how do I schedule an irrigation interval?

[ijsbrand]

Hi Jim,

I noticed that one can choose the days of the week that watering should take place. But how do I schedule an irrigation every 2 or 3 days?

Thanks

Hello ijsbrand,

LawnCheck was designed primarily as a calendar based scheduler because most people want irrigation on specific days of the week.

With that said it is possible to schedule irrigation every other day by using the Odd/Even compliance setting.  Just schedule irrigation for every day of the week, and at the bottom of the program screen find "Ordinance Restriction."  Check either Odd day only or Even days only on to achieve every 2 day irrigation.  (Except you will get irrigation on the 31st/1st of months that have 31 days if you use Odd day only).

Hope this allows you to set up a schedule to meet your needs.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your reply. I really like the program, but being able to schedule 3 or - why not - 4 days intervals would be my recommendation no. 1 for future upgrades (in addition to the graphics and the dashboard status that others have been proposing). Besides offering more choice and flexibility to users, it would also be consistent with the idea of providing larger supplies over longer periods, key to more efficient water use.

Thanks a lot
