Hi

I have been using this Netro Pixie for one and half month. It is actually my second Pixie. The first one arrived broken as the valve was not opening properly for watering, I could hear a "hiisss" sound like air spraying.

The second pixie arrived and I have used it for one and half month, very reliable and I love the fact that it has the photovoltaic cell.

Yet, yesterday I uninstalled it as I do not need it anymore till next spring and... in spite of opening the valve and turning it upside down to empty it, I could still hear noice of water inside the device. I opened the battery compartment and... there was water inside... lots of water... actually as soon as I turned it upside down and shaken it, it went for a reboot.

How is it possible that there was water inside??? I have been using watering timers for fifteen years from brands like Gardenia and never ever had this issue. Isn't it supposed to be a sealed device?

I am sure it won't work next spring...

Anybody else has had this issue?

Thanks

Hi and thanks for fixing my last bug.

Another problem I have is with IFTTT being out of sync with my Pixie, eg, I schedule the Pixie to operate between 4:30 am and 4:45 am but IFTTT, whichI use to switch on the pump, reports it active between 4:43 to 5:24 am.

The consequence is that I only get 2 minutes of water as the Pixie has already stopped the flow by the time IFTTT turns the pump on.

Please advise.

How to delete a schedule on my watering system.

So has anyone else have random sprinklers turn on even though there is no program active for the sprinkler?

I had to turn off most of my programs because I have to reduce my sprinkler heads. And now I’m getting random sprinklers coming on.

My unit has been working great . However, the relay no longer trips when a zone is activated. Am I supposed to have 24v A/C between M and C (on the right side of the panel, not the zone side) when a zone is active? I can trip the relay if I pull it from the Netro. Some sort of voltage output map would be helpful. 

Hello,

I was wondering if it's possible and makes sense to connect more than one rain sensor to the Netro Sprite.

Anyone running into an issue of having two zones run at the same time when doing a manual run?

We had enabled Smart Watering. It was watering each zone twice, for a very long time - totalling up to 2 hours nearly daily, unless it was raining. I know the standard comment from Netro CS is that it's better to water deeply and less frequently, but this was watering every day...2 hours a day. It's too much. I disabled smart watering, and created my own program, but it 1) doesn't show up in the calendar/schedule and 2) the home page says "Next run not scheduled". How do I enable my custom program to run? Is there some small enable/disable button somewhere I need to use? Do I need to clear everything and start from scratch? We'd love a nice green lawn, but can't water for 2 hours every day (on just a small front yard!). 

Also, it'd be nice if there was a way to talk to a technician. Thank you.

Can you guys add weather station

Hi today the smart schedule wateres while sensors above the 50% humid. I stopped manually. It is weird because the schedule shows to skip the zone but it watered anyway. Zone 3 and zone 4. Zone 1 is correct

May you check it?

I was told the custom schedule would not let my moisture level go below the min I set but it goes below the min all the time

Because it rained for two days, I put temporary restrictions on programming my Netro. Now I cannot reprogram it no matter what I do! Any clue what I should do besides the manual or adding new program?

Trying to add a new manager. Any email address I enter results in a "can't find user ..." error message.

Hi, I had a Sprite working OK but I needed to move it to another location and WIFI network. I assumed starting from scratch was the easiest method and deleted the controller on the App but now I cant get it back into host mode (<1sec press of reset button) or factory reset it (6-8 sec)....The LED flashes about once every 6 secs or so not every second, no matter what I do. 

So I never see the Netro_IRC wifi network ....

How do I fix this ?

I have seen quick stop watering on landing page in app once. Than not anymore. Is this a recent feature? Looks not stable. Meanwhile I cannot see stop button on manual run page where it was before. Shame that everone got wet on garden party.

My flower gardens have several inches of wood chip mulch covering the soil.  After a season of "Smart Watering" my beds are dry and the perennial plants are stressed.

Does mulch absorb irrigation water intended for the plants?  Is the presence of mulch a factor affecting the duration of an irrigation cycle?

I have an ! inside a yellow triangle showing up on days my sprinklers run. 

What does the ! mean?

It shows watering, but it is not?

It Rains and Netro still watering my plants unless I add daily skips when I see the weather forecast. 

Hi!

Tonight at 2.30 my netro start to watering. I had to stop it starting a manual program and stop it because in the app there was no watering sign.

Then I put a restriction for 3 days and around noon netro starts to watering again. There was a lost wifi signal for a minute cause by a voltage drop. 

Is it normal?

Thank you
