Solar-powered programmer operating without batteries and controllable exclusively via smartphone through the myClaber app using Bluetooth® technology.
To start using the product, the myClaber app must be installed on your smartphone. The myClaber app is available on Google Play® and the App Store®.
During communication between the app and the programmer, stay within a radius of 10 m from the device.
Open the myClaber app. Please note that the operations will require the use of Bluetooth® technology. Make sure it is enabled on your smartphone.
From the main screen of the app, press the “+” button to add a programmer.
Enter the numeric code (PIN) or scan the QR code.
These details are shown on the back of the control module: detach it from the body of the programmer to access them.
Open the myClaber app. Please note that the operations will require the use of Bluetooth® technology. Make sure it is enabled on your smartphone.
On the main page of the app, the programmer’s card will appear.
Note: the myClaber app can manage up to 8 programmers and 8 rain sensors.
The programmer will be able to irrigate only if it is sufficiently charged.
To ensure proper charging before use, check the energy level icon.
If the energy level icon is grey, place the programmer with the photovoltaic panel exposed to direct sunlight.
The control module can be detached from the programmer and placed alone in direct sunlight.
Select the programmer tab in the app.
Information will be provided on the charging status and the remaining time to completion (from 15 to 90 minutes depending on light intensity).
Until the FIRST OR NEW START-UP is completed, it will not be possible to set any irrigation.
Once charging is complete, if it had been detached, reconnect the control module. The programmer can then be used.
Once charging is complete, if it had been detached, reconnect the control module. The programmer can then be used.
Install the programmer on a domestic tap. Make sure the tap has a 3/4" male threaded outlet (use an adapter if necessary).
Screw the 3/4" female coupling ring onto the tap. Warning: tighten the ring by hand only; do not use pliers or other tools.
Connect the irrigation line to the programmer outlet using a QuickClick System fitting or a 3/4" threaded fitting.
Do not install the programmer in valve boxes, below ground level or inside buildings. Use mains water or make sure it is filtered. Do not use the programmer with chemicals or liquids other than water. Do not operate the programmer at pressures below 0.5 bar (7.3 psi) or above 10 bar (145 psi).
Once the programmer has been installed, make sure that the photovoltaic panel faces the open area from which it receives the greatest amount of light during the day, so as to ensure correct charging.
Remember to open the tap and close the programmer cover.
You can connect the programmer to a Rain Sensor BT; the sensor automatically suspends the start of irrigation in case of rain.

At the end of the season, before the arrival of winter frost, disconnect the programmer from the tap.
Store it in an enclosed, dry place where the temperature does not fall below 3°C.
The programmer can be used with the Claber Rain Sensor Bluetooth® (code 90844).
The Rain Sensor communicates its status to the programmer: if the container is full (rainfall of at least 5 mm), irrigation will not start and any irrigation in progress will stop within 1 minute. Manual valve opening, both via button and app, remains enabled even when the Rain Sensor is active.
Access the battery compartment.
Unlock and remove the bottom cover using the side latch.
Use only two new, non-rechargeable 1.5V AA (LR6) alkaline batteries.
When the LED flashes red, the batteries are running low: replace them as soon as possible.
Dispose of exhausted batteries in the appropriate recycling containers.
It is recommended to remove the batteries during long periods of inactivity of the Rain Sensor BT.
Access the battery compartment and locate the label with information on the back.
Enter the numeric code (PIN) or scan the QR code on the label.
The Rain Sensor BT card will appear on the main page of the app.
For installation, ensure that the chosen position allows the rain sensor to communicate with all devices to be controlled; each Rain Sensor can communicate with up to 8 programmers.
Maximum range is 10 m without obstacles (see Rain Sensor instruction sheet).
If a single sensor cannot cover all programmers, installing more than one is recommended.
Start the scan to search for programmers available near the Rain Sensor.
Check that the Bluetooth® signal quality is sufficient (min. 2 bars).
Pair the Rain Sensor with one or more programmers installed in the app.
After pairing the programmer, it is necessary to save the changes.
The rain sensor status can be viewed by selecting the programmer card in the app.
The rain sensor status can be displayed in the top bar with the umbrella icon.
The sensor communicates its status to the programmer every minute.
A grey umbrella symbol means the rain sensor is empty and automatic irrigation will proceed as programmed.
A blue umbrella symbol means the sensor is full (rainfall of at least 5 mm/m²) and it sends a stop signal to all associated programmers via the myClaber App.
When the water evaporates, the Rain Sensor will send a signal to resume irrigation.
