The Shutdown mode will cause the WeatherTRAK controller to stop current and future irrigation indefinitely. Depletion for stations in auto will be accumulated, the normally open master valve will be energized and the controller will still run the daily valve check.

The shutdown mode should not be used long term as continuous power to a solenoid may cause premature solenoid failure.

1.  Press OFF.

2.  Press + or – until the Shutdown screen displays. A 5-second countdown will begin, shutting down the controller.
