I’m upgrading from my Netro Sprite to a Netro Spark. I have very complicated watering schedule and I have 12 zones already programmed and set. I prefer to not have to sit there and reprogram everything manually. Is there an option to backup and restore my water programs and zones?

I’m upgrading from my Netro Sprite to a Netro Spark. I have very complicated watering schedule and I have 12 zones already programmed and set. I prefer to not have to sit there and reprogram everything manually. Is there an option to backup and restore my water programs and zones?

Why is it when I hit manual run? There’s always a delay.

My zones 5-12 won’t work but my zones 1-4 are working fine .    Any ideas what to do ? 

Hello,

I've just been using a Netro Spark to water my garden. I have set up 3 zones. Two of these zones have a rotor head sprinkler. However, they don't cover the same area. One of them rotates over 90 degrees. The other rotates 180 degrees. So I think the rotor head that covers the 180 degrees needs to run double the time of the 90 degree one. How can I set this? I've set the sqm for each head, but smart irrigation used the same times for both.

Kind regards,

Sjors

Hi

Just bought a Spark and realized my home wifi sig doesn’t reach the location where it is installed. 

While I sort out how to increase the signal I wonder if there is a way to program the Spark to operate without Wifi 

Thanks 

Hi there,

I have a Netro Spark with firmware version 3.2.1. Firmware updates are done without user intervention or how can I perform a firmware update?

Thanks!

Hi there!

I live in Madrid, Spain and use AccuWeather as my weather provider, since NetroWeather does not provide a correct forecast for this area for some reason.

This week we have had heavy rain forecast so Netro will not activate the irrigation system for several days. The problem is that as the day goes by the forecast is changing and Netro's planning is not updated.

It has already been several days in which according to the initial forecast, it was supposed to rain and it did not, so I have had to launch manual irrigations.  

Is there any way to force the smart irrigation program to update according to the new weather forecast?

Thanks!

Regards,

My device is always offline unable to connect to the wifi. I have to reset it and then the connection works for a while.

There is a repeater  2 meters from it. The signal is strong.

Hi

Does Netro supply an equipment with 2 output

I need watering 2 different areas?

Thks

We just have 2 inches of rain.  I do know why it watering this morning.  Any ideas?

So happy with how this works. 

Everything works nicely but I noticed a weird issue: I was waiting to fine tune the dripping installation and when the app said Next watering in 1 minute, it was not. Kept saying 2 minutes, then 3, then 5... 

Finally it started some 20 minutes later than scheduled. And the zones were not matching with the real order. In my app it's zone 1, then 2, etc and the app was saying now watering zone 3, next 7, next 2 but surprisingly, the zones were being watered correctly.

Apart from that, it's working great. Thanks.

I have a Spark Controller and the unit is showing me a solid green light but the app is saying offline. I have rebooted my WiFi and the controller with no luck. Any suggestions?

Does it happen to anyone that sometimes the irrigation starts by itself despite the program being set to manual?

I had installed an irrigation controller and one plant sensor and it worked OK. Since I have added one Pixie-1 and one Pixie-Z1, on the app screen when I try to enter innthe red ring bell to see notifications, I am thrown out the app and I can’t see my notifications.

This sounds silly but with most apps offering a dark mode now it'd be nice to get a dark mode option in the netro app. Kinda tired of burning out my eyeballs when I launch the app later in the evening.

Our watering restrictions are on 6-days a week. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday do not show water schedule. How do I add these days to program?

Hi, I bought 2 Whisperer sensors and when I try to connect to the Netro Wifi, it doesn't show up in my Wifi networks.  The other one showed up no problem.  Is there a factory reset option?

Hi,
I think I am cursed. I had to run a new line for two of my sprinkler valves as I had to move them and it was easier just to run new wire. The sit together in the same hand hole. I am having problems with one of the valves as it goes on when any of the other zones is active. I have replaced the valve once, the selenoid twice (showing solid OHM rating both times. I have the senenoid screwed down nearly all the way. It is the same zone (8) every time. I took a common wire and two others from the new line one went to each valve and the other to the far left common post. The valves, of course, are wired with one from the zone, and the other to the common wire that goes back to the far left C.  When the zone is off it is showing it is throwing about 2 volts AC. I suspect that is normal, or is it a sign of something else? 

I have a Spark 16 and it has been in operation less than a month. 
Thanks,
Kirk
