Greetings from Italy

this Monday I will receive my Netro Smart Irrigation controller and I have some concerns about the power supply.

On the YouTube video guide I saw there are 2 slots to put the power cables but I was only able to find a regular 24V power adapter with one single output.

Do I have to cut the power jack off and split the cables in order to put them in the controller?

thanks in advance for your help, can’t wait to become part of the Netro family!

this is the power adapter I ordered: Alimentatore 220 V – 24 V/1000mA https://www.amazon.it/dp/B00AWU8NUM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_OBgjFbJ8Q41F1

this is the Netro device I ordered: Netro Sprinkler Smart Controller, WiFi, Meteo consapevoli, Accesso remoto, 12 Zone, w/o Adattatore di Alimentazione https://www.amazon.it/dp/B07DGT7ZK1/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_iCgjFbP0QZ4DH

Right now the watering schedule the Netro program is using for my St. Augustine grass is killing my grass. I live in Dallas and Jully/August is brutal on lawns. If I water outside the schedule the program has established the schedule is changed. Is there anyway for me to water my with Netro and keep the smart watering schedule Netro has? Right now I by pass the Netro by manually engaging my water values, not using Netro. 

Thanks,

Will

Hi, I'm a new user of Netro and for the moment I find it very functional. But it would be very convenient to have the integration for Home Assistant, a very popular open source home automation management platform.

Thanks

Hi 

I am a new user here and just installed the Netro in my house. The “Smart watering” schedule seems very odd to me.

As you can see there are 2 rounds for each zone and the time of zone 4 is about an hour in one round. Is this normal ?

Hello, I set the app to run 3 manual programs on the odds day and I have the smart watering system active on all zones.

Will it skip my watering if there is rain in the forecast on an odd day?

Dear community

I wondering what is the best moisture level to keep for lawn. The sensor is somewhere around 42%, after watering the garden. Is that enough, should it be more?

Thanks community for your help.

Hello,

I'm on vacation and my internet connection has been cut off. I had planned before on netro waterings for the week. Is that without an internet connection in my house, the waterings programmed before will still be done?

Best regards 

Arnaud

Does it mean the system skip the watering or does it mean there is something wrong with the irrigation system?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I have a 6 zone Netro sprite and need to update my wifi settings. No matter what I do I'm unable to get the Netro to enter host mode. I've tried hitting the RST button numerous times before or after manual reboots (even waiting the full 3+ minutes after re-plugging the device in). I even tried a full manual reset by holding the RST button for 10 seconds and the device still doesn't reset. I'm starting to doubt whether the reset button on my device works.

Has any one had any similar problems or pointers for just getting the Netro to join a new WiFi network? I'd rather not do a full reset and lose my zone settings, but at this point I've even tried that and can't get that working.

Hi i have a watering adjustment on the whisperer set to kick in at 40%

Since it was turning on at random times immediately when it dropped below 40% I also added a general restriction from 10am to 8pm.

After I added the restriction the watering adjustment doesn't seem to work. It's past 8pm moisture is at 28% but the sprinklers did not turn on why?

Hi, 

My solar powered controller doesn’t charge its battery - not sure if it’s a battery problem - the controller is under direct sunlight for at least 6 hours every day.

I’ve set it to water for 1 hour every day so it’s a simple On/Off once a day.

Have other people had this issue?

Hi 

I added my wife as a manager successfully but i don t know how i can let her see the device from her app. At the moment the she log in but the appis not connected to any device

Thanks

Hi there,

I am a great satisfied user of the Netro Sprite system I have been using for more than a year now without any significant issue.

I am also fond of the Jeedom system which is the most famous home automation box deployed in France. I am a DIY user of Jeedom since I created my own box through a raid1-debian-raspberry system which works finely. Nevertheless one important thing is missing to this box : a plugin for connecting the Netro Watering system to the rest of the home automation eco system. The only way I can integrate "a piece" of Netro is through the IFTTT integration you have been provided a couple of months ago. To be frank this IFTTT integration is not working very well and quite disappointing : functionally limited, high latency, lost of triggers, low resilience...and then unusable in my point of view.

I think it would be great if a real integration could be done. I'm in the starting blocks to develop the Jeedom plugin as soon as you decide to publish your API. Let me know, it's a matter of a few days of workload that I would easily find in my spare time. I am extremely motivated :-)

Well done for your system, it's the best on the market!

Regards,
Christophe
