Introduction

Thank you for selecting an Orbit® sprinkler Timer. Orbit® designers have
combined the simplicity of mechanical switches with the accuracy of digital
electronics to give you a Timer that is both easy to program and extremely
versatile. The Orbit®Timer provides convenience and flexibility, letting you
run a fully automatic, semi-automatic, or a manual watering program for all
your watering needs.
Please read this manual completely before you begin to program and use the
controller. A few of the most notable design features include:
At-a-Glance Simplicity
By turning the rotary dial to one of nine settings you can review programming or easily make changes.
Arm Chair Programmable
By inserting two AA alkaline batteries you can program the Timer prior to
installing it in its permanent location.
Fail-Safe Program / Non-Volatile Program Memory
If the Timer loses AC power, the existing program will not be lost. After the
AC power returns, the Timer will recall the last program into memory and
there will be no need to re-program. If both the AC power is lost and the
batteries are dead or missing, the user will only need to reset the time and
date; all other program settings are held in non-volatile memory, and there is
no need for re-entry.
Fuse
Red flashing LED indicates blown fuse. The 0.75 amp slow-blow fuse provides circuit protection. For replacement, use WaterMaster 0.75 amp fuse or
equivalent.
Lexan Language Covers
Available in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German.

1. Digital Display
A large LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) shows the time of day and indicates
many of the programming settings. The display is completely interactive
with all other controls.
2. Programming Keys
The Timer has seven push button keys for setup and program entry.
Working in conjunction with the rotary selector, the keys are used to set the
time of day, watering time, watering days, start times, and other functions.
3. Selector Dial
This large dial makes it easy to see which function is currently selected
and/or in which mode the Timer is set to operate.
4. Reset Button
The reset button clears the time, date and user-defined programming but does not
remove the factory installed fail-safe program. To prevent an accidental reset, the
button is recessed into the panel and must be pressed with a small pointed object
such as a pen or pencil tip.
Notable Programming Features
Two Watering Programs—Summary
The Timer gives you the option of using one or both of the independent programs. Note that each station can independently be set to either A or B or
both A and B programs.
Program–A
This program lets you schedule selected stations to water on specific days of
the week or to water every 2nd day. Program A repeats itself continuously in
successive weeks.
Program–B
Provides two options: One for odd or even day watering or for intervals ranging from everyday to every 28th day. This feature is designed to meet the
growing needs and restrictions imposed by local governments and to conserve water. The Timer automatically calculates odd and even days (by date)
for each month and makes adjustments for leap years to provide true odd
and even watering through the year 2095.
Start-Time Stacking
The Timer has the intelligence to “stack” start times that overlap.
If you enter two or more start times that overlap (in the same or in different
programs), the Timer will not activate two stations at the same time. Instead,
the Timer activates the first station and then activates the next station(s) in
sequence after the first station finishes its preset watering duration.
The Timer will NOT stack to the next calendar day. This prevents the Timer
from violating an odd or even day watering schedule.
Manual and Semi-Automatic Modes
The Timer gives you a number of manual and semi-automatic modes for flexibility in
watering. You can override the Timer’s automatic programming in a variety of ways.

Getting Started
Programming the Timer can be accomplished in just a few basic steps. Before
you begin programming, it is important to install the battery, set the time of
day and date, and establish a watering plan.
Install the Batteries
The Timer requires two AA batteries to maintain the time and date in case of
AC power loss. In a typical installation, fully charged batteries should provide
sufficient power for approximately one year of operation.
Remove the terminal cover.
Insert two AA batteries into the battery compartment.
Return the terminal cover to its closed position.
Weak or missing batteries can cause the time and date to be erased after a
power failure. If this happens, you will need to install fully charged batteries
and re-enter the time and date. All other program settings will be maintained
in non-volatile memory. The display will show "LO BAT" when it is time to
replace the battery.
Set the Time of Day and Date
If this is the first time the Timer has been programmed, you should press the
small recessed button labeled
installed fail-safe program [See Figure 2].

