Problem: Spark 8 controller stuck on "in communication"

Stefano F
Updated at 2025-08-10 07:01:41 UTC 
Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing a serious issue with my Netro Spark 8 controller. It connects correctly to Wi-Fi and appears online in the app, but when I try to start irrigation manually, the app just stays on "in communication" and nothing happens.

Here’s what I’ve already tried:

- Restarting both the app and the device  
- Using a different Wi-Fi network, including a mobile hotspot  

Despite these attempts, the problem persists. I also tested the solenoids with a multimeter, and they’re working correctly. If I activate the valves directly from the controller, they respond as expected—so it’s clearly not a hardware issue.

I should also mention that I previously had the same problem with two Sprite6 controllers. That’s why I switched to the Spark 8, hoping it would solve the issue. Unfortunately, it hasn’t.

To make matters worse, scheduled programs aren’t working either.

This is an urgent situation because my plants are currently without water. I’d really appreciate any help or suggestions to resolve this.

Thanks in advance,  
Stefano

I cannot activate my PIXIE-Z1 to water, it is with brand new batteries, it says 100%, it is online and app and webpage react as all is fine and watering, but unfortunately nothing happens with the device. It works if I push twice the button on the device.


What could the issue be?

Thank you in advance

Whisperer 1 Dead

Hi,

My Whisperer 1 doesn’t show any signs of life after two weeks in bright sunlight.

I’m pretty sure the battery or charging circuit is dead after no use for over a year.

Do you offer a repair service or replacement battery?

Regards,

Andy Fiore

Hello, I have 5 sprite-type irrigation controller units installed. In one of them, the irrigation stops after approximately 14 seconds on all channels, although it still appears as watering in the status. We have measured the electrical resistance and it is normal.

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!

Smart Sprinkler Controlle starts then stops

Nigel Briggs
Updated at 2025-01-10 23:15:31 UTC 

Hi.

My controller operates but many times, rather than executing the time setting. It just cuts out? 

I do have a sensor connected but I took it out of the ground to exclude wet soil feedback 

I'm guessing there is a parameter forcing the stops? 

Could anyone give me a direction where to look? 


Thanks

Solenoid does not switch off

Updated at 2024-11-15 00:49:20 UTC 

Hello


My system has 5 solenoids.  All worked fine until recently.  One will turn on and off manually.  


However in smart timer it turns in but not off.  


How can I confirm if a app set up issue or a hardware issue with solenoid itself.

Netro Spark valve testing

Peter Strohmayer
Updated at 2024-11-14 13:49:20 UTC 
How does the Spark test the valves?


I want to connect a 24V input sensor on the spark outlet channels to switch 2 knx connect valves in different location. Cabling to those valves is to long for 24V. 
The valve testing always says that there is not current and switch it off --> Do i need a resistor on the outlet to simulate a valve? If yes, which value should the resistor have?


Thanks,

Peter

Zone won't shut off.

shoo.shoo
Updated at 2024-11-10 05:55:43 UTC 

Hi,


I have 4 zones and a master valve. When I run any of the zones, they won't shut off when the timer runs out. If I switch the AC power off, then the valve will shut. I have checked the valve and it has no issue with opening and closing except when the sprite is running it. I tested cables for continuity, and I have tried swapping cables with no change. My ac power pack is AC 24v.


This issue affects each of the valves but only when controlled via the sprite. The valves are fully operational otherwise.


Hoping for a fix, otherwise will return to Amazon under warranty and get another brand.

Sprite controller cycles on and off wifi

BrettEnyart
Updated at 2024-10-13 18:02:06 UTC 
My Netro controller is about three years old. I recently changed my Wi-Fi router about two months ago.  I repaired the controller with the new Wi-Fi, all seemed to work for a few days. Then the controller started cycling on and off of Wi-Fi. There are windows of several minutes that I can communicate with the controller, then windows of several hours when I cannot.  The light on the controller is solid for about 20 seconds, then three slow blinks, solid for 20 seconds, then three slow blanks, this pattern continues indefinitely. I have repaired the controller to WiFi several times. I have unplugged and then plugged the controller back in multiple times. Nothing seems to resolve the issue. It’s frustrating when I’m changing sprinkler heads and have to wait several hours to try a manual run to test the new heads. Has anyone else experience this and more importantly solved this issue? Thanks for the help!

Sprite wont connect to your internet so I can move forward

Updated at 2024-10-05 18:05:09 UTC 

My controller has been out almost a month. I have factory reset, short reset uninstalled app, and unplugged it. No matter what I do, i cannot get past the connect to netro wifi step. I need to blow out my sprinklers and I cannot get my device to work to manually run them. It will say its connected and do the spinning wait thing, then suddenly tell me to connect to the netro internet again. When I go to do it again it says no internet connection. Please help me. I sent an email from my email as the registered user (husband) is deployed in the middle east. Please look for an email from "kimbo__@" 


Thanks!
