1. Where to Use Your GARDENA Water Computer

The GARDENA Water Computer is intended for private use in
domestic and hobby gardens, exclusively for outdoor use, to
control sprinklers and watering systems. The Water Computer
can be used for automatic watering during holidays.

The GARDENA Water Computer must not be used for
industrial purposes or in conjunction with chemicals,
foodstuffs, easily flammable and explosive materials.

Intended use:

Please note:

2. Safety Instructions

Battery:

To ensure the Water Computer runs safely,
only a 9V alkaline manganese battery
(alkaline) type IEC 6LR61 must be used.

In order to stop the Water Computer from
failing because of a weak battery if you are
away for a long time, the battery must be
replaced when the battery symbol flashes.

4

GB

Setting up

The Water Computer may only be set up
vertically with the sleeve nut to the top to
prevent water penetrating into the battery
compartment.

The minimum water output to ensure that
the Water Computer functions correctly is
20

-

30 l/h.
For example, at least 10 to 15 pieces of
2-litre Drip Heads are required to control
the Micro-Drip-System.

At high temperatures (over 60 °C at the
display) the LCD display may extinguish.
This does not affect the program in any
way. When the computer cools down the
LCD display illuminates again.

The max. temperature for the water flow is
40 °C.

v Only use clear fresh water.
The minimum operating pressure is 0.5 bar,

the maximum operating pressure is 12 bar.
Avoid tensile strain.

v Do not pull the hose connected to the

Water Computer.

If the controller is removed when the valve
is open, the valve remains open until the
controller is fitted again.

3. Function

With the Water Computer, the garden can be watered fully auto­matically up to 6 times a day at any time of day. Sprinklers, a
sprinkler system or a drip head watering system can be used for
watering.

5

GB

The Water Computer carries out watering fully automatically
according to the set programs and can therefore also be used
during holidays. Early in the morning or late in the evening,
evaporation and therefore water consumption is lowest.

The watering programmes are easily entered using the controls.

A watering program comprises the watering duration, cycle and
start time.

Apart from scheduled watering there is also the option of including
how damp the soil is or rainfall into the watering programme.

Note:

If the soil is damp enough, the programme will be stopped, or
a programme will be prevented from starting. Manual operation
is possible at all times.

1. Remove controller

6. Water Distributor automatic (optional)

Connecting the GARDENA Water Distributor automatic
Art. No. 1197 (or predecessor Art. 1198) allows you to control

up to 6 watering lines with the Water Computer MaxControl.
Each of the 6 watering lines can only be actuated once a day.
This is ideal where there is an insufficient amount of water or

where individual areas of the garden have varying water require­ments. It allows all watering lines to be operated one after
another.

Using the special function, your Water Computer MaxControl is
able to take into account the special requirements of the Water
Distributor automatic, when programming.

Watering must not be carried out manually, as otherwise the
programmes will no longer be correctly assigned to the outlets.

If program data have already been inserted beforehand, a
RESET must be undertaken before the special function can
be set.

v Keep

+-key and OK-key pressed simultaneously for

2 seconds.

To ensure the Water Distributor automatic switches safely there
must be at least a 30 minute break between the programs entered
in the Water Computer.

When you have confirmed the special function with OK and
have entered the data for the first program (see 5. Program ming)
all the programmes which follow will be pre-programmed auto­matically.

The pre-programming takes into consideration the 30 minute
break required between the programs as well as a minimum
watering time of 30 seconds (display:

1

min.).
This watering time is required to allow the Water Distributor
automatic to switch to the next outlet and to ensure that the
order of the watering programs to the appropriate watering
line is retained.

The watering days entered for the watering program are valid
for all other watering programs.

Special function

22

GB

You can alter the watering starting times and watering times
pre-programmed by the Water Computer to meet your personal
requirements. However, if you do not take into account the break
times mentioned above, any changes you make are not accepted
and an error message appears on the display (Error).

Since it is very easy for watering times to overlap slightly, espe­cially when the beginnings and ends of programs are very close
together, it is sensible to RESET the Water Computer and to
re-enter the watering data to prevent an error message appearing.

If the watering programs are switched off after you have con­firmed the special function (status indicator on Off Prog.) all the
programs which begin in this time are shortened to the minimum
watering time of 30 seconds (display:

1

min.) This ensures that
the order of the watering programs to the appropriate outlet of
the Water Distributor automatic is retained.

By briefly opening the water flow the outlets on the Water
Distributor automatic are switched further so that when the
watering programs are reactivated (On Prog) the original order
of the outlets for the required watering program is retained.

When using the Water Computer MaxControl together
with the Water Distributor automatic, Soil Moisture Sensor
(Art. No. 1188) or Rain Sensor electronic (Art. No. 1189)
please note the following:

If the special function is activated and the Soil Moisture or
Rain Sensor indicates sufficient moisture, watering is interrupted.
The watering time of following watering programs is shortened
to 30 seconds (display: 1min.) until the Soil Moisture / Rain
Sensor allows the watering programs to be resumed. The water­ing time originally entered then begins.

Shortening the watering time when the soil is sufficiently moist
ensures that the Water Distributor automatic is switched to the
next outlet and therefore ensures that the correct order of the
watering program for the respective distributor outlet is retained.

1) All 6 outlets are connected (with or without sensor) :

When a device is connected to all 6 outlets, the special function
must be used (see page 19). If the sensor reports moisture, the
current programme is only carried out for 30 sec. so that the Water
Distributor will switch further.

2) 2 to 5 outlets are connected with a sensor:

If fewer than 6 outlets are connected and a sensor is used, then
the special function must be utilised. The non-used outlets must be
programmed with the minimum watering duration of 30 sec. (dis­play 1 min.), so that the Water Distributor will switch further and
assignment of programme and outlet on the Water Distributor will
be maintained. Non-used outlets must be connected with a used
outlet so that no water leaks from the non-used outlets during
further switching. All setting levers on the Water Distributor must
be set on „On“.

GB

24

GB

3) 2 to 5 outlets are connected without a sensor :

If fewer than 6 outlets are used, and no sensor is employed,
the programmes must be programmed as usual (see

5. Programming). All programmes must have the same cycle
and there must be minimum pauses of 5 minutes between the
programmes so that secure further switching is guaranteed.
