smart Irrigation Control
Require: IP-Symcon >= 6.0
Since the Gardena API does not transmit the schedules created in the app, irrigation plans can be implemented using the weekly schedule and the actions provided.
Description
The smart irrigation control device offers various services in IP-Symcon which, for example, make it possible to identify the status of the device or switch the various valves.
Services
An instance can be created for each service using the configurator.
In the instance configuration, the 'Show last transmitted' switch can be activated to create a variable for each value, if available, that contains the time of the last data transfer.
