EZRain Sensor Control

[sanders2222]

Does anyone know how to (or if you can) hookup a 'rainfall sensor' to the EZRain device?

 

According to Smarthome's information, the RJ-45 jack on the unit is for sensor control. But, from what I see, the jack only provides the ability to run a Cat5e extension cord to the sprinkler controllers. I posted this question on Smarthome's forum page months ago but have not received any responses.

 

Do I have to abandon my old TORO sensor and use Weatherbug module to determine the rainfall amount?

Use the SimpleHomeNet web site. In the Support/Downloads section, the EZFlora Command Set document shows the RJ45 connections. I suggest getting one of the EZBreakout connectors. Makes connection to anything through the RJ45 jack much easier. I have a pulse water meter hooked to mine. Have not tried the rain sensor but the connection is straight forward and detailed in document for the EZFlora.
