Restriction means exactly..when not to water..but if I want specify the opposite?

Hello,


Using restrictions I discovered that I can only specify when NOT TO WATER but in my specific case I want to tell the system to water in between a certain time range.


Then I had to set up a restriction between 00:00 and START TIME

and add an other restriction between END TIME and 23:59


this was very tricky and not flexible.


It would be nice to have (in restriction page) a drop down menu to choose if specified timelapse is to water or not to water. 


Imagine if I want to specify the irrigation days and not the NOT IRRIGATED DAYS..could be very annoying.


I had to specify irrigation time range because I need solar power to irrigate and  I want to irrigate during most productive hours (I know that the best would be irrigate at early morning but also this is a money saving strategy). And probably I have to monthly move that range. 


Then please check if it s possible to upgrade it.


Thank you for your support

Tony..your answer is INCORRECT. Setting -> preferences -> programming set only a suggestion for the smart engine to try to irrigate inside that time range, but happens 90% the smart engine decide to irrigate also in differents times, outside that range. THen that option cannot force the system to irrigate inside that range. THen you need to use restrictions.
