Hello Everyone, Been looking at this for a week and should be ready to poke holes. I have six programs, 8 integer/float variables and one state variab Variables: $Eto $Rain_Threshold $Water_Applied $Yesterdays_Water_Deficit $Rain_Yesterday $Irrigation_Requirement $Absorption_Factor_Percent $Crop_Coefficient_Percent State Variable: $sRain_Today First need to initialize some variables: NS Irrigation Reset - [ID 007F][Parent 007D][Run At Startup] If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then $Rain_Threshold = 37 $Rain_Threshold /= 100 $Rain_Threshold Init To $Rain_Threshold $Water_Applied = 25 $Water_Applied /= 100 $Water_Applied Init To $Water_Applied Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Next we need to capture eto: NS Eto Wrapup - [ID 009E][Parent 007D] If Time is 11:59:58PM Then $ETo = 'MeteoBridge Weather / Illumination' Evapotranspiration Inches $ETo Init To $ETo Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Catch 11-Midnight just in case: NS Eto Wrapup Last Chance - [ID 009F][Parent 007D] If Time is 12:02:00AM And 'MeteoBridge Weather / Illumination' Evapotranspiration > '$ETo Inches' Then $ETo = 'MeteoBridge Weather / Illumination' Evapotranspiration Inches $ETo Init To $ETo Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Finalize Irrigation Requirement: NS Rain Wrapup - [ID 007E][Parent 007D] If Time is 12:03:00AM Then $Rain_Yesterday = 'MeteoBridge Weather / Precipitation' Rainfall Yesterday Inches $Rain_Yesterday *= $Absorption_Factor_Percent $Yesterdays_Water_Deficit = $ETo $Yesterdays_Water_Deficit *= $Crop_Coefficient_Factor_Percent $Yesterdays_Water_Deficit -= $Rain_Yesterday $Yesterdays_Water_Deficit /= 100 $Irrigation_Requirement += $Yesterdays_Water_Deficit $Irrigation_Requirement Init To $Irrigation_Requirement $Rain_Yesterday = 'MeteoBridge Weather / Precipitation' Rainfall Yesterday Inches Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Trigger Watering if needed: NS Water If Needed - [ID 009C][Parent 007D] If Time is 6:00:00AM And $Irrigation_Requirement > $Rain_Threshold And $sRain_Today < $Rain_Threshold Then Run Program 'Irrigation Started' (Then Path) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Modification to Stations All Off: Stations All Off - [ID 0055][Parent 0056][Not Enabled] If 'MeteoBridge Weather / Precipitation' Daily Rainfall > '$Rain_Threshold Inches' Then $Manual_Currently_Running = 0 Stop program 'Station1 Timer' Stop program 'Station2 Timer' Stop program 'Station3 Timer' Stop program 'Station4 Timer' Stop program 'Station5 Timer' Stop program 'Station6 Timer' Stop program 'Station7 Timer' Stop program 'Station8 Timer' Set 'Back Yard / Rear Water' Off Set 'Back Yard / Tall Water' Off Set 'Back Yard / East Water' Off Set 'Front Yard / North Water' Off Set 'Front Yard / South Water' Off $Irrigation_Station = 0 Run Program 'Irrigation Finished' (Then Path) Disable Program 'Stations All Off' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') What this does is use all local data from Davis VP2. No forecast data is used. If it starts raining, it can abort. Irrigation requirement is initialized externally and is not range restricted yet. This is my simple first attempt. Comments??? Scott

Solar is also good to go. Thanks again! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Updated and immediately showed eto. Will check solar tomorrow. Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yes. The UV sensor should be treated separately and should not invalidate solar or eto. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Hello everyone, Got the hair to try out the all the weather node servers. Fastastic job everyone! With my vantage pro2, I am ready to join the testing effort. Currently working with MeteobridgeAuth, I am not getting any data from the illumination branch. Looking back at my pi, don't see any populated data in ns, but I do see solar radiation value coming from meteobridge.

My journey with the pool controller has ended. Intermatic has refused to help me with this controller, so unfortunate that this has become a $400 brick. They are not and will never be zwave compatible for the public.

