Repeating same area in the same day

Dear customer,


Netro calculates the smart schedules based on environmental conditions including the soil type. If some zones are watered multiple times a day, you probably selected clay, clay loam or loam as the soil type which accepts water slowly, often as little as 1/4 inch per hour and that is why we break the watering into many pieces to avoid water runoff.


Thanks,

Dear customer,

Could you please let us know the LED status? Could you please follow the steps below to reset the unit:
1.Power off the device(unplug the power adapter)
2.Wait for 2 seconds, plug the power back in
3.Wait for 3 minutes for the device to start up
4.Press the reset button for less than 1 second to do a soft reset (use a pin insert to the RST hole button, when you feel a "click" release the button)
5.Wait for 5 seconds. This should set the light to slow blinking.
6. Then you can go to the Netro app -> settings-> controller -> change wifi network/password.

Please let us know if it works.

Thanks,
Wency

Dear customer,


You can customize the weather restrictions  This is in setting -> preferences -> rain. By default, Netro skip schedules today and tomorrow if today rains more than 0.2 inch. You can customize it, like I want to skip the schedules on the day after tomorrow as well, or I want to skip if rain more than 0.5 inch.


Thanks,

Dear customer,

Do you have a master zone/pump? Could you please do a test: Manually water each zone with 1 minute intervals and check if every zone shuts off after 1 minute every time?

Dear customer,


When the smart zone is enabled, Netro will skip smart watering and programs when there is large amount of rain(>0.2inch/ 5.08 mm) or watering regulations and manual restrictions. Could you please check if your smart zone is enabled?


Thanks,

Dear customer,


The manual interface currently displays the interface for the standalone sensor, which is not assigned to any specific zone. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

Zones not watering

Updated at 2023-06-26 07:49:37 UTC

Dear customer,


Could you please check the smart watering level of your zones? If it is the basic level, the smart zone schedule will not override your own programmed schedules.  You will need to add programs manually.


For more information about Netro smart watering, here is an article about Netro three watering modes which might be helpful. https://netrohome.com/forum/posts/111

What is the boost factor in smart zones?

Wency Pan
Updated at 2023-06-20 08:18:45 UTC

Dear customer,


The Boost Factor feature can be used to adjust the watering amount. If you set the value to 2, the watering duration will be doubled. Conversely, if you set it to 0.5, the watering duration will be reduced by half.


If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Dear customer,

it seems the device's network connection may not be very stable.

Could you please try reducing the distance between the device and the router or removing any obstacles between them? It may also be helpful to bridge another router to your network.

If you have any further concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

Unknown irrigation zone that did not work

Updated at 2023-06-20 01:48:29 UTC

Dear customer,


We suggest using 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. In this way, you can determine if the valve should be checked.


Thanks,

Dear customer,


Rain delay is to forbidden watering in the next following days after rain and it is one-time setting. If you want to save the settings, please go to settings->preferences -> rain -> days to skip.

To cancel the rain delay restriction, please go to schedule->tab the specific date (date with gray dot beneath is your restriction date), then tab on the specific restriction, it will give you the option to cancel the restriction.

Dear customer,

We have implemented the app notification when the device starts to water. Currently it is ready for beta testing. If you are interested in trying this feature, we will enable it internally for you. In the next app release, there will be a public on/off control for this feature.

Thanks,
