    Step-by-Step Guide

    Accessing Manual Operations

    Manual operations in BaseManager allow you to override automated schedules and directly control irrigation functions. This is useful for testing, maintenance, or addressing immediate watering needs outside of your programmed schedule.

    1. Navigate to the manual operations interface in BaseManager.

    2. Select the controller or station you want to operate manually.


    Running a Manual Heat Cycle

    The heat function is used to manually activate irrigation for a specific zone or station. This operation bypasses any programmed schedules and runs immediately.

    1. Locate and select the Heat option for the desired station.

    2. Confirm the manual heat operation to begin irrigation.

    3. Monitor the operation to ensure the station activates as expected.


    Stopping Manual Operations

    You can terminate a manual operation at any time before its scheduled completion.

    1. Access the active manual operation from the controller interface.

    2. Select the stop or cancel option to immediately halt the irrigation cycle.

    3. Verify that the station has shut down and water flow has ceased.
