@core_c I went ahead and comment out the few lines of code you suggested and now the sketch is working and displaying correctly. Of course I want to understand what is going on and why it works without these lines. Thanks for the help and I hope to learn from all the experience members on this forum.

@core_c thanks for the starting point. I will give your advice a try and report back.
@core_c I'm brand new to this and I enjoy doing research to solve problems. I looked at the items you described but not understanding what I need to fix, and why this code has worked for others but not for me. It helps me to understand the why. For instence you said some of the variables haven't been initialized. What causes this? So I can look for the problem. Thanks for the information.
@gohan I made changes to the sketch as per the video. I changed the # of zones. I posted the sample because I wasn't at my computer. But I can post mine if that would help?

I have completed the project and have been bench testing it with My Vera. I can activate the zones via the Vera or from the push button on the irrigation controller. But the display isn't correct. Doesn't show the time, date, last water date, time left, etc just shows valve data and seq thru the #107, 207,307,407,507. I have it setup for 5 valves. Other wise the it works.
