17 Zones with a 16 clock

I have a 17 zone system, and Rachio only offers a 16 zone clock. Our system is over-engineered, meaning zone 1 and 2 over-water one another… Can I just “gang” the wires for zone 1 and 2 to one zone, and solve my problem? Thanks in advance!

@steve1125 - yes you can. If you have a master valve or a pump start relay and have the reduce water hammer option on, you may run into current limits. Try it and see. No harm if you run into the current limits, the Rachio will just restart.

If you use Flex Daily, then you will have to configure that zone for the most water needy zone.
