on Page 10 of the manual:
“Use Weather Adjustment: when checked, the % Watering applies to
all station water times in this program. Default is on.”

The box is not checked by default, so I think the default is disabled.

Also, if the box is not checked, the weather adjustment is not applied to the times in a program but in the logs the header reports the adjustment and the water saved

Using a flow meter would let you know that the valve is working and that it is watering

What happens if the contacts on the flow meter are closed when you stop watering? Would this look like rain to the controller?

I still have an accuracy issue on some zones. I disconnected the Raspberry Pi and attached a resistive load to the 5 volt output from the OpenSprinklerPi V1.3 board. The load draws about 150ma and I see the one plus volt noise from the switcher. Is this normal?

[bryanmee]

Thanks for the sanity suggestion. With the sensor disconnected I saw no flow. After doing some more checking I found if I connect the OsPi ground to earth ground I do not see any false pulses. I am still investigating but the switcher does not look like the cause of my problem. Thanks

You might try another SD card from a major manufacturer (SanDisk or Samsung) to verify that it is not a card issue.
