Cannot add sensor to Pixie controller

19
Wency Pan
Updated at 2022-04-19 02:02:54 UTC

Dear customer,


Are you adding an existing sensor to your Pixie timer or moving standalone sensors to a zone?

To move the stand alone sensor to a zone, first you have to go to Settings->Sensors->Edit(upper right corner) and then delete the sensor. Next you will have to go to the home page. There is a drop down menu and please select your timer, then tap the "+" button on the upper right corner,  go to Add a Product->WifiDevice-> Plant sensor and then complete the following procedures to add the sensor. You will need to press the button 6 times on the back of the sensor to change its mode to Setup mode (light blinking slowly).


Please let us know if it works.


Thanks,

Wency

Dear customer,


We suggest 1000feet. However, zone area will not affect smart watering. It is used to calculate water usage.

How to manually run a Sprite sprinkler circuit for testing?

19
Wency Pan
Updated at 2022-04-07 02:36:20 UTC

Hi Mike,


To test the sprinkler, you can use the instant manual run feature on the Home page to turn on and off the zones instantly. The blue play button is for instant manual run for your zones.

You can also use the “Test run” feature on the login page. In this way you do not need to have a home Wi-Fi or create a Netro account. Your phone is directly connected to the Wi-Fi network hosted by the Sprite. This mode allows you to turn on and off the zones without involving the Netro cloud server.

Thanks,

Wency

Completely lost

Updated at 2022-04-06 08:12:38 UTC

Dear customer,


For the standby/offline issue, we will fix it in the next release of the app. We have updated it for you from the server side and please login your account to check if it works now. 

In the default mode, Pixie will go to sleep mode to save power after 5 minutes when it is manually powered on. Every hour it will wake up to check the latest watering schedules and report the power percentage. Therefore, when you start a manual run, the timer is most likely in sleep mode.


If you have to water instantly, you can go to Settings -> Timer-> "Keep Online" and enable the feature. Note the timer may start to keep online the next day and battery consumption will be faster when the timer is in this mode. Please refer to this article for more info:
https://netrohome.com/en/shop/user_guides/2


For the past or scheduled watering times, Netro shows last watered time on the home screen after the watering activities are executed. You can also view watering schedules on Schedule page. 


Please find the user guide through Settings->Support->Pixie Hose Faucet Timer and let us know if you have any further questions.


Thanks,

Wency

Hi Maureen,


You can choose "customized" mode to adjust watering by providing the preferred moisture level and flow rate of your sprinklers. Please go settings->zones->specific zone number->smart zone-enabled->Mode. The manul run button is in the home page, below the Netro logo, there is task bar "online", "battery percentage", "manual run", "rain delay".
