Skip Rules

Overview

You can choose to skip watering schedules created by your Smart Program and/or Manual Program. There are 4 skip rules that you can use based on Actual Rainfall, Chance of Rain, Rain Sensor Skip, Manual Skip, and Freeze Prevention.

Rainfall Skip

The Rainfall Skip is a new skip rule that allows you to skip certain days according to the actual rainfall reported from the weather station. Simply specify the "number of skip days" and the "minimum rainfall" to trigger this feature.

Chance of Rain

Set the threshold from 10% to 90%. If the chance of rain (or POP - probability of precipitation) from the weather forecast is higher than your set threshold, the schedules on that day will be skipped. 

Rain Sensor Skip

This is also called "Rain Delay". Set the skip day(s) from 1 to 7 days. When your rain sensor is triggered, the watering schedules in the following day(s) of your choice will be skipped.

Manual Skip

You can skip your watering schedules for any reason. Set the skip day(s) from 1 to 7 days.

Freeze Prevention

You can skip watering schedules due to low temperature. Set the temperature threshold to 32F, 36F, 41F, or 50F (0C, 2.2C, 5C, or 10C). As long as the Low Temperature Forecast is lower than the threshold, your watering schedules will be skipped.
