Features
Rain Bird 2.0 App Features

  • Advanced Mapping: Map pins turn red when battery is below 30%. Select a mapping pin and access commonly used shortcuts: manual water, edit controller, battery status, controller sharing, change address, Bluetooth status and delete device.
  • Offline Mode: Edit, track, and save desired controller changes in the app, even when out of Bluetooth™ range. Review change log at anytime. Rapid synchronize change log when back on site and in Bluetooth™ range.
  • Controller Sharing: Streamline operations and collaboration with your team. Share secure access of any and all devices with new team members. Keep existing team members up-to-date with on-site controller changes or make offline changes from anywhere and share with a team member on site for synchronization, saving a site visit.
  • Monthly Seasonal Adjust: Seasons change and so should your water schedule. Program adjustment values by month for the entire year in advance, saving not just water but site visits.
  • Cycle & Soak™: Eliminate runoff, a common form of water waste by breaking up the total run time into shorter cycles so the soil has time to soak in the water.
  • Seconds Based Irrigation: Run times go down to 7 seconds allowing one second intervals (7 seconds to 18 hour run times).
  • Calendar Days Off: Have a future event in the park and you want to be sure irrigation doesn’t run? Schedule the day(s) off ahead of time, saving a site visit.
  • Permanent Days Off: Do you always mow on Thursdays? Exclude certain day(s) of the week on a recurring basis, no matter the chosen watering frequency. (Odd, Even and Cyclic)
  • Additional Images: Quickly identify stations and sites via custom imagery.
  • Interstation Delay: Allow a delay between a station turning off and another turning on. This ensures your hydraulics are never compromised.
  • Rain Delay: Is rain coming? Save a site visit, turn the controller off for up to 14 days and then auto-resume irrigation. If rain is expected for more than 14 days set Monthly Seasonal Adjust values to 0%.
  • Pause Active Irrigation: If and when a broken nozzle occurs, simply pause the station, fix the issue and resume right where the irrigation program left off.
  • Search & Filter: Easily find controller(s) right from the home screen. Sort by name, controller type, recently added or last connected. Filter by Bluetooth in range, sync available or low battery.
  • Controller Grouping: For sites with multiple battery-operated controllers, add multiple controllers to a group for organized on-site operations.
  • Quick Status: View all your connected controllers and their most relevant statuses: controller auto, controller off, rain delay, calendar day(s) off, battery life and Bluetooth connection.

 

Controller Features

  • Basic programming includes four independent programs A, B, C and D each with 8 start times per day
    Stations can be assigned to several programs with different watering run times
