Same Zone, Two Manual Programs

I just installed my new Yardian and am setting up manual programs.

I have configured each of my zones (4 for lawn and 1 for trees & ground cover).

For my trees and ground cover zone I want to set up two programs:

1. A long watering duration on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 4:00 am.
2. A short watering duration, twice per day on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday at 2:00 am and 1:00 pm

When I try to assign the zone to one program, the zone gets removed from the other program. I cannot get the zone to remain active on the two programs.

How can this watering schedule be achieved?

  Hi Gary,

  Currently putting a zone in multiple programs (Manual or Smart Program) is not allowed. However, you can use Conditional Program(s) as a work-around. It's easier to have multiple start times in a Manual Program so you can put #2 in a Manual Program with 2 start times. You can then create a Conditional Program for the #1 and set the temperature threshold to 32F so this program will definitely be executed.

  We will allow one zone on multiple programs later.

  Best regards,
  Joseph
