BACKUP YOUR SETTINGS BEFORE UPDATE!

Depending on the old version, your OpenSprinkler will perform a reset and reset all settings. Therefore, you should back up your settings first. In the menu in the app or web interface there is “Export configuration” to save and “Import configuration” to import the backup again.

The default password is “opendoor” and should be changed!

Danger: If you attempt to update a new, unconfigured device or a device that has just been factory reset, the password will not be accepted.

The reason is the lack of online access to be able to execute the md5 function for the password. Use the password here

a6d82bced638de3def1e9bbb4983225c

This corresponds to the md5 hash from “opendoor”.

OSPI

An update with the OSPi is easy: Log in to your Raspberry PI, go to the “OpenSprinkler firmware” directory and start updater.sh (with ./updater.sh or sudo ./updater.sh)

OPEN SPRINKLER 3 / 3.2 AC / DC

For OpenSprinkler with Ethernet: The firmware update can ONLY be carried out via WLAN (for versions earlier than 2.2.0.105). Disconnect the Ethernet network connection by removing the Ethernet module from the cable and restart the OpenSprinkler by holding B2 and then confirming with B3

Save your settings! At the top left of the menu you can save the settings as a file using “Export configuration”!

Now download the latest firmware from the above link. The file must end with .bin. If it is a .zip, it must be unpacked first.

Click on B1 to find the IP of your OpenSprinkler. Start your web browser and enter:

http://<ipaddress>/update

Where you replace <ipaddress> with the IP.

1. Click “Browse…” and select the firmware file downloaded above.

2. Enter the password for your OpenSprinklers below.

3. Click “Submit” (don’t press Return or Enter! You have to click “Submit”)

4. Watch your OpenSprinkler: After a few seconds, “Rebooting” should appear and OpenSprinkler will reboot.

5. Done. Depending on the firmware version, you may need to read the settings back. You can do this using the “Import configuration” menu at the top left.

 

 

Another tip if the OpenSprinkler no longer boots:

Factory reset: When starting the controller, press and hold B1+B2 until you see “Factory Reset” on the screen. Select “Yes” and then press and hold B3. A hardware reset is triggered and the controller returns to default settings.

        Ok, great, it worked. Now I can log in to the app and have restored my configuration. But when I access the IP in the browser, the page remains without the option to log in. She's just black. What can I do there? I've already cleared cache. Doesn't help either. Neither does any other browser.

        Even if I change the weather service in the app to “DWD” (think it’s supposed to be the German Weather Service), it shows me “errors” in the weather service in the system diagnostics. Restart didn't help. In Weather Service Details, the last response says: Weather Data Request Failed. Is this a bug?

    I tried to install the update today: no chance!
    I have the AC 3.2 with FW 2.2.0 (1)
    When I press submit, nothing happens... I also tried resetting the open sprinkler, same picture. Do you have a tip?

  2. Und wo ist der Vorteil/Nachteil der beiden Anbieter? Gibt es da konkrete Empfehlungen? says:

    Hello, how or where can I see the current installed firmware on OpenSprinkler?
