1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing DIG’s BTC-ASV Single Station Battery
Operated Timer. This manual describes how to get the BTC-ASV series
timer up and running quickly. After reading this manual and becoming
familiar with the basic functionality of the timer, use the manual as a
reference for less common tasks in the future.
2. ABOUT THE BTC-ASV BATTERY OPERATED TIMER
The BTC-ASV series irrigation timer employs the latest in Bluetooth®
technology using the free DIG BTT app for Android™ or iPhone®. The
BTC-ASV is available as a single station battery operated timer and is
powered by two AA batteries that can last up to one year using name
brand alkaline batteries. The timer is enclosed in a compact, waterproof
housing to protect it from degradation.
3. INSTALLING THE BATTERIES
1. Open the battery compartment cap
by turning it counterclockwise.
2. Install two fresh, brand name, AA
alkaline batteries (not included)
and note the proper direction of the
positive and negative orientation on
the underside of the timer.
3. Insert and screw the battery
cap clockwise. Make sure to
securely tighten the cover rmly
by hand only.
The timer will now appear on
the smartphone app and is ready to
be connected to and programmed.

5. ANTI-SIPHON VALVE INSTALLATION
The BTC-ASV can be installed directly to PVC pipe with two PVC male
adapters (not included). Inlet 3⁄4 in. FNPT, outlet 3⁄4 in. FNPT.
Rated operating pressure: 10 to 125 PSI
Recommended operating pressure: 10 to 80 PSI
NOTE: The BTC-ASV must be installed at least 6 in. higher than the
highest sprinkler head on the system or back-drainage may occur.
Additional control valves must not be installed downstream of the
anti-siphon valve. The valve must not be operated continuously for
more than 12 hours in any 24-hour period. Consult local codes for
specic details.
1. Flush main line until water runs clear before installation.
2. Shut off main water supply.
3. Install the anti-siphon valve directly to PVC pipe using 3⁄4 in. PVC
male adapters (Figure 5a and 5b) or use 3/4 in. schedule 80 nipple.
The arrow on valve body indicates direction of water ow.
NOTE: Wrap all ttings with Teon tape. Do not use pipe cement on
the valve as this will damage the valve and void the warranty. Make
sure when wrapping ttings with Teon tape that no excess gets into
the internal assembly. Tighten the ttings with a wrench, but do not
over tighten.
4. Turn the main water supply on and pressurize the system.
5. To test the BTC-ASV, press the button on the unit. A click will be
heard, indicating the valve is open. Check that the system is
operating correctly and press the button again to turn it off.
A second click will be heard indicating that the valve closed.
6. The unit is now ready to be programmed.
