Hi there,

I have an irrigation system in my garden with 7 zones. The solenoid valves and the irrigation controller are new. Irrigation was already in place when I bought the house, so I don't know where the underground pipes run.


When I open one of the zones, no sprinkler pops up. I don't know if the pipe is clogged or if the sprinklers were removed or just don't work. Digging in my garden is very difficult because the soil is very stony.


Is there any technique, trick or machine that will allow me to track the underground pipe in that area? I would like to rehabilitate it.

Thanks! 


Any comments are welcome.

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!
