Site with the ESP-BAT-BT

ESP-BAT-BT includes several scheduling options that let you plan watering restrictions and shutdowns in advance. In each case, the controller automatically returns to its normal schedule when the restriction ends, eliminating the need for another site visit.

Permanent No-Water Days: Prevent watering on a specific day of the week even when using an interval schedule—for example, always keeping a mowing or maintenance day dry.

Calendar Days Off: Select specific dates throughout the year when irrigation should not run, such as holidays, scheduled events, or days when a park will be heavily used.

Monthly Seasonal Adjust: Set watering adjustments for every month of the year in advance. Set a month to 0% to stop irrigation completely, then program a future month with the desired adjustment so irrigation automatically resumes—ideal for seasonal shutdowns and winterization.

Rain Delay: Temporarily pause irrigation and have the controller automatically resume its normal schedule when the delay ends.

Set these changes ahead of time and let the controller handle the rest—no return trip required just to turn irrigation off or remember to turn it back on.
