Hi,
I’m actually working on a new App for Royal Gardineer devices on Homey.
At this time, it’s working with this first device :
App has been approved and is already available on Homey App Store.
Other Royal Gardineer devices and technologies will be integrated later. Stay tuned…

Hi all,
Royal Gardineer App is now on live version !
SoPhos
Could you add this Irrigation Controller to Tuya app https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006435648376.html
I think it is the same
Hi Vitalii,
Yes, it seems to be exactly the same. Have you already got one and tested it ?
This App is only for Royal Gardineer devices, if it’s a Royal Gardineer, it’ll work with the App.
If not, I can have a look but with no guarantee.
If you don’t own already one, take a look at the links in the first post of this thread, (Pearl), there might be at the same or even a lower price…

SoPhos
I’ve tested it. It works, thanks a lot
Hi Vitalii,
I took a look at your device interview, I think it’s fully compatible with Royal Gardineer device (maybe the same origin).
I made a new version of Homey Royal Gardineer App, 1.0.4 :

Hi,
could you please publish the data points dp5, dp6 and dp12 in the “Capabilities” (see in last_unknown_value) so that they can be accessed in the flow?
I think dp5 is the flow quantity, dp6 is the flow rate, dp12 = 1 = status valve open, dp12 = 2 = status valve closed.
Imho the water consumption = dp5/dp6 (V= dV/dt).
My zb_product_id is “TS0601”, zb_manufacturer_name= “_TZE200_2wg5qrjy”.
Edit: I got a water meter with a precise Hall sensor to verify the information.
thx
Hi ToM2,
Ok, I’ll take a look at this and add an experimental mode on settings to let you choose to display or not those values because we are not sure of it…

SoPhos
Hi SoPhos,
Update:
On my water meter (analog) started a project (AI on the Edge, jomjol/AI-on-the-edge-device - GitHub) and integrated it into Homey as virtual device.
Currently looks like dp6 div 10 = water flow l/min and dp5 water consumption dp5 div 10 in liters.
Next Update, next week.

Hi ToM2,
I’ve worked on your proposal and added experimental values to the irrigation system.
After trying with your datas, it seems that finaly the right ones are :
So, I made a new test version for Royal Gardineer App you can download here :
Can you test and tell me if it’s correct ?
To activate experimental values : Go to device settings, activate ‘Experimantal values’ and restart App.

Hi Sophos,
great works.
I have a set of test. 1,2,3,4,5 Minutes.
2min
Here is the log from AI:
Values from AI ( consumption at home:

42 l
===============
Are dp5 and dp6 swapped?
Next day I’ ll change the pressure on the faucet.
Regards, Tom2
Hi ToM2,
I’m confused about these meterings…
Maybe you’re right, regarding your tests, DP5 should be Last water consumption.
That’s what I’ve seen on my own device, I tested for 30 minutes to control that consumption is half of hour flow. And if I revert values, it’s nearly the case (122 l consumption in 30 min for 212 l/h flow).
But if I take a look at your screenshots, it’s not really the same !
You’ve got on last screenshot for example, 109 and 10 and always a divider by 10.
What I think is DP5 and DP6 are reversed in this version but for short timer function, values reported are not correct. I already read that on forums discussing of TS0601.
Can you try for a longer time ? I will try for shorter…
Regards,
SoPhos
Hi Sophos,
values are crazy and doesn’t make any sense on my device.
You’ve got on last screenshot for example, 109 and 10 and always a divider by 10
Yes, all my results.
A#
B#
Flow Hall Sensor = 112,24 L
C#
Values from AI ( consumption at home:)
Guess: (988/10)+(98/10)= is near by B or C.
I have a second one ( Gardineer ), tomorrow I will test it.

Tom2
Hi ToM2,
I think DP5 / 10 (for consumption) is the only reliable value.
While browsing HA dedicated forums, DP6 seems to be unused or not reliable on each device of its kind.
So, I published a new test version keeping (DP5 / 10) as consumption but removed DP6 from sensors (still present in settings logs).
As returned consumption by device is not still verified, I also have to keep “Enable experimental values” in settings, uncheked by default.
Regards,
SoPhos
Hi Sophos,
I came to the same conclusion.
dp6 is not usable, I have also been on other forums.
Could we define another parameter to fine tune the devisor/result?
With my Gardineer there is probably a deviation in accuracy of 10%…
Flow Hall Sensor = 32
I think other devices may have a similar problem, caused by different firmware.
Do you have any information on whether the firmware can be updated?
Thx and Regards, Tom
Hi ToM2,
Could we define another parameter to fine tune the devisor/result?
This is a good idea, did it in the new test version (1.1.4), in the new “Experimental settings” section on settings.

Hi Serge,
I own a device very similar to the Royal Gardener valve, at least externally but rebranded SasWell, and available here. I tried to add it in Homey using your app but it is not recognized and so it is just installed as a generic Zigbee device which, of course, doesn’t work.
I was wondering if there is a chance that you app could support it?
Manufacter ID is : _TZE204_qtnjuoae and Product ID is : TS0601.
Thanks and regards,
Roger
Hi Roger_Stradiot,
I made a new 1.1.5 test version to integrate Manufacter ID _TZE204_qtnjuoae and Product ID TS0601.
Can you test it and tell me if it’s Ok ?
Regards,
SoPhos
Hi Serge,
What a very quick fix! It works as expected. I didn’t try the consumption feature yet but anyway I am already happy to be able to control the valve via Homey.
Thanks a lot,
Roger
