Controller & Zone Setup

 1. Zone Setup

Follow these steps to begin setting up your irrigation zones:

a. Select Zones
Choose how many zones you want to set up (Minimum 1, Maximum 8).

b. Scan QR Code
Scan the QR code printed on your SoilDrops controller to pair it with the app.

💡 Note: If the controller isn’t detected, press and hold the reset button for 5–7 seconds until the 3rd and 4th LEDs start flashing. Then retry scanning the controller.

 2. Controller Configuration

  1. a. Controller Info Screen
    Once paired, your controller will automatically enter AP (Access Point) mode and connect to the app via Wi-Fi.

  2. b. Select Wi-Fi Network
    Choose your home or farm Wi-Fi and enter the password to establish the connection.

  3. c. Enter Address
    Add your current location using GPS or manual address entry.

  4. d. Auto-Watering Time
    After connecting, set your preferred watering time and watering days to automate the schedule.

💡 Tip: Keep the controller near your Wi-Fi router during setup for a stable and fast connection.
