I'm using one to control outside LV lighting and water feature, one to control inside LV cabinet and soffit lighting, and one is spare. They require a session connection so ISY doesn't control them directly but a little daemon on my Raspberry Pi serves as a gateway for both the ISY and the iRule apps on my devices.Īs a bonus the boards contain a mini-controller that allows you to set up schedules for each relay making them great for stand-alone irrigation control. Powered by 5V and have wired and wi-fi capability. They are not rail mounted and measure 4.5" x 5". I just bought several ethernet-controlled relay boards from aliExpress at about $45 each (HLK-SW16). So, the question at the end of this is Will the ISY work with the Spruce Controller, and if not, what is my alternative? Of its unique technology in moister sensesing but I am not very motivated to, Now, I would love to purchase the Spruce Controller with all There will be NO support for Insteon devices. Meanwhile, over here at Smarthings, they’re saying that Is a device over at Plaid Systems / EVE/ Spruce Irrigation controller that for Now, I have to now look at the Smarthings Hub because there System doesn’t work, in fact it works very well. Not because I want something different or the current

I currently have a lot of Insteon devices, mostly switches, and Hello, Sorry to hitch off of this but it seems related to me dilemma that I posted on the SmartThings Blog:

I'm not sure about a REST interface but they have all the source code available. The price comes out to the same, and it has a web/android/apple app. They make several versions, RPI is the one I looked at, but they also make a stand alone version that does not require the RPI. You can set up any web page on the PI for instance and reference that, or shoot REST commands directly from ISY to the controller. I've not read too much into their API but it does seem rather straight forward. The integration with ISY via the REST Api would really be the only time consuming part, maybe. The controller can be accessed from the web by default. Then, they have apps for all major OSs (Android, Apple, Windows, ectra).

They have an SD card you can burn and install on your PI, then fire the system up. This brings your setup to $335 for 56 zones or ~$6 per zone.

$155 for 3 Expansion Boards (adds 48 zones, bringing your total to 56) $80 for an OpenSprinkler Pi (Sprinkler Extension for the RaspberryPi) 8 Zones $15 ish for a 24vdc box if your sprinklers don't already have one, I assume they do. $50-$100 for a Raspberry PI and accessories (case, power, USB WiFi, toys). Your programs would just use the network resources as if it was a device. ISY would use the network resources to send those commands.

Essentially, you would set up the REST api to respond to start and stop commands. The advantage here is the REST api that ISY can interact with. You would need to do some more investigation, but it really simply comes down to this for being cheap.Ī RaspberryPi/Adreno with a sprinkler expansion board and programming. Maybe you could take this in steps and hit the easy (garage) unit first? Have a look at the capabilities of your current controller. Sorry, but I'm getting overly cautious as the years advance. Add to the fact that your backyard controllers are outside (distance?) and I would be leery of jumping into a new controller that "requires" management via the ISY. With a Ezflora, you will need programs to manage each of those zones. With 33 zones, you have a very elaborate system. This doesn't allow for tailored run times, but works well for my simple 6 zone system. The ISY turns the IOLinc on for days when watering is required. The controller is programmed to water every day. I use this with my current Hunter controller. On the minimalist side, it may be possible to simply use an IOLinc across the rain sensor input terminals to "inhibit" watering. This won't give you remote capability, but it will tailor watering to the time of year (historical) and actual daily conditions (sensor). At $110 per CL-100 you could outfit each of your controllers for far less than changing over to the ezflora. One of these includes historical data for your area as well at weather monitoring (CL-100).

If your model ends in a "-R", there are wireless sensors that can be added as well. The RD1200's are rather nice controllers.
