The TBD controller communicates with the smartphone through the app GARDEN WIZ using Bluetooth 4.0 technology, available on the latest devices on the market (with iOS system - from iPhone 4S and later - or with Android system - from Samsung S3 and similar). Make sure that your device is compatible with the Bluetooth 4.0 or later systems.

IP68 waterproof rating (totally submersible)
Controls latching solenoids Cable (red) for two-wire mechanical rain sensor connection
Programming modes:
- By Program A, B and C (with 4 start times with weekly/monthly/by-cycle frequency)
- By Valve (fixed irrigation duration with 4 daily start times)
- By Valve Start Time (4 start times with independent watering durations)
- Watering duration from 1 min to 23 hours 59 min
- Malfunction alarms
Unscrew the cap on the back of controller and install two AA type 1.5V batteries, taking care to follow the correct polarity.
NOTE: before closing the compartment, make sure the battery compartment is properly clean.
1. Cut off the quick couplings and strip around 15 mm of insulation from the ends of each cable.
2. Connect the black wires coming from each solenoid to the black cables coming from the controller. Secure all cable couplings with waterproof connectors.
3. Connect the red wires coming from each solenoid to the corresponding station wire (blue cable) coming from the controller. Station numbers are identified by the tag on the cable. Secure all cable couplings with waterproof connectors.
A mechanical rain sensor can be connected to the TBD. Its purpose is to pause the irrigation when the rain falls down.
1. Cut off the red cable approximately halfway of the ring.
2. Strip around 15 mm of insulation from the ends of each cable. Connect both ends of the red cable to each one of the two rain sensor wires.
3. Use waterproof connectors to make cable couplings
Note: TBD is compatible with all rain sensors that work with “normally closed” contact.

The App provides two different methods of irrigation programming. The first one is called ABC. This mode accepts 3 different programs, with 4 start times per program. Each valve will be set with its own duration. At the start time of the irrigation cycle, the controller will open the first solenoid valve for its duration set. The second valve will start operating after the first one will stop, and so on for the following valves.
The second program method is called BY VALVE. This mode permits you to program 4 different start times per valve, independently from the others.
The controller is able to identify system problems, and consequently stop the solenoid valves. Depending on level of Alarm. The alarms can be of two types:
WARNINGS: irrigation has been interrupted or suspended temporarily for some light issues
PROBLEMS: irrigation did not occur due to serious system malfunction. By clicking on the icons on the App screen, it will be possible to find out type and details of any warning or problem detected.
Note: To preview or clear alarm - Tap on the alarm Icon.
Note2: For irrigation programs - The alarm is shown next to the Program name
Do not expose the controller to freezing Store the device in a sheltered place during winter period It is recommended to replace both batteries at the beginning of irrigation season, paying attention on keeping the battery compartment clean before closing it.
