Orbit 57915 B-hyve 4-Zone 屋内スマートスプリンクラーコントローラー

This is a great controller. Wi-Fi internet connection was easy. Programming was fairly easy. I was able to take a photo to ID each station. From there it is so easy to vary time and duration and test whatever station you want to. I purchased a second item after my initial purchase.

Funcionó muy bien para regar 3 jardines con una bomba centrífuga. El programador, configurado previamente con la app b-hyve en el celular, activa la bomba a través de sus terminales pump y com que dan los 24 voltios que activan la bobina de un relay o contactor que conecta la corriente de 127 voltios a la bomba. Hay que tener cuidado con los días que supuestamente va a llover porque el programador no se activa, según para ahorrar agua, entonces en la aplicación hay que deshabilitar está función o activar el riego manualmente si no llueve.

I have purchased this product to replace an old Orbit 1024 controller. The connection was straight forward. One to one connection, as my old controller, 1 wire per zone and the common wire. With an additional pair for the power which is ac, so there is no positive or negative to worry about. I would have liked to use my old transformer as the wires were already nicely anchored along the wall but the old transformer was a 26vac 600ma while the new one is 24vac 750ma. Close but to avoid potential issues with the wifi module, I have replaced the old transformer. The programming was simple because it uses similar principles as my old controller. With the ABCD groups and the Zones. If I hadn’t seen this on my old controller, I presume I would have had to look up programming instructions. Seeing other reviews (which are old and maybe outdated) who report issues with rain delays and smart watering, I have disabled all these features for now. My primary goal was to be able to manually force watering remotely. So for now all went well, setup was good, it used Bluetooth to my phone app to get the wifi setup. And first night of scheduling worked as expected. It is highly customizable as for even / odds / selectable week days / multiple watering schedules on same day. My only concern so far is that the logo on the controller which is illuminated by an LED seems to have a very slight flicker. This is barely noticeable unless you stare at it from close (yes i did that). This is not a problem, but I wonder if it hides an issue waiting to emerge. I will do an update if anything else comes up.

Fácil instalar, hasta el momento me ha funcionado de maravilla

I purchased this timer over 4 years ago and it has worked flawlessly. The app allows you control all functions remotely. It also eliminates the need for a rain sensor since you can adjust the watering to coincide with anticipated rainfall. This feature is highly adjustable. Overall very reliable and I highly recommend this product. I hope this review was helpful.
