4.2 Bewässerungsmodi

The timer supports two primary watering modes:

• Dauermodus: Waters for a specified period (e.g., 10 minutes). This mode is highly precise and recommended for low-flow systems like drip irrigation with fewer than 10 emitters.
• Flow Mode (Volume): Waters until a specified volume of water has passed through the timer (e.g., 50 liters). This mode is ideal for lawn sprinklers that require a flow rate greater than 0.2 GPM.

You can program up to 10 customized watering schedules through the app:

1. In the app, navigate to the 'Schedule' section for your water timer.
2. Tap 'Add Schedule' to create a new watering program.
3. Set the start time and select your preferred watering mode (Duration or Flow).
4. Define the duration (1 minute to 24 hours) or volume.
5. Choose the frequency: daily, specific days of the week, or an interval (e.g., every 2 days).
6. Save the schedule. You can enable or disable schedules as needed.

4.4 Smart Weather Alerts & Rain Delay

The app integrates with local weather forecasts to help you conserve water:

• The app will send real-time notifications for expected rain or snow.
• You can activate the 'Rain Delay' feature with a single tap in the app. This will pause scheduled watering for a specified period, up to 30 days.
• This feature prevents overwatering and saves water during natural rainfall.
