System and method for wireless irrigation control with a remote application
First Claim
1. A system for wireless irrigation control with remote application, comprising:
- a wireless network irrigation control module having a self containing housing enclosing;
a processor;
a plurality of independently controllable interactive zone switches for connection to a plurality of remote irrigation devices, each zone switch further structured and arranged to detect a diagnostic state of each irrigation device;
a non-volatile memory coupled to the processor having processor executable instructions to direct operation of each interactive zone switch;
a wireless network component coupled to the processor and the non-volatile memory;
at least one remote application to establish a schedule within the non-volatile memory for operation for each interactive zone switch and to receive the schedule from the non-volatile memory in response to a users desire to review or modify the schedule, the application further permitting direct control of each interactive zone switch.

Abstract
Provided are a system and method for wireless irrigation control with a remote application. The system includes a processor and plurality of interactive zone switches for connection to at least one irrigation device; each zone switch further operable to detect a state of a connected irrigation device. Non-volatile memory is coupled to the processor and provided with executable instructions to direct operation of each interactive zone switch. There is at least one remote application to establish a schedule within the non-volatile memory for operation for each interactive zone switch and to receive the schedule from the non-volatile memory in response to a users desire to review or modify the schedule. A wireless network component is coupled to the processor and the non-volatile memory and is in communication with the remote application to schedule operation of at least one interactive zone switch and at least one irrigation device.
