If you are moving from a recent rev of the Arduino OpenSprinkler, it has a new feature that allows individual run times to be set within a single program. It is on the todo list for ospi but is not available yet. You can make a program for each zone which actually gives you more flexibility. For example you can more easily change all the settings for a zone and enable/disable individual zones on the Programs page of the native UI.
