Manual Operation at the Controller Panel

Manual operation can be initiated from the OptiFlow controller panel. You will need to unlock the controller, placing it into maintenance mode. OptiFlow controllers can be unlocked at anytime-either during the irrigation window or outside the irrigation window.

Note

If you are doing manual runs within the water window, you may experience a drop in water pressure.