The Timer has two programs you can setup to control a variety of watering
schedules. Depending on your needs, you can use either or both programs.
Enter the Watering Schedule in Any Order
You have the option of entering your watering schedule in whatever order
you like. This feature makes it very easy to review and change your watering
schedule. Your settings can be changed at any time—while you’re setting up
the initial schedule or even after years of operation.
Start Times for Program A or B
Note: A start time is the time of day that the program begins watering the first station,
and all other stations in the program will then follow in sequence. There are not separate start times for each station. Start times do not correspond to specific stations, but to
programs (A or B). If you enter more than one start time, all stations in the specified
program will water again (in sequence).
The way you set the cycle start time is the same for both programs. Turn
the rotary dial to the

Installation of Weather-Resistant
Indoor-Outdoor Controllers
All our Weather-resistant Indoor/Outdoor controllers can run at temperatures
between 35 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit (0 to 60degrees Celsius). Storage temperature is -4 to 149F (-20 to 65C).
Direct sunlight can easily increase temperatures inside the Controllers so chose a
shaded location.
The controllers are weather-resistant to UL-50 and ETL
be placed in areas where continuous water could cause damage.

Caution: Do not open the Controller when it is raining.
To make installation easier the Controller has a removable door. Remember to
leave at least 7ins (18cm) to the left of the controller box for the door to swing
open after installation.
Check the model number of your timer: various models are configured differently
to meet national requirements, look for the section covering the model number
on your controller. The model number can be found on the back of the housing,
together with other useful information.
Models 57694, 57696, 57699, 57692
are for installation in Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa using the fitted line cord.
Models 57974, 57976, 57979, 57972

screw and allow the lower screw to recess into the lower hole in order to prevent the Controller from swinging. [See Fig.19].
The line cord may now be inserted into the power outlet.
Proceed to section 7.
Installation using permanent wiring
Preparing the Controller for Permanent Installation
Before commencing to install the controller you must remove the fitted line cord
and replace with the pigtail wires provided.
Ta ke off the terminal compartment cover by unscrewing the two screws and
pulling the plastic cover forward. [See figure 18], this reveals the AC Power
Cover [Figure 21].
Remove the rubber weather plug from the hole in the center and unscrew the
one fixing screw, pull the plastic cover forward to reveal the AC wiring.
Use a punch to create a hole in the blind Bottom Mounting Hole on the back
of the controller box [Figure 19: Bottom Mounting Hole].
Loosen the screw on the cord restraint and the three screws on the terminal
block and remove the line cord completely.
Feed the three wires of the pigtail through the exit nipple, under the strain
relief, and cross to the terminal block. Fasten the wires to the terminal block
ensuring that the black wire is connected to the Live terminal marked L, the
white wire is connected to the Neutral terminal marked N, and the green wire
is connected to the Earth terminal marked E. Ensure that the terminal screws
and the strain relief screw are all firmly tightened. Check that the wires are
clear of any obstruction and will not be trapped by the AC Power Cover when
it is replaced.
Replace the AC Power Cover and screw tight, do not force into place, if resis-
tance is met check that no wires are trapped.
The Controller is now ready for permanent installation; follow all the instruc-
tions for the following models to complete the installation. (use expanding
anchors in plaster or masonry if necessary).
Models 57684, 57686, 57689, 57682
International Models 94114, 94116, 94119, 94112
All the above listed models are designed for permanent installation only. Local
building and electrical codes usually require that an approved electrical conduit and electrical fittings be used to connect exterior wall-mounted
equipment to AC power. Please check local codes. Any permanent connection
should be made by a licensed electrical contractor in accordance with the
requirements of the National Electrical Code and other state and local codes.
Ta ke off the terminal compartment cover of the controller by unscrewing the
two screws and pulling the plastic cover forward. [Figure 18].
Remove the rubber weather plug from the screw hole.
Use the mounting template provided to assist you in preparing the mounting
location: choose a flat, clean surface.

do not over-tighten.
The Controller has separate compartments for the AC line power input and the
low voltage outputs. You must keep the input power and the low voltage in their
separate places when wiring the
controller box.
The controller has a built in transformer that must be connected to
an AC line voltage source. Check

FIGURE 21: AC Wiring Using Junction Box
The controller has a nipple-mounted external power connection [Figure 21]. Use
this 1/2 inch (13mm) NPT nipple to connect the controller to a standard electrical junction box that should be UL Listed (or equivalent) or comply with IEC or
EN standards (or equivalent).
Tu rn off the AC power at the AC circuit breaker and apply an appropriate
safety lockout. Verify that the power has been turned off to the installation site
using an AC voltmeter set for the correct measurement range.
Use power feed wire of 14 gauge (AWG) minimum with a temperature rating
of 155 degrees Fahrenheit (68 degrees Celsius) or higher.
Install the conduit and associated fittings. Connect the AC electrical power
wiring to the source by following all the right codes and local standards.
Connect the junction box (not included) to the NPT nipple [Figure 21].
Connect the source power conduit to the entrance of the junction box, fol-
lowing all the appropriate codes.
Connect the source wires to the wires extending from the controller. Take
care to follow the correct color code. For USA: connect the Green for
Ground, Black for Live, and White for Neutral. Often the source ground may
be bare copper conductor rather than green wire. For Europe: Live is Brown
and Neutral is Blue, there is no ground connection required. Be sure that all
wires are connected to the proper source wire.
Make sure all connections are made with code-approved insulated connec-
tors.
Be sure to place a weatherproof gasket and lid on the junction box.

