Is it possible to pause irrigation for a single zone while in automatic mode—for example, for ten minutes—so that the controller subsequently resumes watering without reducing the remaining irrigation time? This would be a very useful feature for situations where we need to pause irrigation for some reason but want it to restart automatically afterwards.

Hello,  
The IIC-800-WIFI’s automatic irrigation mode does not include a pause function—likely to prevent issues where other zones might fail to execute according to their scheduled start times. Consequently, in automatic irrigation mode, if a zone is turned off, its currently scheduled operation will be skipped.
