Section 2: Installation

Required Tools

• Phillips Screwdriver
• Wire Strippers

1. Select a Location
When choosing a location for your timer, consider the following:

• Choose a location near an electrical outlet.
• Ensure operating temperatures are not below 0°Celsius or above 70° Celsius.
• Locate the timer where there is easy access to sprinkler wire (from valves).

2. Mount the Timer

• Use the mounting template (included) to mark the mounting screw location on the wall. See figure 1
• Install a No. 8 screw into wall in the upper template location. Leave the screw head protruding 3mm from wall. Use expanding anchors (included) in plaster or masonry, if necessary, for a secure hold.
• Slip the timer over protruding screw (using keyhole slot in back of timer). See figure 2
• Drive a No. 8 screw through one of the two pre-formed holes located in lower corners of the cabinet. See figure 2

3. Connect Valve Wires to Timer

• Strip 12 mm of the plastic insulation off the end of each wire for both the timer wires and the valve wires.
• Connect one wire from each valve (it doesn’t matter which wire) to a single “Common” sprinkler wire (usually white).
• Connect the remaining wire from each valve to a separate colored sprinkler wire.

See figure 3

Note: The maximum loading for each station/pump is 250mA (one valve), the maximum loading for the timer is 500mA.

If more than one valve is connected to a station the timer will be permanently damaged.
If the distance between the sprinkler timer and valves is under 210 m, use Orbit® sprinkler wire or 20 gauge (AWG) plastic jacketed thermostat wire to connect the sprinkler timer to the valves. If the distance is over 210 m, use 16 gauge (AWG) wire.

Important: All wires should be joined together using wire nuts, solder, and/or vinyl tape. In wet environments like a valve box it is recommended to use Orbit Grease Caps or Speed Seals to prevent corrosion of the connection and for protection from water infiltration.

Wiring Electric Valves
Strip 12 mm of plastic insulation off the end of each individual wire. Each valve has two wires. One wire (it doesn’t matter which one) is to be connected as the common. The other valve wire is to be connected to the specific station wire that will control that valve. The common wires for all the valves can be connected together to one common wire going to the controller. To avoid electrical hazards and damage to the timer, only one valve should be connected to each station. See Figure 4

Important: The wire can be buried in the ground; however, for more protection wires can be pulled through PVC pipe and buried underground. Be careful to avoid burying the wires in locations where they could be damaged by digging or trenching in the future.

Only connect one valve to each terminal (station) or damage will occur

Your timer is equipped with the simple “push-in” terminals for easy connection. Connect common wire to the common terminal. Connect remaining wires to corresponding terminal locations.

4. Connect Electrical Transformer Power
Connect power connector to the timer. Insert the transformer into an 120V electrical outlet. See Figure 5

5. Activate Battery
One Lithium CR2032 battery (included) is required to retain the program in memory during power loss. Annual replacement is recommended.
Remove the plastic strip to activate the pre-installed battery. (See page 12 for battery replacement)

Note: The battery alone will not operate the valves in your sprinkler system. The sprinkler timer has a built-in transformer that must be connected to an AC voltage source.

Section 3: Programming with

A note about multiple programs
Your sprinkler timer provides the flexibility of using 2 independent programs (A, B). The programs are where you store all of your sprinkler settings. Each program consists of a group of stations set to specific start times and run times. Multiple programs allow you to run different valves on different days with different run times. While many applications only require one program (A), using multiple programs (A, B) can be useful for drip areas, newly planted lawn, or rotary sprinkler stations. Using programs to group stations with similar water needs will maximize irrigation efficiency.
Primary programming can be accomplished in just a few basic steps.

Primary Programming
Press the [RESET] to clear any previous factory programming

1. Set Clock

Please note that [START TIME] is the time of day that your programmed watering starts. You can set up to 4 start times at each program if you want to water more than once per day. All stations that have a programmed run time (how long) will run in sequence at each start time.

Note: Start-Time Stacking
When a start time is set before the previous program has completed, that start time will be “stacked” or delayed, and will start upon completion of the previous program.

Example: Bill just planted new grass seed and wants to water three times per day. He sets START TIME 1 for 5am, START TIME 2 for 12pm, and START TIME 3 for 5 pm.

He sets the INT (interval) to water every 1 DAYS (see section 3, HOW OFTEN).

In AUTO mode the system will water 3 times per day. Once Bill’s sod is established he can CLEAR start times 2 and 3 and return to watering just once per day.

4. Run Time

• Turn the dial to [RUN TIME].

• Press the PROGRAM button to select which program you’d like to set.

