Question / Request

[ex-egll]

Hi, a couple of things that would make life easier for me, I am not sure whether they currently exist or if they can be added in a future release.

1. I have a rainfall monitor connected, but even with it set up for “maximum drying time” I find that the garden often does not need watering until well after the rain delay
switches off.

Would it be possible to have a delay factor (0-36 hours) that can be applied automatically after the rain sensor switches off?

2. I am watering some plants under a protected area where very little / no rain reaches.

Would it be possible to exclude specific programmes from the rain delay?

Thanks

1. Currently this is not supported. What you described is basically a sensor triggered delay. Usually this is done on the rain sensor itself, as it has venting mechanism to allow you to mechanically set a delay time.

2. You can set any station to be exempt from rain delay or rain sensor status. To do so, click the little gears icon next to each station, and check the ‘Ignore Rain’ attribute.
