Rain Delay at any time, decrease Rain Delay setting to 0 days.

Water Budget

The Water Budget feature enables the run time of all stations,
assigned to a specific Program, to be simultaneously adjusted up or
down by percentage . From the baseline of 100%, run times can be
reduced to 0% (Off) or increased up to 200% .
To reduce the possibility of over-watering when selecting a Water
Budget value above 100%, the adjusted run time is automatically cut
in half, and the watering cycle run twice . For example, adjusting to
200% would first increase a 20-minute station run time to 40 min-
utes, then split the time in half and run two watering cycles back-to-
back with 20 minutes during each cycle .
All zone run times are retained in the timer memory and returned to
their set value when the season adjust is reset to 100% . The only
time a station run time will appear changed is during operation .
