Irrigation sensor = 0

[liouma]

What happened?

I have a drip watering system connected on a zigbee valve and I just need to calcultate once per day the time to open the valve. I have a weather station in the garden collecting many parameters but not evapotranspiration, so I expect it to be calculated by smart irrigation. The weather forecast is pretty reliable on 48h.

I configured the integration as described bellow and irrigation sensor stay to 0 min.

How to reproduce

My config:

General: Weather data automatic : yes Update sensorrs every : 1 hour delay : 0

Automatic time calculation per zone : Yes at: 17:55

Automatic suppression of weather data: Yes at 23:59

Continuous updates for sensors (experimental) : No

ZONES (only one) As it's a drip irrigation system on the feet of the plants I don't have a big area but I estimeted it to 15m² and I added a multiplier x10 I'm not sure about the bucket settings. Is it automatic? should I fill it?

MODULES

SENSOR GROUPS (only one): Dew point: something strange happened here many times. When I load the page instead of the full name of the sensor, there is just "senso". I write the full name of the sensor, it seem ok. When I come back the next day there is only "senso". Evapotranspiration: NONE because I don't have a sensor, I guess it will be calcultated. Here is my full settings:

Relevant log output

I went on the interface registering the logs. Modified many times the field dew point with value : sensor.station_meteo_dew_point
Everytime I refresh the value is "senso".
I stopped registering the logs and uploaded the file.

Which version are you running?

v2024.7.5

Diagnostics file

• [X] I have attached a diagnostics file

Additional information

I'll be happy to provide any useful additional information

I deleted the sensor group and managed to recreate it. All values seem OK. I hope this will work better

it's weird. your pressure and dewpoint sensors are / were incorrect. what are the entity names for these? I wonder if there is a encoding issue since you are using a french install (?).

[liouma]

Pressure sensor: name "Pression" sensor.station_meteo_pression

Dew point: name: "Station météo Dew point" sensor.station_meteo_dew_point

There is the letter 'é' in the second, but I have hundreds of sensors using this letter without problem.

EDIT: other sensors like rain have the same accent (ie "Station météo rain") and seem to work correctly.

[jeroenterheerdt]

Yeah, that weird. Is there any chance you can give me the full list of sensors you want to use so I can mimick your install and try to find a bug?

[liouma]

I kept playing with the settings. Now I have "sensor group2" that seem fully operational and it's confirmed as it just rendered a sensor = 3 427s The bucket has been set to -1,5. Is it normal ?

As I destroyed the non working sensor groups, I'm sorry but I won't be able to give you more elements about the bug. I'll check tomorow what's happening and let you know if it work or not.

Glad to hear it's working now, please keep me posted. If you had a hot day without precipitation a - 1.5mm bucket is not extreme so I'd say it works as expected now. I'll close the bug. Feel free to reopen if the issue returns.
