Whisperer shows different data on hourly vs daily humidity

Panos Charalambopoulos
Updated at 2021-05-03 07:40:53 UTC 

My whisperer shows 99% humidity stuck in one zone in the hourly and dashboard views. The weekly daily monthly views all show progressively dropping humidity. Which one is correct and how do I possibly reset this ? Also do my watering schedules get affected by the hourly or the daily humidity ?  My other whisperer shows consistent data between hourly and other views.

Hi

I have recently bought  a whisper to complement my Netro watering system. It was bought from Amazon, but showed  no signs of life after following the instructions. I have left in the garden presuming it was flat. After a few day the unit is still showing a red light suggesting the battery is still not charged . Is the unit faulty?

Hello everyone,

Checking with the Netro app, I see that my Sprite has firmware version 2.2.0, while I think I read in the forum that there is version 2.5.3.
How can I force the update?

Thanks

Pixie displays Soil Moisture reading without any sensor

Michael Host
Updated at 2021-05-11 03:07:21 UTC 
Hi.  My Pixie shows a Soil Moisture reading that changes over time, but it doesn’t have a Whisperer connected to it.  It seems to influence the watering frequency.  When I look at the watering schedule, it’s supposed to water every nine days, but instead it’s watering every three days.  Is this normal?

I have a weather station that is connected to WU. I have linked the station on the app, but it doesn’t seem to use actual rainfall. It only uses the forecast weather. 

Is there anyway to change this so the actual rainfall is used?

I just installed the unit, set up the program properly? And try it out all the zones. All I wanted to do was test them to make sure they were working. But how do I turn off the water if I just want to test it for a minute?

Whisperer connexion

Just received your goods. Had no problem connecting the Spark unit but cannot connect the whisperer.

When reaching the Wifi template it is stuck to the Netro_PLS_xxx and cannot move to MyhomeWifi.

Of course have no access to Netro..... and in any case do not have the password.

The installation manual says it will connect to the router. Unhappily looking to the router I see clearly the Spark but nothing else

"MQTT(port 1883) is blocked by the router"

Updated at 2021-05-19 16:45:52 UTC 

Looking at the about screen on the app (on my phone), I click on the "Check Server Status" and I get the following message:

"MQTT(port 1883) is blocked by the router"


This device is on a separate IoT network that has full, unrestricted outbound access to the Internet. What could be causing this? 


Edit:

The app on my tablet shows:

Server Status:    OK

Response time:  0.3 s


Is something being blocked on my phone?

bad wireless?

Hello,

I'm including a screen shot of the Netro app controlling a Sprite 12 in my home. The Sprite has very good wi-fi access. I understand from a support comment what the icons mean:

 The exclamation mark means the cloud server did not receive the confirmation from the device. There are two possible causes: 

1. the device is not powered up when it was supposed to be powered up to run that schedule. Therefore, the corresponding zone is not watered (what is why we use the exclamation to alert users) 

2. the schedule run fine but it was during a temporary network outage or exception so that the confirmation cannot be delivered to the server. Wireless connection can be unstable for a short peroid time so it is not uncommon to have a glitch in the communication. 


This is happening a lot (I'm getting more warnings than checkmarks) and I believe it's adding to the water usage. If this is a wireless connection issue (which I SERIOUSLY doubt) wouldn't the Sprite store the result and upload it the next time it has a cloud connection?  It seems that every time I get the schedule warning, the Smart Zone systems adds additional watering times to the schedule. There is nothing I can do to increase the wi-fi access at this location as it's already very close to the access point. Please let me know what can be done.

Tony
