Water Valve set schedule about esp-homekit-devices

Sorry, but HomeKit specs only provide to set duration. But if you want to set schedule, you can use an AppleTV or iPad as accessory hub, and you can create an automatization. I use that with a Sonoff Basic and a 220VAC electro valve.

I see, that’s what I feared. That’s the solution I adopted. I created two scenes from Elgato Eve App. One for setting the default time duration to 15 minutes at 6:59 and one to start the irrigation at 7:00. It is a workaround though. I hope they’ll improve it soon. Thanks again.

You can set the default time directly in accessory. That time is saved in flash memory.

Schedule implementation like Elgato accessory is very hard, for example, esp8266 has not a clock for date/time.

Yes but unfortunately it always gets replaced by the latest value I used. I prefer to set it to the value I need it to be in the morning.

I see there are ways of setting date/time actually. E.g.: http://pedrominatel.com.br/en/esp8266-en/date-and-time-on-esp8266-using-ntp/
