Timer Installation
Select a location
Choose a location near power and away
from direct sunlight, if possible. Make sure
to leave room for the timer door to open
completely.
This location should also have a good WiFi
signal. You can check this using a smart
phone. (Find a location that has a minimum
of two bars)
Note: If replacing a timer, it is helpful
to take a photo of the wires before you
remove them from the old timer.
Mount the timer
Install a screw (included) into the wall.
Use the expanding anchors (included) for
plaster, masonry or drywall installations.
Hang the timer on the installed screw using
the keyhole slot. Level the timer and use
the second screw in one of the preformed
mounting holes to secure the timer.

Timer Installation—Connecting to WiFi
Plug in your Orbit® B-hyve™ timer
Once your B-hyve™ timer is plugged into
the power source, it will automatically
look to pair with your smart device. In the
top left corner of the timer screen the
“Bluetooth” icon will flash with a graduated
blinking sequence. This indicates that your
timer is ready to pair with a smart device.
Connect to your Orbit® B-hyve™ timer
Open your B-hyve™ app, create an account
or login, and follow the step-by-step process
to add and set up your device. The B-hyve™
app will connect to your device and you will,
then, be guided to connect to your home
Wi-Fi network.
Connect to your Wi-Fi network
Select your network from the list and enter
the password for the network to connect
your timer to your Wi-Fi signal. When
connected, the Wi-Fi icon on the timer will
stop blinking and show solid lines, indicating
your signal strength.

Note: If you do not see your network name
in the list, tap the refresh button in the
app. If your network name still does not
appear, tap “Advanced” in the app and enter
your network name and password. This
device will only connect through . GHz
Wi-Fi networks. . GHz networks are not
supported and will not appear in your app.

Simple Controls
Programming the timer
You can set your timer up with the app. But,
if you don’t have Wi-Fi or just want to make
an adjustment while you are outside, you
can do it at the timer. Timer changes will be
reflected in the app, and app changes will
be reflected at the timer.
It allows the gardener who left their phone
inside to run a manual cycle, or adjust
programming as needed and keep dirty
hands away from the phone.
Note: The app has help screens and video
to assist you with Wi-Fi connections,
programming, smart watering and other
general questions you may have.
