The CYCLE & SOAK feature is used to control runoff and puddles when soil or slope cannot absorb all irrigation at once. The CYCLE should be set for the maximum time the station can run at once before runoff occurs. The SOAK should be set for the minimum time the station must wait before applying another cycle. The controller will water other stations during the SOAK period. For this reason, CYCLE & SOAK generally does not extend the overall watering time significantly. The copy and paste shortcuts allow quick duplication of these settings to stations with similar characteristics.