Hello Everyone, Finally had time to finish the install. My Z-wave devices: Go Control bulbs, pe-653 pool/spa controller, kwickset locks, siren, dome mouse trap. 12->13 lost most of my zwave devices, but I added then back quickly. After Zwave board install, one of the locks disappeared, added back. The other one survived the restore. Didn't notice any reduction of z-wave reception range. Pool/spa controller still only partially works. Extended antennas and moved devices to have antennas one inch from each other to add back in. Looks like 8 endpoints added, only one works (high speed pump). Regards, Scott

Well, oops, my bad. 36 hours is the time period that it waited for. It appears that it is doing exactly what I told it. Like I said before, it is a bug, in my brain Sent from my zt180 using Tapatalk 2

The program that I am focusing on is the Weather Rain Delay 36 Hours program. It has no conditions and is enabled. It sets a variable Weather_Rained_Last_36_Hours to 1, then Waits 36 hours, then sets that variable to 0. The variable is an int variable. The Auto Scheduled Timer programs check if that variable is 0 only when the time condition is satisfied. The Weather Rain Delay 36 Hours program is briefly stopped if rain data provided by the weatherbug module is not zero, but I have modified this to be greater than 0.5. After being stopped, the program is restarted. Also, the Weather Rain Delay 36 Hours program is restarted by the Auto Scheduled Timer programs, which are both enabled. Weather Rain Delay 36 Hours is also set to run at startup. I found 3 versions of programs in the wiki. V1 is the brute force version, v2 uses variables and v3 uses the evapotranspiration module, which I don't have. Sent from my zt180 using Tapatalk 2

Hello Everyone, I have been using what I remember is version 2 of the irrigation program found in the wiki. I have modified it according to my current setup. I do not have the evapotranspiration module, so I don't use version 3. Last year, I noticed that it did not appear to be waiting the correct amount of time if no rain had fallen. I have just noticed this happening again. Upon further investigation, I have noticed that the wait appears to only be waiting half of the programmed time, i.e. 18 hours instead of the 36 hours that is in the program. There has not been any rain to reset the program chain. The program summary clearly indicates starting the wait program Friday at 11:30 pm and ending at Sunday 11:30 am. There are no entries in the log regarding a finished program at 11:30 am. My understanding of the program flow is that the wait for 36 hours program actually should never be stopped. So, my questions are, am I reading the program correctly, and if so, have a found a bug? Regards, Scott

A little off topic, but conductor for android is one android app that allows access to the isy-99. Actually, not quite so much off topic. Sent from my zt180 using Tapatalk

Hello Michel, Had the same problem again. Two more tests. Attempted to connect with telnet, no good, not even a prompt. Attempted pings with success. After reset, telnet successful. Regards, Scott Sent from my zt180 using Tapatalk

Hello Michel, The problem I was having has occured again. Powerline communications are normal. Scheduled programs appear to still be running. No access to the isy from the network. Unplugged the network connector and replugged did not restore network communications. Rebooted isy to restore web page and conductor communications. Regards, Scott Sent from my zt180 using Tapatalk

Hello Michel, The problem appears on conductor(wireless lan), and a wired computer. Several times per day, I read email, check forums and activate programs on my recently updated zenithink epad. I had noticed a lack of response sometimes late at night and in the morning. Attempting to investigate, I would check whether a computer would also not be able to connect. Unfortunately, I did not think to see if the ISY would run programs based on powerline activity, but I will remember this in the future. I just noticed that time scheduled programs with in the last few hours had executed. I have been avoiding conductor since I posted the problem and have noticed an improvement, but not one that I can quantify yet. Regards, Scott

Hello, I have been experiencing an unusually heavy number of isy user interface no responses lately. I am running 3.1.6 and I have not done any restores or backups. As far as I can tell, programs are still running. I usually try to get in with conductor first, then this morning, I tried with firefox. I have been working with brad on a camera problem, but with this too, it seems like a strange coincidence. I have just now been thinking, is there a way that these events could be related?