STATION is the area that will be watered by each valve. On this screen the RUN TIME or duration for each station is set.

Example: Monday, Wednesday, & Friday Intervals

• Use the [ ] buttons to move to the INTERVAL option “INT”.
• Press [+/–] buttons to select the number of days between watering.

Example: An interval of 1 will water every day; an interval of 3 will water every 3rd day, etc.

Odd or Even Days

• Use the [ ] buttons to move to the ODD or EVEN day watering.
  – Press [+] or [ENTER]
• Selecting a different option or pressing clear will erase the previous selection.

Example: Odd: 1st, 3rd, 5th, etc.

Example: Even: 2nd, 4th, 6th, etc.

Example: To manually water on station 3 for five minutes, press the [MANUAL] button then press the [ ] buttons until you see station 3; using the [+/–] buttons, set duration to five minutes; press [ENTER].

Note: After the [MANUAL] button has been pushed, if a selection is not made within 5 seconds all stations and programs will begin watering using the programmed RUN TIMES. If no RUN TIMES have been set, nothing will happen and the display will return to the time of day.

Connecting a Rain Sensor

• Connect the rain sensor wires to the wiring terminal ports (yellow in color) labeled “Sensor” (see figure 6).

Note: Refer to your rain sensor manual for specific wiring instructions.

• Place the sensor on/off switch to the “on” position to begin operation.

Rain Sensor Bypass
This sprinkler timer is equipped with a sensor override “on/off” switch. This switch is for use during maintenance and repairs, so the sprinkler timer can be operated even if the rain sensor is in active mode.

Important: If the rain sensor switch is in the “on” position and no sensor is connected, the sprinkler timer will not operate. To resume sprinkler timer operation place the switch in the off position.

Replacing the Battery
Your timer requires a CR2032 Lithium battery.

• The battery will maintain your program in case of an AC power loss.
• Battery should last approximately one year.
• Open by sliding the battery tray out to the right.
• Insert one CR2032 battery into the compartment with the + side up.
• Slide back into place.

A weak or missing battery can cause the time, date, and program to be erased after a power failure. If this happens, you will need to install a fully charged battery and reprogram the timer.

Tip: Replace battery every year, to avoid loss of programming.

Note: A battery alone will not operate the valves in your sprinkling system. The sprinkler timer transformer must be connected to an AC line voltage source.

All you have to do is connect the wires according to the instructions in this manual and then mount the unit on a wall or ceiling using the included mounting hardware.

Can you use 2 different Orbit wifi controllers on same app?

Yes

Does this replace a diaphragm valve, or a timer that a pump is hooked up to?

It controls the opening and closing of diaphragm valves, but it does not replace them. It does have a “pump” circuit, to switch your pump on and off at running times.

Can I remotely turn on a valve manually from the smartphone app? That is why I want to buy a wifi controller.

Yes you can, you can manually control individual valves from the app.

Can a master valve be wired? If so, where does it plug in? Can I plug it at the “pump” terminal?

Yes, you can wire a master valve into the “Pump” terminal.

Can this controller use to control one 24v solenoid for a 4 zone index valve? did anyone tried and succeed ? capable of 4 on/off times in 1 day?

Yes it can! Also…You can set as many on/off times you want in a 24 hour period.

Does this work with Smartthings?

No, it doesn’t work with smartthings.

Is it compatible with Google home mini?

Do not know what google mini is

Does this time have the ability to withstand heat and cold? It would be placed on my garage wall (inside).

The package insert says operating temperature range is 32-158°F (0-70°C), humidity 0-80% and altitude 6,500ft. I have no idea why the altitude would be a limiting factor unless there is a built-in barometric pressure sensor on the circuit board.

Can this replace an old time for four zone system?

It should providing the old system used low voltage (24vac) valves and used a 24vac contactor to start and stop the pump if your system has a pump. If your old system used a mechanical time clock and an indexing valve to switch zones you would need to replace the time clock with a low voltage contactor and program the new controller to switch the pump off and back on to make the indexing change zones. This controller has 5 low power relays internally that the controller uses to turn power on and off to the valves and pump control contactor.

how to change when watering occurs?

Not quite sure what the question is.
If you’re asking about changing settings once your lawn has been watered then all you have to do is open the app and make any changes moving forward.

Is it safe for outside ?

It’s not weather sealed, so no. And it requires the router password for your internet system which means it’s not safe inside OR outside.

why are the dimensions conflicting?

Yes

Can the B-hyve connect over a Verizon cellular mifi for monitoring and use at a remote location?

As long as you have a wifi internet connection between your phone and the controller you should be able to control the unit.