Installing Valves, Pump Start
Relays & Master Valves
1. Wiring the Electric Valves
If the distance between the controller and valves is under 700 feet (210
m), use WaterMaster
thermostat wire to connect the controller to the valves. If the distance is
over 700 feet (210 m), use 16 gauge (AWG) wire. Terminals accept up to
14 gauge wire. The wire can be buried in the ground; however, for more
protection wires can be pulled through conduit and buried underground.
Be careful to avoid burying the wires in locations where they could be
damaged by digging or trenching in the future.
Each valve has two wires. One wire is to be connected as the common.
The common wires for all the valves can be connected together to one
common wire going to the timer. The other valve wire is to be connected
to the specific station wire that will control that valve
[See Figure 22].
All wires should be joined together using wire nuts, solder, and/or vinyl
tape. For additional protection to waterproof connections, a WaterMaster®
grease cap can be used.
To avoid electrical hazards, only one valve should be connected to
each station.

Introduction
1
Nous vous remercions d'avoir choisi un programmateur Orbit pour système
d'arrosage. Les concepteurs d'Orbit ont associé la simplicité d'interrupteurs
mécaniques à la précision d'équipements électroniques numériques pour vous
présenter un programmateur toute à la fois facile à programmer et très souple.
Le programmateur Orbit offre facilité et flexibilité et vous permet d'utiliser un
programme d'arrosage complètement automatique, semi-automatique ou
manuel pour tous vos besoins en arrosage. Veuillez lire ce manuel complètement avant de commencer à programmer et utiliser le programmateur. Voici
certaines des caractéristiques de conception les plus remarquables:
Simplicité
En positionnant le commutateur sur l'un des neuf réglages, vous pouvez
réviser la programmation ou effectuer des modifications.
Programmable dans votre fauteuil
Insérer deux piles alcalines AA pour permettre la programmation du programmateur avant son installation dans son emplacement permanent.
Programme permanent/Mémoire de programme non volatile
Si le courant CA activant le programmateur est coupé, le programme existant ne
sera pas perdu. Une fois le programmateur de nouveau sous tension (courant
CA), il rappellera le dernier programme qui se trouvait en mémoire et il ne sera
pas nécessaire de reprogrammer. Si le courant CA est interrompu et les piles
sont plates ou absentes, l'utilisateur devra uniquement régler de nouveau l'heure
et la date; tous les autres réglages du programme sont gardés en mémoire non
volatile, et aucun réglage supplémentaire ne devra être entré de nouveau.
Fusible
Une DÉL rouge clignotante indique un fusible grillé. Le fusible à fusion temporisée de 1,0 ampère offre une protection de circuit. Pour le remplacer,
utiliser un fusible WaterMaster de 1,0 ampère ou l'équivalent.

