Hello everyone,
In addition to watering my lawn and bed, I have now also connected my greenhouse. The open sprinkler is located near the pump. From there a permanent pressure line and a control cable go into the greenhouse (approx. 20m) and in the greenhouse I have two solenoid valves and a mechanical water tap. The solenoid valves go to a pressure reducer and from there to the drip lines for the plants. Everything works perfectly in the app and browser. Unfortunately, my wife has a certain acceptance problem with digital operation.
I would now like to install two (mechanical) buttons in the greenhouse, which would then switch on the respective irrigation circuit in the greenhouse for, for example, 10 minutes. The control cable that opens or closes the solenoid valves no longer has any free wires. so that I cannot access the OpenSprinkler via cable. So this would have to be done “smartly” somehow. Unfortunately, I haven't yet found the right way to think about this. Could you possibly capture input via shelly components and then send it to the OpenSprinkler via http or similar? Is there a way to digitally give the OpenSprinkler the command: “Activate circuit 3 for 10 minutes” without having to set up a complete smart home system?
Thank you and best regards
