Abstract
A water irrigation system may include a computer system, a sensing unit, an irrigation controller, and/or a water delivery system. The computer system may include an infrared receiver. An operator may use a portable device with an infrared transmitter to provide a signal to the infrared receiver of the computer system. The signal may include instructions for the water irrigation system. The computer system may control irrigation of a zone to be irrigated at least partially based on the infrared signal from the portable device. A method of controlling irrigation may include allowing an infrared receiver of a computer system to receive infrared output from a portable device and controlling irrigation of a zone to be irrigated at least partially based on the infrared output. The method may include controlling irrigation of a zone to be irrigated at least partially based on the infrared output received from the portable device.
