Hi,

I have my sprinkler system on a 30 min timer. Worked for years without any issues.

Last night I turned it on only to find out it was still running this morning.

I turned it off from my Home Menu on the keypad so I must assume that the electronics work.

Where should I look for a solution ? System reset ?

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

I assume it is controlled by switching an output on and off
Perhaps there was an interruption or surge which caused the relay to turn on

Or someone else turned it on after it came on

It is difficult to identify the exact reason

I suggest getting the timer to switch off the sprinkler again after another delay say 30 minutes so that in normal cases it has no effect but if the sprinkler is still on aftyer another 30 minutes, Comfort switches it off again

Hi,

I like that solution.:D

Would implement in other critical timer applications as well.

Thanks
