In the Cyber-Rain software, click the Advanced Settings tab. Under the Daily Adjustment Settings section, adjust the slider under “Rain” to change
the threshold that a Rain Hold is triggered. This setting allows the user to set the minimum forecast % chance of precipitation which triggers a Rain
Hold and not irrigate for 24 hours. For example, if the value is set to 70%, the controller will only trigger a Rain Hold if a 71-100% chance of rain is
forecast. The default value of this setting is 55%. Raising the value means that fewer Rain Holds will be triggered, which also increases the chance of
Cyber-Rain watering during rain. Reducing the value reduces the likelihood that Cyber-Rain will irrigate during the rain.
A rain sensor may also be added to the system for increased accuracy. When rain is detected by the sensor, the controller will stop irrigating for a determined
length of time. For more on rain sensors see the User Manual.

Cyber-Rain checks the weather and automatically adjusts watering times. The watering minutes on the Schedule tab is your baseline schedule and is the length
of time Cyber-Rain waters during the hottest times of the year.
The baseline schedule is typically set by the Smart Scheduling Wizard. The Wizard chooses optimal run-times for the hottest times of the year for the landscape
and climate conditions in your area during the setup process. Each day, Cyber-Rain checks the weather and adjusts the baseline schedule based on the
forecasted temperature, humidity and rainfall. In the example below a total savings result in 100% due to weather adjustments. (Note: The only time Cyber-Rain
will irrigate for the full baseline schedule is during the hottest months of the year. During colder and more humid months, sprinkling times will be less.)
