Hose Timer says No Flow Detected

I received two notifications that my Hose Timer did not detect flow, but upon looking at it, all the baskets attached to the drip system it’s connected to were still watered.

I also did a “quick run” and it said no flow detected yet the water was flowing fine through the lines and connected faucet.

Think this started right after the latest firmware update.

Both firmware versions show: 6.0.15

I have 5 hose timers; at least 2, maybe 3 exhibit this exact behavior. Watering is fine, so I just ignore it, but it would be nice if I could trust the no flow warnings to know there was actually a problem.

Thanks for the feedback @Onyxdragun and @johnny2678

Ill have the engineering review and let you know what they find out.

I am having the same issue - also believe it started after the firmware update.

The team is looking into possible solutions. I don’t believe it was introduced with the new firmware but some other issue the team is looking into. Thank you for reporting!

Same situation with a drip line for a raised garden. Waters fine but warns no flow detected.

Thank you @LawnLarry . The engineering team is working through how to best solve for these issues.

If the firmware team needs a Guinea pig I can help out and run it on my device (Been a FW dev for 10yrs)

I have this same problem. Will you notify me when there is a fix?

Having the same issue.

Same issue for one of two valves with the 6.0.15 FW. Flowrate is 1.3 from according to my Flume water meter. Please advise with a fix. Remove and reinstall batteries?

Same issue. 1 of the 3 I have give me no flow notification but flows fine. I have tried toggle the setting and reboot of the hub and power cycle of the flow meter. Same result.

Same issue on one of two new hose timers. Both hub and both timers just updated the firmware. Hope this gets fixed soon–we’re going on vacation and it’ll make me nervous to see that something may not have watered.

I have the same issue. I have 5 hose controller on 3 hubs all installed back in June. one exhibited immediately (but water flowed so I ignored it) and I installed the update last month and saw no change in this. please let me know when you fix it…

Hello, Franz. Any updates on this?

Same issue, no flow detection, but there is water coming out

I have the same problem on my new Hose timer. Upgraded firmware right out of the box, so I don’t know if it worked with old firmware.

Water flowing but “no flow detection”

I have the same “no flow detected” message and there is flow when I check the device. This is a pool filler and it would be nice to have confidence in the accuracy of the notice. Please help.

Same issue here. Installed 2 timers. One always warns “No Flow,” even though it appears to work normally.
