The ones in the videos is 10 ft. Half circle. in full distance setting. You may like to check out our nozzle selection Article at smartirrigation.com for more information on different nozzels.

Each color on the top shows the radius (distance) the spray is designed to shoot. You can check out our article on spray nozzle selection on smartirrigation.com for a run down of the different colors and distances

You are most certainl welcome! Glad it was explained well!

You are very welcome!

Haha yes, I realized that after it was too late 😅

I'm very glad this helped!! Your welcome!

Wow thanks for your support!! Glad it was useful for you!!

Wow thanks for your support!!! I'm very glad it helped you!!

You are certainly most welcome sir!

Thanks for watching! Our focus on this video was programming, whereas the manual option you mention is for a one-time operation of the sprinklers outside of the automatic program we just set, but if that's something you'd like demonstrates we'll try to make a video on that in the near future! Thanks for the idea and input!

According to rainbird, and our experience, they do come factory preset for their maximum distance. You can check their install guide here: www.rainbird.com/media/4486, where it says "The factory default setting is the maximum range for each model." However, they might not have in your case. It would be interesting to see if this was an anomaly with a certain batch, or if rainbird has changed their setting procedure without updating their literature. Thanks for letting us know and we'll keep an eye out

Thank you so much 👍

Glad it was helpful and you are very welcome!

Glad to hear that! You're welcome!

Thanks for the kind words!! I'm glad the video helped you adjust your sprinklers!

I'm really glad it was helpful! Thanks!

Hi Mohamed, its hard to say without seeing the controller or wiring (if you want more of a back and forth with images, you can look at joining our Patreon at www.patreon.com/SmartIrrigation/), but generally you want to have any pump wired into the "MV" or "Master Valve" or "P" or "Pump" terminal on the controller, and then also make sure that the master valve or pump option is turned on in the controllers settings. Hope this helps!

@@SmartIrrigation1 thank you so much for your time and effort. I posted the same inquiries on another TH-cam and they suggested something for me and it worked . Thank you very much again

Glad you liked it!!!

You are most welcome!

The right stop is adjusted by pressing down on the beige ring (2:40 in the video), where we adjust from 90 degrees to 180 degrees, then down to 0 degrees, then back up again. The distance is adjusted by the black side ring that is below the colored top ring (3:25 in the video). If you are using rotary nozzles that do no have that black side ring to adjust the distance, you would have Gen 1 rotary nozzles, which adjust differently. And remember, the left stop does not get adjusted, you need to set that by ratcheting the riser stem of the spray body itself, as shown in 1:37 in the video.

Yes, you are correct, that the circled raindrops are off and the regular raindrops are on. Hopefully that helps and happy watering!

Thanks for the support! We're glad our video was helpful!

You're very welcome and thanks for the kind words!

They usally have a back up battery that keeps the time during power outages but if that dies that issue will occur. Some models you can change the back up battery (3v button cell in the x-core, or a 9v in the pro-C), although some of the newer controllers like the X2, unfortunately, have it permently attached to the circuit board and when it's dead it is very hard to change. A external power bank could be a solution if the controller is indoor.

Glad it helped! Thanks!

Certainly! And thanks for the offer. Currently the best way to get involved is through our patreon and the contact options through there!

I'm really glad this helped! Thanks for letting us know!

I'm glad you enjoyed this! We are 100% going to do a video on the 3500 rotors this season! Thanks for the suggestion!

😅 Very glad our videos helped you out! But remember to show some love to your local sprinkler guys; there are some things that not even we can fix over a video 😂

Wow thanks for the kind words, I'm very glad it helped out! We're definitely hoping to put some more advanced programming videos together this season! You can subscribe to get a notification when we post something new as well! If you're hoping for something sooner (its always surprising to me how long it takes to make a polished video haha) you can also join our patreon if you would like a personalized response helping you out with this sooner. Have a great spring!

Glad it was helpful! Your welcome!

You are most welcome! I am glad our video helped! But remember the tip in the video: its always best to pick a spray nozzle of the correct distance since turning the spray down more than a few feet really messes up its watering efficiency. So if you need to turn your 15van down to 12 feet or less, its probably best to switch out the nozzle with a smaller one. Happy watering!

@@SmartIrrigation1 - Yes! Definitely noted. I measured the distance, and the sprinkler only needs to reach 12.5 feet in that area before hitting the bushes. Then I noticed that a 15ft half-circle was also spraying into the bushes at its farthest left corner. I reduced both of them and all seems to be much better! Hopefully my pittisporum bushes will get relief. I can increase the throw distance once we get to summer and the Texas heat scorches the bushes a bit too much. I'm just glad I know how to do it thanks to your video.

I'm glad! Take care and keep us posted!

Unfortunately a 4-station controller can only run 4 separate zones (unless your controller is modular, but yours isn't based on the description). So to add a zone you would need to get a 6-station controller. Some people wire 2 different valve wires into the same zone on the controller, but residential-grade controllers aren't made to run 2 valves at one and you can run into electrical issues that way. There are other after market ways of splitting zones, but none leave you with the ability to control them separately from your current controller.

Typically yes, you can, as long as the spray body has a removable nozzle and the same threads. If your spray bodies are rainbird 1800s, then you definitely can. Just be careful about watering rates because RVAN nozzles water slower than the old spray heads. Check out our "watering times" article website at www.smartirrigation.com for more information on precipitation rates!

Haha, thanks and I'm glad you'll now be prepared for the adjustments once the water comes on!

You're welcome!

You may turn it either way which is good if you turn it to far one dirction.

Very glad to hear this was helpful!

Thanks! Glad it helped!!

The horizonatl dashes are the seasonal adjust, most likely , and 10 of them would be normal for full watering of your selected run time as for the "Off" that indicates the controller is OFF . It is hard to diagnose the issue without being there in person but the controller itself may have issues. Yes the time of day would be normal. How old is your controller?

Hi, you can certainly change out the fixed-pattern quarter spray nozzle to a different fixed-pattern (or adjustable patter). As per the parts of the spray shown at 1:27 in our video, just unscrew (counterclockwise) the old spray nozzle from the riser/stem, and while still holding up the riser/stem screw on (clockwise) the new spray nozzle

We plan on doing a more advanced features video when the funding becomes available. Please consider supporting or channel. As for now it is as simple as putting in the 1st program A but you choose program B or C first. The controller will read all the commands in all programs and run them.

Ah yes, this is something that can happen by accident. The easiest way to fix this is to see if you can just put the nozzle in the open hole, press it down, and see if you can screw it is as many turns (clockwise) as you can, and then use your fingers to lift it up (hoping it threaded enough) to finish screwing it the rest. I tried typing out other, more complicated ways, but it just didn't work as a comment. It might be something we can make a video for in the future (or, if you join our patreon to support us and we do have a tier where was can provide a personalize trouble shooting video for you!). Hopefully that helps

I put my finger over the hole so the water pressure made it pop back up. Took some patience but it eventually popped up enough i could pull the rest out by hand.

@@shanemb3 This is the way 🥷
