ABSTRACT:
The activation and deactivation of a plurality of irrigation valves in accordance with instructions programmed into a programmable irrigation valve controller can be overridden by signals received by the controller from a remote control unit or a rain delay input. This allows remote control of sprinklers from the area being watered rather than at the location of the controller. This allows sprinkler repairs, modifications to watering patterns, and turning off and back on of sprinklers such as to access a portion of the irrigated area to be done without running back and forth to the controller. It also allows easy delay of watering after a rain. A construction of a programmable controller apparatus allows covering of wires extending from the apparatus and funneling of such wires into a conduit.
