Control valve with sensor input

[Anonymous]

Hello

I bought the Openspinkler 3.0 AC irrigation computer (according to app firmw 2.1.9(2) hardw 3.2 AC) from you in December and am very happy with it. In order to operate the irrigation even better, it would be great to switch a valve via a sensor and time-controlled.

By this I mean when a relay (make or break contact depending on what is required) switches at the sensor input, the valve also opens and when the relay switches off again, the valve also closes.

If I can also operate the same valve in a time-controlled manner it would be perfect. You could perhaps connect the valve to two switching ports. One with the sensor and one with the time control if nothing happens that there is 24v at the output that is not switched.

Is such an operation possible? What do I have to set there?

Hello,

You can use a sensor input to start a program - it would then run time-controlled.

Simply set it to type “Program” in the settings/sensors. The first sensor starts the first program.

Hello

Is it possible to open a valve with the sensor input and when the sensor switches off the valve also closes.

That actually doesn't work. Here you would then have to use a normal relay, which switches the solenoid valve.

OpenSprinkler is designed for time-controlled switching of the solenoid valves. Without this, you couldn’t even create an “irrigation plan”.
