... the zones responded to the timer.
No alarm or anyother err message appeared on the screen. We did have a heavy rain the day before and was wondering if the rain sensor may be the reason. Does anyone have any ideas
Irrigation - wanted to test my valves using the timer. I had just moved a couple of rotors. None of?

There are two ways to connect rain sensors.
Open back panel of controller, so you see wires connected to controller. There should be a sensor port. It will say "sensor" or "rs". Are there wires in these ports? Your sensor could also be installed directly into common wire. Look around your house for a rain sensor. It should be on house or mounted close to foundation of house. Your wires could also have been cut. This will completely shut off irrigation.
If you try when there has been no rain and it doesn't start, make sure your shut off valve is open. That will be close to the water meter. Make sure you only have one meter.
Apologies. There are so many minor things that could be the issue. Check the things I have listed and reply back. Maybe I can lead you in a better direction once you have ruled out some of the things I have listed.
