open field drip irrigation

[savvas]

Hello

I want to irrigate a field with drip irrigation.
The water came from a well with electric pump.
I have 3 solenoid valves for three station.
I want the program run the pump for 60 hours in total.
With 24 hours in each valve.
For example in Monday 12:00 start the pump with 1 valve open for 24 hours
In Tuesday without close the pump open valve 2 in 12:00 for 24 hours
In Wednesday 12:00 open the valve 3 for 24:00
Then close the pump.
After 144 hours or five days from the beginning of the first program ,run this program again.
and in each station 5hours before finish open a second pump (fertigation) for 1 hour.
Are this config possible with opensprinkler? for that long time irrigation?
Sorry for my English.

Thank you.
Savvas

I think the runtime for one task is limited to 16 hours. But you can easy setup 2 task with 12h runtime.

Start the frist task with 12h at 12:00 and the secound on 24:00. Done

The repeat every 5 days might be tricky, but other than that everything you want to do is possible.

To clarify do you want valve 1 to run Monday, then Saturday, then Thursday? Or run valve 1 every Monday, as in 5 days after valve 3 completes on Wednesday?

Option 2 would be easy to accomplish, option one a bit more difficult. I just picked random days of the week for the program to run, if you want different days it wouldn’t change anything.

Totally forgot about interval programs, sorry david was right just set 2 back to back run times and you’re set. Sorry if I mislead you at all.