1. Affichage digital
Un grand LCD (affichage à cristaux liquides) indique l'heure actuelle ainsi
que plusieurs des réglages de programmation. L'affichage est complètement
interactif avec tous les autres contrôles.
2. Touches de programmation
Le programmateur a sept bouton-poussoirs pour le réglage et la programmation. Les boutons, utilisés conjointement au sélecteur rotatif, sont employés
pour régler l'heure actuelle, l'heure d'arrosage, les jours d'arrosage, les heures
de démarrages et autres fonctions.
3. Sélecteur rotatif
Le sélecteur rotatif est le coeur du programmateur. Simple commutateur à
cadran, il permet de voir quelle fonction est sélectionnée et/ou le mode
d'opération du programmateur.
4. Bouton de réinitialisation
Le bouton de réinitialisation efface l'heure et la date mais ne retire pas le programme permanent installé à l'usine. Afin d'empêcher toute réinitialisation
accidentelle, le bouton est placé dans un enfoncement du panneau et doit
être pressé à l'aide d'un objet pointu tel que la pointe d'un crayon ou d'un
stylo-bille.
Caractéristiques de programmation
remarquables
Deux programmes d'arrosage—Résumé
Le programmateur présente l'option d'utilisation de chacun de ces programmes indépendants ou de tous les deux. Il faut noter que chaque station
peut être réglée indépendamment pour le programme A ou B ou pour les
deux programmes simultanément.
Programme–A
Ce programme vous laisse organiser l'arrosage des stations sélectionnées
durant certains jours spécifiques ou un arrosage tous les deux jours. Le programme A se répète continuellement de semaine en semaine.
Programme–B
Offre deux options: Une option présentant un arrosage durant les jours pairs
ou impairs ou une option présentant des intervalles d'1 à 28 jours. Cette caractéristique est conçue pour satisfaire les besoins croissants et les restrictions
imposées par les gouvernements locaux ainsi que pour conserver l'eau. Le
programmateur calcule automatiquement les jours pairs et impairs (par date)
pour chaque mois et effectue les ajustements nécessaires pour les années bissextiles afin de présenter un arrosage à jours pairs ou impairs réels jusqu'à
l'an 2095.
11
FRANÇAIS
Empilage des temps de démarrage
Le programmateur a l'"intelligence" d'"empiler" (c'est-à-dire qu'elle mettra à la
suite l'un de l'autre) des temps de démarrage qui se chevauchent. Si vous
entrez deux ou plusieurs temps de démarrages qui se chevauchent (que ce
soit dans un programme identique ou différent), le programmateur n'activera
pas deux stations simultanément. Dans une situation ou des temps de démarrages se chevauchent, le programmateur activera la première station et
activera ensuite la(les) station(s) suivante(s) successivement lorsque l'arrosage
de la première station sera terminé.
Le programmateur n'empilera PAS jusqu'au prochain jour. Cela empêche le
programmateur d'enfreindre le programme d'arrosage en jours pairs ou
impairs.
Modes manuel et semi-automatique
Le programmateur vous offre un certain nombre de modes manuels et semiautomatiques pour permettre une flexibilité des arrosages. Vous pouvez
outrepasser la programmation automatique du programmateur de plusieurs
manières.
section
Pour commencer
2
La programmation du programmateur peut être accomplie par une série de
quelques étapes de base. Avant de commencer la programmation, il est
important d'installer les piles, de régler l'heure actuelle et d'établir un programme d'arrosage.
Installation des piles
Le programmateur requiert deux piles AA pour maintenir l'heure et la date en
cas d'une perte de courant CA. Dans une installation typique, des piles complètement chargées devraient fournir un courant suffisant pour environ une
année de fonctionnement.
Retirer le couvercle du bornier
Insérer deux piles AA dans le compartiment pour piles.
Remettre le couvercle du bornier dans sa position fermée.
Des batteries plates ou manquantes peuvent provoquer l'effacement de l'heure
et de la date en cas d'une panne de courant. Dans ce cas, vous devrez
installer des piles complètement chargées et entrer de nouveau l'heure et la
date. Tous les autres réglages du programme seront maintenus en mémoire
non volatile.
Régler l'heure et la date
S'il s'agit de la première programmation du programmateur, vous devriez
presser sur le bouton, situé dans le petit enfoncement, nommé
Réinitialisation ("Reset"). Lorsque vous appuyez sur ce bouton, le programme
permanent installé en usine n'est pas affecté [voir figure 2].

Programmation
3
Le programmateur a deux programmes que vous pouvez régler pour contrôler divers plans d’arrosage. Selon vos besoins, vous pouvez utiliser soit un
programme ou les deux.
Entrer le programme d’arrosage en ordre
Vous avez l'option d'entrer le programme d'arrosage dans l'ordre que vous
désirez. Cette caractéristique facilite la révision et la modification du plan
d'arrosage. Vos réglages peuvent être changés à tout moment, lorsque vous

Heures de démarrage pour le programme
A ou B
Note: Une heure de démarrage est l'heure à laquelle le programme commence
l'arrosage de la première station, et toutes les autres stations suivent alors en série.
Il n'y a pas d'heures de démarrage séparés pour chaque station. Les heures de
démarrage ne correspondent pas à des stations spécifiques. Si vous entrez plus d'une
heure de démarrage, toutes les stations programmées pour fonctionner seront
arrosées de nouveau (successivement).
La manière selon laquelle vous réglez l'heure de démarrage est identique
pour les deux programmes. Positionner le commutateur sur
