Smart watering has taken over my system. It waters on the wrong days at the wrong times. I have tried and tried to reprogram it with no success. I have asked for support from Netro at least 10 times and they have no support. Can someone please help me and tell me how to program the stupid smart system? It waters my plants three days in a row and then doesn’t water it for four days. My grass is dying. My plants are dying. Everything is dying because Netro has zero support. They don’t even have helpful videos on YouTube someone please help.

My terminal 1 is not working anymore. How can I troubleshoot?

deleting plant sensor??

Hello

I have 2 pixe devices and 2 hubs. I have 1 hub and pixie working fine. When I added the 2nd hub it does not show up in the app and therefore cannot add the 2nd pixie what am I doing wrong

I am doing yard work to 2 of my 3 zones right now and have the whole system disabled for several days as many heads are disconnected.  Woke up a 5am to have zone 3 on and spraying water everywhere for 20 minutes. 

How is this possible? Why do you not update your softwar? 

Hi,

I see a boost factor option in the web interface. I understand it's meant to increase or decrease the watering time. You can see the effect in the estimated watering times and schedules.

In the app, however, that option does not exist and, in fact, it shows a different estimate than the web interface. Why is that? Which one does the system pay attention to? The settings in the web, or those in the app?

Thanks!

Good afternoon

I have plant sensors in all zones, and they block.

Sometimes i have my grass really dry and the sensor have 70/80 % of humidity.

I turn them off change place like 2 cm, turn them in again and they have the correct humidity.

Anyone experience this?

Thank you in advance

I have the following odd situations:

1. The Netro does not show any watering activity.

2. My watering system is turning on by itself, and one of my zones is just firing away, spreading water for hours on end.

3. The Netro does not seem to be be able to stop it or even show that it's running.

4. Unplugging the Netro did fix the problem. Even more bizarre

I have an old Netro that never did this. I wonder if I should just swap them out?  This newest one seems to bug sometimes?

Any thoughts what could be doing this?

Ho, we need support, as we are having an issue as the app doesn’t activate watering. The control unot shows E1.

Hi,

I'm struggling to setup watering time, even after third season im using this app.

As per my settings, EPA suggest to water every day, 30 minutes a day for each zone. The grass is getting sick as all past 2 years, cause the frequency is too high.

I would expect it to water for 1 hour, each 3-4 days. This is what i call "deep watering".

I tried following settings, the frequency decreases, but no way that i can increase the watering time which remains 30 minutes.

Help please

Hello,

Since 2 days now, my netro Sprite is offline.

The light is solid  but quickly blinks each 6 seconds.

What should I do?

Are Netro servers online?

Thank you,

David.

Hello 

Just bought a Netro sprite-6 and a power adapter 600 ma but the sprinklers go up but not down, why? Could it be the amperage?

I exchange the power adapter for a 800 mA and i still have the same problem. 

If i do a manual irrigation and turn  it off in the middle it doesnt turn off,but if i tried once more to turn it on it turns it off....

The smart schedule overlaps with the watering adjustment program that runs when the moisture goes below a %.

Yo can see here that zone 5 run 10 minutes the program and then 37 minutes the scheduler.  It has no sense and it is a waste of water.

1. After the watering adjustment run, the smart scheduler should recalibrate the timing based on the humidity of the land.
2. I have the whisperers, the whisperer should monitor the humidity and stop the smart watering once it reaches 99% of humidity but it seems the program runs all the way.

This could be improved in the application.

Thanks for your support and keep up the good job

En relación con mi pregunta anterior ya he visto que poniendo el riego nocturno a las 23:30 se acepta, pero si se pone a las 23:59 sale el error. Por lo tanto anulen mi anterior pregunta, aunque me resulta algo extraño que no permita 23:59 siendo el mismo día.

Saludos.

He instalado mi nuevo Netro Spark. En modo smart produce demasiados riegos en una determinada zona de forma muy constante, y con demasiado tiempo. No me parece nada lógico. Quiero dejar eliminado el modo smart y programar personalmente el riego. Consigo programar un riego de las cuatro zonas que utilizo en un determinado horario de la mañana, pero cuando voy a añadir un segundo riego diario por la noche me da un mensaje "ERROR: Program cannot cross a day".

¿Significa esto que solo puedo programar un riego al día? Muy extraño, mi anterior programador permitía tantos riegos diarios como quisiera simplemente indicando las horas.

Por favor, una solución, porque si solo se puede programar un riego al día no me soluciona nada este dispositivo.

Gracias.

Dear netro team,

I missing the function that I can open two zones at the same time.  If this is possible you could combine different valves.

This would be a huge advantage.

Thanks for your response. 

I noticed that Weather Flow PWS was added as a weather provider for Netro and successfully linked my Weather Flow Tempest with my Netro Pixie Z1+Hub+Whisperers.  However I have a few questions:

1) There seems to be no way to remove or change the link to Weatherflow, like selecting another station.  Can you add a way to do that?  

2) Since linking to Netro, I have changed the name of my Tempest Device on their platform from the default serial number to a descriptive name, but Netro still shows the old name for the device when I click on it in the Weather Provider menu, is that a problem, or are they still linked?  (and if it is a problem, how can I update the link?)

3) What data is actually pulled from Weatherflow?  The forecast shown in the Netro app does not line up exactly with what my tempest shows, nor do the rainfall totals on the discover tab.  

4) I have also linked my Tempest with Weather Underground and can use them as a Weather Provider instead.  The Netro app says Weatheflow PWS shares 9 days of forecast and 1 day of history, while Wunderground PWS shares 7 days of forecast and 7 days of history.  I prefer not relying on an additional middleman to link my tempest to Netro, but is it better to have the additional history or additional forecast?

Hi!

What is the proper way for changing Whisperer from standalone mode to adding it to my Netro Pixie or Sprite?

Thanks! 

Apparently there are times when the wifi connection to one of our Pixie devices is not reliable.  Yes, I should work on that.  However, it has worked flawlessly in the past, and this is something new.  Nonetheless, when the water schedule fails because of no wifi signal, there should be some kind of notifcation OTHER than having to open the app, go to the calendar, and look for the tiny red icon.  The app is right there on the phone, and could generate a notification.  The app has the email address and could generate a notification.  The current method is borderline dysfunctional, and mostly useless.

The main screen can say "Watered 10 hours ago"  .. but the calendar OBVIOUSLY shows that that even did not happen.
