For a few days now there have been increasing requests that... OSPi would no longer switch the outputs. The reason for this is the changes in the Linux kernel, which simply removed support for the Raspi-GPIO module. And that's exactly what you need OpenSprinkler-OSPiin order to be able to switch the GPIOs. All Raspberry PI systems that use the kernel [...] are affected.
With the new firmware 2.3.1(150), LoRaWan, NB-IOT and other external sensors can now also be integrated. However, the prerequisite is that they hand over their sensor data to an MQTT broker, OpenSprinkler can then subscribe to this as sensor data. The sensor is integrated with its “topic” and a text/JSON filter. The irrigation controller can then use this value. This is how it works […]

You have yours OpenSprinkler reactivated and now want to adjust the programs, but the menu is empty or cannot be opened? Then you probably gave a beta firmware version from last year.

There are no clear specifications or guidelines on how to implement dynamic weather control. In principle, that is OpenSprinkler just the tool, you have to work. That means trying until it fits. Up to now there was a good possibility to dynamically implement a weather-dependent control with the weather service and the adjustment type “carpenter” or “evapotranspiration”. Due to the […]
