Rain Delay in the Sprinkler Panel

[Ros 22]

Do you guys know how the Rain Delay and Sun adjustment actually work?

• Do I have to set the Rain delay manually everytime there is rain? Or does HC2 automatically do this based on the weather forecast?
• How about the Water adjustment?
• Does this panel work with Yahoo! Weather plugin? Which weather service I should use?

 

Sorry if these questions are too basic, but this is poorly documented.

 

Thanks!

hi! As the fact, more functionality (all panels functionality (/panels/),  sending a photo from cams, etc) in HC2 look like demo / mock.  As practice shows - is not usable.

so, all that you want you can develop via LUA scripts.

Omg. So the Rain delay IS MANUAL? You have to sit by the window, spot the rain and then set the rain delay MANUALLY?

It just cannot be true... I refuse to believe it...

Any more clarity on this? I can’t believe it either! This is not a cheap cima scam, it costs money!

Hi @MarcFinns ,

 

@10der  told you the truth, you need some LUA code to change rain delay, adjust water or change number of cycles. You can either use builtin weather plugin or some other solution to check weather and then change those parameters with following lines of code:

Hope this answers your question.
