Dear customer,


Yes you can set up programs on the controller using hotspot. Sprite will continue to execute the next 32 pre-loaded schedules if the Wi-Fi connection is lost, for example, the router or the internet service is down.


Thanks,

Dear customer,


May I inquire if this "5 seconds on, 1 min off" pattern occurs consistently during watering, or is it an occasional issue? Also, could you please let us know when this behavior started? Please press and hold the reset button for 8 seconds to do a hard reset to reset the unit to see if it works.


1.Power off the device(unplug the power adapter)
2.Wait for 2 seconds, replug the power back in
3.Wait for 3 minutes for the device to start up
4.Press and hold the reset button for 8 seconds to do a hard reset
5.Wait for 3 minutes. This should set the light to slow blinking.


Thanks,

Netro Support




Sprite vs Spark - Backup and Faulty Valve Detection

Dear customer,


For the backup feature, when the device is online, netro will pull and save normal schedules. When the device is offline, it will continue to execute the normal schedules that was pulled down previously. After the normal schedules are all executed, it will generate a backup program if the backup program is saved.

The backup feature can continue to operate until the internet is restored, executing the stored schedules locally. The backup is designed to prevent interruptions in watering, ensuring the soil remains adequately moist after completing the fixed-duration watering at a specific time each day.


The faulty valve detection relies on monitoring the voltage and current of the water valve's operational state. As for measuring the volume of water consumed, it's a consideration for future developments.


If you have any further concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

Dear customer,


Could you confirm if your water valve and your power adapter is 24VAC? Not DC.

When that zone is watering and you cannot stop it with your Netro app, please unplug the power adapter of Netro sprite, see if the zone is still watering.  If unplug the power adapter, the zone is still watering, this zone valve need to be checked. 


Thanks,

Data records

Updated at 2024-02-04 06:25:55 UTC

Dear customer,


Netro already has an open API interface that allows users to retrieve one year of data from the sensor. Here is an example: 

netrohome:https://api.netrohome.com/npa/v1/sensor_data.json?key=Your Sensor Serial Number&start_date='2023-01-01'&end_date='2024-03-01'

Please replace the key with the serial number of your sensor. We provide data in JSON format, which can be easily exported to a file using various software available online. Uploading data through the app might occupy space on your phone.


If you have any further concerns or questions, please feel free to reach out to us at any time.


Thanks,

Wency

Updated at 2024-01-10 06:20:05 UTC

Dear customer,


You will need to adjust the "Moisture to Add Watering" setting to a value below 45%, for example, 25%. Once this is done, you'll be able to select a percentage below 50% from the "Moisture to Skip Watering" options.

Dear customer,

Thanks for reporting and we are looking into it. One Pixie can only assign one sensor. If you want to add a standalone sensor again after adding it once, you need to switch the group to the plant sensor to add it again.

Dear customer,


May I inquire if you intend to use it inside a greenhouse? If so, to skip the impact of rainfall on watering, we can internally configure the Indoor mode for you. Alternatively, if frequent watering is preferred, you can choose the Frequent mode in smart zone settings.
