Compatiable Controllers

Any controller that supports the RainBird LNK WiFi Module should be compatible. This includes:

• ESP-Me
• ESP-TM2
• ESP-RZXe
• ESP-ME3

Known Limitations

• Using the RainBird app while the plugin is running can cause connectivity issues.
• The RainBird LNK WiFi Module may not support "Band Steering" and WiFi Channel 13. Try not using these on your router if you are having connectivity issues.
• Some models do not yet have support for displaying the time remaining. If its not working for your model please log a GitHub issue and we will try to add it with your help.
