    Hi, is there any easy method to close the on-board mini relay whenever a valve (any/all) is opened (or even set it operate as a master valve) ?

    Thanks in advance,

    B

    In the 2.1.3 version of firmware, there is a setting called “Activate Relay” that (I think) will do this. You can find it in each station’s definition window.

    Sean is right: in firmware 2.1.3, each station has an attribute called ‘Activate Relay’. You can also set the relay pulsing time in ‘Edit Options’ — the idea is: when relay pulsing is 0, the relay will stay on as long as the station is on; when relay pulsing is a positive number, it will pulse when the station turns on or off (to simulate button presses).

    Support for relay has been removed in the upcoming firmware 2.1.4 — primarily because the relay has been removed from all current and future versions of OpenSprinkler hardware.
