Hi Alessandro, 


Are you referring to the soil moisture level? It depends on the plant type. For example, we suggest watering grass from 60%~90%. For example, watering your grass when the moisture drops to 60% and raising it to 90%. For shrubs, it is 50%~80%. For trees, it is 40%~60%.


Thanks,

Dear customer, 


If you turn off the smart zone feature, the rain delay feature is also disabled so you cannot have the app cancel programs if it rains more than 5mm.

Manual Mode not working

Hi Gary,


Does the app says the Netro controller is watering but it is not opening the valves? 


Please check the wires. Are they loose or disconnected from the slots? Please also check the common wires and the master valve if you have one. If you believe the wires are correctly installed,  please check if there is a main valve/faucet that is turned off manually. 

To test if the controller is working properly, use a multimeter (AC voltage mode) to test the voltage between the common wire and the zone wire when the zone is active. Normally the voltage should be between 24V and 28V.

You might also want to check whether there are shorted zones or open zones. You just need to use a multimeter to measure the resistance between the common wire and each zone (remove the wires from the slots before testing the resistance). The normal reading would be 20-60 Ohms. If the reading is less than 10 Ohms then you might have a shorted circuit in the solenoid and if it is larger than 80 Ohms you might have an open circuit. 

Thanks,

Wency

Hi Omer,


To reset the sensor to host mode, you will need to press the button 5-6 times to reset the sensor:

1. Press the power button once to turn on the sensor. If the sensor is already on, turn it off first by pressing the power button once.
2. Turn the sensor off quickly (in 1.5 seconds) before the LED light changes its color from white 
3. Press the button to turn on the sensor. Turn the sensor off quickly (in 1.5 seconds) before the LED light changes its color from yellow 
4. Press the button again to turn on the sensor. The LED should start to blink in white color.

Thanks,

Hi Angel,


This is how the self learning feature works: Netro's self-learning feature will update the model based on your soil type and data, for example, weather data.  It may take two weeks to complete the learning progress.

Please try leave the sensor under direct sunlight for several more days.

Weather station

Updated at 2022-10-17 06:03:30 UTC
Dear customer,

Netro gets weather forecast data from our weather provider, which could be not accurate enough, as weather forecasting is challenging.
If it is not correct, you can select other weather provider in settings->weather provider, you can also select the weather station ID with the Wunderground option.
With incorrect weather data, Netro’s smart algorithm could be not optima.
you can also adjust the rain data through Discover page->"+" button on the upper right corner-> Correct rainfall.

Thanks,

Hi Richard, 


Yes the main valve will only open when the irrigation system calls for water. You can get a master valve and connect it to the "M" slot of Netro controller. Let us know if you have any further questions.

Discover and weather accuracy

Updated at 2022-10-08 05:21:43 UTC

Hi Geron,


The issue is that the weather report may not be that accurate. If you want try other weather report, please go settings->weather provider. You can switch to other weather providers to see if it works better. 

You can adjust the rain data through Discover page->"+" button on the upper right corner-> Correct rainfall. You could also customized the weather restrictions, like I want to skip the schedules on the day after tomorrow as well, or I want to skip if rain more than 0.1 inch. The setting is in "setting -> preferences -> rain".

Of course, all weather forecast could be wrong. Netro tries the best to provide accurate watering schedule even with incorrect forecast. First, we periodically update the weather data, once the weather data is changed, we update the un-executed schedules ASAP. Second, we re-check the weather data for the past, update our model, and adjust following schedules accordingly.

Wency
