  I think your question was more related to just stopping the controller from triggering watering cycles during the Winter, assuming that you don't want to water in the Winter.  I don't water in the Winter either.  I've found the quick solution is doing a "snooze" for 300 days.  Then, I just cancel the snooze when I'm ready to start watering again.  If that truly was your question, hope this helps.  

  For the forum monitor, please put in a suggestion to have a "permanent hold" option for the snooze function so that you don't have to fool the controller into a long-term pause.

  I just went into the Settings->Restrictions tab then checked off the winter months I don't want the sprinkler to run.  This is a nice simple way to automatically allow the controller to go into a long term pause and leave with out any intervention on my part.  The only thing I need to do is make sure I turn the water back on at the back flow preventer before the end of the last month of restriction.
