So I think what should work beautifully is the following: Run a cron job that monitors evapotranspiration and changes the %watering via an api call. So if the %watering is changed manually (but not by a weather adjustment method) the watering times are still adjusted if the value is not 100%. Regardless the switch: use weather adjustment means that a program takes the %watering into account. The Zimmerman is simply changing in the end in a sophisticated way the value and does this just before the start of a water event. Okay I think I have an idea how to do that.įirst I needed to understand how the %watering actually works. Can you let me know your setting, meaning when do you water and what are your humidity, temp and rainfall setting and sensitivities. YOu mentioned earlier that you use the Zimmerman algorithm. There is a getweather function, but still not to sure how to realign it to another script. As I said I still have not found a good way to intercept/replace the watering calculation. My idea is to have a cron job running that download the bom table once a day (or every hour) and then use it to calculate the %watering. I try to find the bit in the code where it updates the watering % just before it runs the program. I am just struggling how to “intercept” the water level request. I think even the current table of bom with Eto would be a great improvement. ![]() so it does not make sense to water in the morning using it with the current setting. And also thanks a lot for the explanation on the Zimmerman. Thanks for the kind offer, happy to come over at some stage when I am around. Local time shown correct in app but red line in preview lags a couple of hours. Not sure why the log file on 7 stations would ever exceed 1MB over 7 days. Log retrieval takes a long time or fails, hopefully new release increasing log space from 1MB to 3MB helps. ![]() Hoping firmware update will fix a few glitches with log display failing when more than 2 days selected: Would only need to download once a day at 1am.
