Reply To: ospi2.img seems outdated

These are the changes. I also added the clearing of all stations in case of managed shutdown of OSPI. I think it is necessary to prevent unwanted water leak due to a valve left open accidentally. I would like to mention here that RF stations are not closed by forced clearing of stations.

Apply these changes and build OSPI with sudo ./build.sh ospi command.

To make watchdog work you have to edit /etc/modules file (sudo nano /etc/modules) and add this line to the end:
bcm2708_wdog

After restart the watchdog is operating. To test it stop the software with sudo /etc/init.d/OpenSprinkler.sh stop command. You will observe that the connection to the OSPI system is lost but will be automatically available again within 30-40 seconds.

I would appreciate if these changes were added to the official release.
