Review controller evidence on irrigation zones

Associate a reported controller zone with your documented zone before interpreting map activity.

How to use it

  1. Create the irrigation system, documented zones and map online. Manual plans and water records remain useful without a controller connection.
  2. In Connected Services, review the configured provider’s availability and authorize a supported connection. Ongoing monitoring requires Ark+.
  3. Explicitly associate the linked controller, system and reported vendor zone with the corresponding saved zone. Do not match zones from names alone.
  4. Open the property map and inspect the device source, observation or receipt time, quality and freshness. Reading the map uses cached evidence and does not poll the vendor.
  5. An active-zone identifier does not prove measured water flow or establish that every other zone is off. Disconnected, delayed or unavailable evidence means activity is unknown.
  6. Review saved issues or seasonal inspections and open the shared maintenance follow-up. Check the source, zone/equipment links and schedule before saving; no physical watering action is sent.

Manual irrigation and follow-up records use core plan limits. Ongoing connected monitoring requires Ark+ plus an enabled, authorized provider.
