Data out of the API

Jens Wymeersch
Updated at 2021-08-01 13:24:46 UTC 

Dear Netro,


Although you have provided a lot of data via the api. And for all of you who wanted to get data out to your smart hub, it's there for the grabs ! 

ONE DOWNSIDE, i would have expected the battery data of the plant sensor to be provided for the start and potentially the state of the sensor. Although that you could potentially use the last update, to deduct this. When can we expect this to get updated ?

Problemas con la conexión Wifi

Paco Gómez
Updated at 2021-08-01 05:26:03 UTC 

Buenos días hace una semana que instalé Netro 12  estaciones

He perdido la señal wifi en tres ocasiones. He observado que para que vuelva a estar en línea debo desconectar de la corriente eléctrica y volver a conectar el programador,. Me gustaría saber si esta es la manera normal de proceder.

Por otro lado también he observado que si esta fuera de Línea, no riega el jardín lo  que  supone  un problema, pues el programador no lo tengo en mi vivienda habitual.

De que manera puedo resolver estos dos problemas.

Un saludo

Netro and Home Assistant

Jens Wymeersch
Updated at 2021-07-28 18:18:16 UTC 

Although that I'm still hoping Netro will start understanding their appliance/app is only a smart part of a smart home ecosystem and start integrating with Home Assistant. Even huge vendors like Tuya, have understood that this is essential for most Home Automation Enthusiast. 

For the time being, some folks have used the API to get some data to home assistant https://community.home-assistant.io/t/netro-integration/51012/13


I believe a lot of us are happy with the appliance, but aren't looking at it often enough. Result in my case at least that my whisperer was out for more than a month. This could have been avoided if we had an integration to Home Assistant who would have alerted me.

So please Netro, do the extra mile !

Strange Whisperer Acrtivity

Hi,


I have a whisperer that monitors zones 1, 2, and 3.  Zone 1 is the primary zone.  Because whisperer detected a moisture level that was too low it did an additional watering of 10 minutes.  The strange thing about it is that it only watered zone 1 for the additional 10 minutes.  Why didn't it water zone 2 and 3 when they have the exact same conditions and moisture levels.  I had to go in and do a manual run to even out zones 2 and 3 with zone 1.  


Also in the beta software when you try to switch from basic to advance watering or choose a different watering algorithm you get an error message.

For some reason my controller goes offline every once in a while. It messed things up because it shows all of my zones are underwatered when I’m reality they have been watered. Is there a way to switch it from one with network to a different one that is closer. I can’t seem to find how to update the wireless network for the controller

Do I need wifi for it to continue to water on schedule?

BaiPhillips

Hi, I’m moving and leaving our Netro system at our old house. I just need to know if it will continue to water when I cancel the internet service for that house?

I just find it alittle ridiculous to pay an internet bill for only the sprinkler system to run.

I signed up to be a beta tester but have never received any information or a beta version of the app to test out. Anyone actually beta testing anything?  Maybe I just wasn’t chosen to participate.

I recreantly purchased the netro controller and several times it has gone offline with having to unplug and restart. This seems to only work for a day and then goes offline again. I have rebooted my rooter which is on the same floor as the netro. Any help would be great.

Smart zone predictions?

Sid Smith
Updated at 2021-06-17 12:12:33 UTC 

I am still trying to figure out the rain prediction algorithm. 

I had 1 set of zones schedule to eater at 5 am on the 17th.

This was overridden by the program anticipating rain at 3am on the 18th (according to forcast). Why does it look so far ahead? Does it take into account the current moisture reading? There is an 85° full sun day between these events.

Why such erratic scheduling when using smart watering?

ducati1198804
Updated at 2021-06-16 14:03:50 UTC 
Why does the Spark controller schedule watering zones so erratically?  I have 7 zones and if it decides that all 7 zones need to be watered on the same day, why wouldn’t it just water in order 1-7.  Instead it might water 1,2,4,7,3,5,6,7?.  Or it might water zone 1-2 on one day, 4,5,6,3 the next day, and then 7,7 the next day.  

Why does it want to water at least one or two zones per day for 4-5 days in a row instead 5-7 zones per day and turn on the system two days in a row?  

Seems like it would place uneccersary wear on valves and other system parts.
