7. Troubleshooting
Problem Can’t turn on/off the valve
Inaccurate water flow meter
Possible Factors
Low battery. Impurities in water inlet. Unstable network or delayed response.
Inaccurate statistics due to tilted mounting angle. Low or fluctuating water pressure from the tap.
Timer can’t connect
Unstable WiFi
network. Long distance from the hub. Timer not in pairing state.
-17-
Some Solutions
Replace new batteries. Regularly clean the filter port of impurities to avoid disruptions in use. Wait a while and try again.
The water timer needs to be installed vertically to the ground. It is recommended not installed at an angle to avoid affecting the measurement of water flow data. Normal error range of water flow measurement is ±5%.
Check if the WiFi network devices are working properly. Keep close to hubs and routers when connecting the timer. Re-pair the timer: Press and hold Operation Button until the red light flashes rapidly to indicate pairing. (Or remove the device from the home page and reconnect.)
EN
Problem Hub can’t connect
Plan not executed on time
Possible Factors
Not using 2.4GHz WiFi. Incorrect WiFi password. Distance between sensor and hub is too far.
Water inlet filter is clogged with impurities. Rain Delay is on. In a low power state, the timer goes into a low power protection state and does not execute the schedule. The parameter of irrigation duration/ period is set to null.
Some Solutions
Confirm 2.4GHz WiFi connection. Confirm that the WiFi password you entered is correct. Stay closer to the hub while connecting.
Inlet impurities need to be cleared regularly so that they do not clog up and interfere with irrigation plans. Check if the rain delay parameter is set. Replace fresh batteries. Check that the irrigation duration/period parameter is set.
