MQTT · Auto-Discovery

Works seamlessly with

Home Assistant MQTT

Connect Sprinqua to your MQTT broker and all irrigation zones appear automatically in Home Assistant as switches — no manual configuration required.

  • ✓ MQTT auto-discovery for all zones as switch entities
  • ✓ Mode selector entity — switch between Standalone and Home Assistant Managed directly from HA
  • ✓ In HA-Managed mode, internal schedules pause and HA takes full control via MQTT commands
  • ✓ All activations triggered by HA are logged in history with an MQTT tag

# Topics published by Sprinqua

# Commands accepted by Sprinqua
