Hello

I just got my new smart controller IIC-400. I’m trying to check status of rain sensor in the app to see if it tells whether the sensor is activated (such as after raining and the controller won’t fire) or if the controller is in ready mode (i.e. the rain sensor is dried up and no longer activated). Is there any section of the app that show this information.

Thank you.

Regards,

Yu

Sorry, there’s no record of rain sensor activation.  
Please check the history to see if scheduled irrigation was automatically skipped during rain. If yes, this indicates the rain sensor is functioning correctly.

I noticed the iic400 has an indicator light on the unit that will light up in red when it’s raining. Couldn’t you put on the app the status of this indicator light such as on or off?

I have confirmed with the engineering team that, unfortunately, the IIC-400-WIFI does not have a rain sensor status indicator in the app 😢.
