I don’t yet have an open sprinkler pi but I’ve already begun to write an application for it. This led to a discovery that my irrigation system may, or may not be, compatible with open sprinkler pi.
So essentially I have this rather dated controller where I can toggle “auto, off, and on” and always a rotatory timer with little pieces of metal that trip the system on/off. Essentially I have no control over which zone I want to turn on, it’s sequental. Example, if I want to turn on the 3rd zone I would need to turn it on and off 3 times in order to activate that zone, with a pause in between to allow the main valve to rotate zones.
I could be wrong, but this is how the guy explained it to me. Does this mean that I only have 1 station that controls 4 zones?
Sorry if this is confusing, ask any specific questions that would make this clearer to you. I’m by no means an irrigation expert or an EE, I’m just a programmer.
