That dropdown option is disabled. I have tried enabling NTP and disabling but I still cannot change the timezone. I have set the location as west coast, but it forces timezone -5 which is east coast.The time is calculated using two pieces of information: the NTP time (which is UTC+0 time) and the time zone (this is obtained from the opensprinkler weather server, which calculates your time zone using your location). If you export your configurations to a .json file, and open the file, there is a variable called “tz”, which is the time zone.Mar 29, 2020 · Firmware tutorial video is available at www.opensprinkler.com . After the controller is powered on and establishes the WiFi connection, you can find out its client IP address on the LCD by clicking button B1. Also, the OpenSprinkler mobile app can automatically scan your local network to discover OpenSprinkler’s IP address.This way, if the WiFi signal is lost, the remote station will not remain on for more than 2 minutes, to avoid it being left on indefinitely. As a result, if you try to read the remaining water time from the remote station, it won’t be more than 2 minutes. The exception is when the ‘special station auto-refresh’ is turned off.Jan 6, 2021 · Hello, I have created a HW/SW variant from OpenSprinkler based on the ESP32-WROOM module and including a Lora SX1262 module (long range).
