Question

Posted (edited)

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some help configuring my irrigation system in Fibaro. Currently, I manage 4 zones using a custom QuickApp, but my current "schedule" is a bit of a hassle - it's a semi-manual process that requires manual triggering. I would like to fully automate this while still retaining the ability for manual control.
 

I need to implement a specific logic for each zone (Section 1–4):

  • Startup Sequence: The power supply and Master Valve must activate first, followed by the specific zone valve after a 1-second delay.

  • Interlock: The system must prevent two or more zones from running at the same time.

  • Manual Lockout: Manual control of the valves should be disabled while the automated schedule is running.
     

Crucially, I want to manage the schedules via Fibaro’s built-in Sprinklers Panel. My goal is to ensure that the safety interlocks and startup logic (Master Valve delay) are fully integrated with the native system scheduler.
 

My current QuickApp works fine, but it lacks the smart automation and logic mentioned above. I’ve attached a wiring diagram for reference.
I'm open to removing the QuickApp if it's necessary for the new setup.

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi,
    this is a simple app I’ve created using AI.

    Any binary switch (switches) can be made a sprinkler (by linked device feature) from the system perspective.
    It can group few valves if you like:

    Every sprinkler then can be used in the build-in Garden Panel.
    You can create a sequence to enable the Main valve a minute before normal watering valves, keep it on for whole time when other valves are opened in sequence - as below:

    You don't need a QuickApp or custom integration for scheduling.

    If you would like to avoid watering you can select a rain detector/soil humidity sensor in linked device creation to force the valves to be closed if its raining for example.
    If you would like to bypass this, its possible to make a very simple quickapp with 2 buttons (rain detector type) and set its state manually to stop watering on demand.

    @m.roszak Michael, any chance that the irrigation will get some mobile app instance too???
