Option to Manually Run a designated Program with Alexa control

Louise Brinkman
Updated at 2023-08-10 05:52:23 UTC 
Have just installed the NetroHome Spark 16 station unit. All working, connected to wifi and Alexa.  Have written a Program called "A" to water zones 2-8 for 6 minutes, however, I do not want it to water according to a set time on any given day but when I choose to manually run the program  via voice through Alexa.  I've disabled smart watering on all my zones.  I've saved the program but Alexa does not support "open NetroHome and run program A"...how would I manually word it to Alexa to water zones 2 to 8 manually?  Or, how to save a "manual" program that I can run at whim via the app but preferably through Alexa when I choose to run it (without start times etc)...the app clearly allows a manual run but I don't want to run all 16 zones for certain minutes...just zones 2-8 for the same amount of time when I choose without commanding Alexa for individual zones or configuring through the app every single time....I bought the unit for voice control with Alexa, I don't want to fiddle with phone app each time. Please advise how to save a manual program without a regular start time that I can easily use with Alexa (I can write a custom command Alexa routine to run it).  Thank you in advance and looking forward to figuring this out.

How do I change the date format from American? In Australia we use the following format: DD/MM/YYYY. Shouldn't the app be set to read the default setting of the phone?

Using Bootlace ferrules.

Bob Howard
Updated at 2023-08-03 06:36:09 UTC 
I'd like to use bootlace ferrules for all the wiring to the sprite as shown in your installation video (power connection). I'm using 0.5mm² x 7 core cable and 0.5mm² bootlaces and the unit won't grip them. I've tried other sizes with the same result. What size ferrule is required?

Manual Run, 1 zone is not stopping

Atif Siddiqui
Updated at 2023-08-02 04:51:58 UTC 

Hi, I installed the Sprite Netro today. Did a manual test. 


All zones worked fine except one of the zones started running but is not stopping. App shows stopped but the water keep going. 


Any ideas? Is it the metro issue or sprinkler valves? I powered off the Netro but still the water keeps on going.

Need a big red button on the home page of the app that says stop all watering for today.

Brian Brun
Updated at 2023-08-02 01:14:30 UTC 
Once you have programs setup to do your watering, you hardly ever get into this app unless you need to stop watering, change the program, or test a zone with a broken/fixed head. My biggest complaint about this app is that when I need to stop watering for the day (for various reasons), I have to remember how to do that in the Netro app, and fumble through menu after menu to figure it out, because I do not use it every day. I just want to stop the dang watering for the day. There needs to be a button right on the first page that comes up to stop or suspend all watering schedules for the day. I told Moen if they put that in there app, I will switch in a heart beat. Giving you the opportunity to keep a customer and put into your app.

Allow manual run without needing to enable the system

Tim Quach
Updated at 2023-08-01 08:02:49 UTC 

Hi,


In Perth Australia, we disable reticulation in winter, sure to winter rains.


In some cases, I've needed manual water parts of the garden sure to warm weather and lack of rain.


In order to do so currently, I need to set the system to enabled,  perform a manual run, and then remember to disable the system again. Sometimes I forget to do the last bit.


Can we allow for manual run without needing to enable the system?

Netro Sprite 6 valve won’t stop

Alberto Casu
Updated at 2023-07-29 19:25:45 UTC 

I just replaced my sprinkler controller with a new Netro Sprite 6.

Using both a programmed or a manual start, all valves don’t stop unless I remove power to the Sprite.

During a program, where I planned the zones to run sequentially, the zones activate one after the other without stopping and causing the zones to loose pressure and be unable to complete.


On the FAQ, it says to remove power to stop the zone, which actually stop all the watering, but this it totally unusable to me.

I am using the European version with the provided power supplier. I am based in Italy.



Can you please help?

Thank you!

Netro - Stopped Working and won’t power up

John Loethen
Updated at 2023-07-25 14:04:38 UTC 

Been a Netro customer for a while and pretty handy. I have three different Netro controllers and my oldest one just stopped working and won’t power up… I have verified the power at the outlet and have changed out the power supply with another 24v power supply that I know works. Still the controller will not power up. 


Let me know if anyone else has suggestions. 


Thanks!

Pixie app shows checkmark for successful scheduled watering but valve didn't open and no watering took place

misterhoff
Updated at 2023-07-25 03:11:25 UTC 

My Pixie has been intermittent with meeting its watering schedules. I have a reliable wifi router and strong cellular service.

-Some days the app shows checkmark to confirm watering and yet no actual watering took place.

-Other times the app shows the yellow triangle with Exclamation mark and sometimes actual watering took place and other times it didn't water at all.

-On some occasions the actual watering starts a minute late and finishes on time.

Controller will not operate valves

Kyle Giacomini
Updated at 2023-07-24 00:54:03 UTC 
I cannot get the controller to turn on any valves. I have a netro spark 16 and I can't get the controller to open any valves. Programs, manual runs or manualy at the controller itself. Please advise. Do I need to reset or reboot something? Or is it a server related error.

ALGORITHM FLOW RATE

Javier NM
Updated at 2023-07-20 07:08:54 UTC 

Looking in the Personalized watering mode of Smart watering, I would ask what is the default water flow rate that Netro app uses to calculate watering. I did some tests and guess that it might be around 38 mm/h. Is that right? Having a domestic flow different could distort the data used by the algorithm and might recommend to use personalized settings instead of the default settings. Thank you.
