I've read the manual and it does not mention anything about what I need to do.

I didn't see the turning off the cyclic setting in this video

Boom. Done.

From memory, so no promises...

Turn the dial to "run days".

Hit either the left arrow or the "-", until your day cycle is at 1.  Might have to hit that button once more to get to the days of the week to show.  From there you can pick which days of the week you want to water and which to turn off (shown with a circle with a cross though it).

I'd guess the minus arrow is your friend on this one.

If all else fails hit the reset button.

I have a RainBird ESP-TM2 controller. Does anyone know how to turn off the cyclic run day setting? It turned on somehow and I don't see and 9ption to turn it off.
