The document describes the features and characteristics of RC-4C, RC-7C, RC-1260C, and RC-7A controllers. It includes instructions on how to operate the controllers, such as time adjustment, scheduling, and station selection.
The RC-4C, RC-7C, RC-1260C, and RC-7A are Rain Bird controllers. The manual describes the hour dial with 23 cycle start pins, the day dial with 14 scheduling pins, the station selector/indicator dial, station time control knobs, the operational mode switch, the circuit breaker reset button, and the current station, time, and day indicators.
It also covers wall mounting, valve output wiring, master valve wiring, main power wiring, electrical system checkout, setting the controller clock, and scheduling automatic operation.
| Station timing range | 3 to 60 minutes (6 to 60 minutes on RC-1260C) |
|---|---|
| Station valve transformer output | 26.5 VAC |
| Maximum solenoid valves per station output | Four Rain Bird 2-watt solenoid valves when the Master Valve circuit is not used |
| Hour dial scheduling pins | 23 cycle start pins |
| Day dial scheduling pins | 14 scheduling pins |
| Main power input | 120 VAC |
Station timing is adjustable from 3 to 60 minutes, or 6 to 60 minutes on the RC-1260C.
A maximum of four Rain Bird 2-watt solenoid valves may be connected to each station output lead when the Master Valve circuit is not used.
Put the MODE switch in the OFF position. This stops controller output to the valves without interrupting the clock.
Tape the end of the black Master Valve lead to prevent shorting.
