Netro Spark problem

Russ McEvoy

Topic: General

This morning my 16 zone Spark unit was showing a red LED.

The app said it was online but when I tried to manually water a zone, it just said "connecting" for the duration with nothing happening outside.

Our wifi was running as normal and the room with the controller in had a good signal.

Unplugging and plugging back in solved the problem but it doesn't leave me with much confidence of the unit if it's going to do this at a critical time of year without being noticed.

Is there a reliability issue with the latest firmware?

New Whispere

Have a whisperer working fine.

As the battery of my second one could not be charged (even by cable) bought a new one.

The new whisperer is blinking white, the phone, the router and the new whisperer are within 3ft of each other.

Nothing happens on the appli, see only the existing whisperer not the new one.

What should I do ?

Request for Advice on Improving Water Pressure for Netro Pixie Irrigation Timer

Andrea DS
Updated at 2025-04-22 12:33:21 UTC 

Hello,

I would like to ask for advice on how to improve the water pressure for my Netro Pixie irrigation timer.

Here are the details of my setup:

  • The water is stored in a cistern with a capacity of one cubic meter (1 meter x 1 meter x 1 meter), equivalent to 1,000 liters.
  • The Netro Pixie smart timer is installed three meters below the tap of the cistern.
  • When the timer opens, only a small amount of water flows out.

How can I improve the water output and quantity? Are there any adjustments or solutions you would recommend?

Thank you very much for your help!

Why isn’t the Pixie off by default?

Matt
Updated at 2025-04-08 16:25:11 UTC 

Hi,

Just got a Pixie for my balcony drip system (used to have a Gardena un-smart controller). As soon as I installed it, water was running through it! Why is not off by default and why isn’t there a simple start/stop button on the app (in case of emergency)? I don’t want my neighbors underneath complaining it’s dripping water all over the place because of an issue with the smart watering system that couldn’t be easily stopped!

Water transfer during rain

mark spencer
Updated at 2025-03-12 02:34:42 UTC 

Assumption is that rain events need to prevent / skip watering.


I have one requirement that is the opposite where if it has rained more than 5mm, i want to use my watering system to pump water for about 15 minutes from my 100,000 litre water tank to a 12,000 litre holding tank that I use for gravity fed gardens. 


Is there a way?

API Error 4 - even with the example Device key

W4MSolutions
Updated at 2025-01-23 17:32:49 UTC 

We are using your API example, where ABCDEFG is the device key.
Using this example, we're getting the following error returned: {"status":"ERROR","meta":{"time":"2025-01-23T10:15:30","tid":"1737627330_uXNP","version":"1.0","token_limit":2000,"token_remaining":1993,"last_active":"2025-01-23T10:15:30","token_reset":"2025-01-24T00:00:00"},"errors":[{"code":4,"message":"Invalid sensor","params":{}}]}, 


It is the same when we use the actual device keys for our Sprite and Whisperers 2.


Could you please help understanding why we're getting the error number 4 "invalid sensor"?

The door came off my spark 8 unit.  This made the electronics tape disengage from the base. How do I reattach that tape back into the slot.  I tried by hand but it seems impossible without detaching the motherboard and making more problems

Greenhouse

Topic: General

One of our sectors runs inside a greenhouse now. Apart from soil type and sprinkler head type, does anyone have advice how to optimise sector settings for this situation? I feel the influence of sun and normal outdoor temperature is different, and rain is completely absent in this sector. 


May I suggest to add some sector setting that it is inside a greenhouse?


Thanks

Netro Whisperer gen2 4 zones

Luca Gennuso
Updated at 2025-03-25 22:22:40 UTC 
Hello, please take in consideration to extend the possibility to link the whisperer up to 4 zones at least. I have 4 zones enabled on my netro sprite and the smart zones enabled and linked with the whisperer only on 3 of them. How can I setup all the 4 zones to follow the same smart program? Now the 4th zone (not linked with the whisperer) can follow only a manual program or a smart zone which is different from the other 3. I would like to water the garden with all the zone at the same time.
Thank you
