Samer, Thanks for your promptness. I should go see my optometrist I think.
FYI, I have been ‘bench testing’ and pre-configuring the OSPi while I await the deliver of my OpenSprinkler Controller hardware – so there is no controller connected. Perhaps this is why the software is misbehaving?
Also some of the options for the stations are missing – like ‘Relay contact closure’ – perhaps this again is because no controller hardware.
Also the system has been running Ok overnight with no ‘Network Error’ banner. Also I saw the issue previously on both local (web browser via local LAN), and remote (iPhone App via 3G Cellular to my local router/gateway configured with port forwarding and no port number translation).
Question, how long does it take for the remote App to re-sync with the OpenSprinkler? I make changes locally and find that the remote App doesn’t reflect these immediately – i’ve had to kill and restart the App on iPhone and then changes are shown.
This is my first go at OpenSprinkler. I loaded the latest Raspbian image onto my Model B Raspeberry Pi. Then loaded this unified firmware 2.1.3 (actually it reports as being 2.1.4). all appears to work except;
1. How do I change the Station names? even the official 2.1.3 User Manual shows stations as ‘S01″ then on another page it shows actual meaning names like “Front Yard”
2. I keep getting “Network Error” displayed in red at bottom of web-page and on the mobile app after some period of time which replaces the “Idle” message. The unit is hardwired to my router and I can happily http into it and SSH into the Raspberry Pi and all looks good. What is the network error?
