[0044] S420, communicating with the gateway device 200 to obtain identity information of the gateway device 200 and each irrigation device 100 in the irrigation network group;

[0045] S430: Obtain a first control instruction, and formulate irrigation plan data corresponding to the irrigation network group according to the first control instruction, wherein the irrigation plan data includes the irrigation time corresponding to each irrigation device 100 and the irrigation sequence of the multiple irrigation devices 100;

[0046] S440: Send the irrigation plan data to the corresponding gateway device 200, and the irrigation network group enters the first irrigation mode. In the first irrigation mode, each irrigation device 100 in the irrigation network group conducts the tributary waterway 112 in the irrigation order, and each irrigation device 100 shuts off the tributary waterway 112 after reaching its respective irrigation time.

The gateway device 200 can upload the identity information of each irrigation device 100 with its own distribution network to the cloud platform. The user can formulate corresponding irrigation strategies for each irrigation device 100 in a targeted manner.

[0048] The user formulates the irrigation plan data corresponding to the irrigation network group through the first control instruction. The irrigation plan data includes the irrigation time corresponding to each irrigation device 100 and the irrigation order of multiple irrigation devices 100. For example, in the irrigation plan data, each irrigation device 100 can be formulated to conduct the branch water channel 112 one by one, the previous irrigation device 100 conducts the branch water channel 112 and maintains the irrigation time before shutting off the branch water channel 112, and then the next irrigation device 100 conducts the branch water channel 112 and maintains the irrigation time before shutting off the branch water channel 112. After all the irrigation devices 100 have been irrigated, the steps of the above first irrigation mode are stopped or repeated, or the first irrigation mode In this embodiment, multiple sprinklers 100 may simultaneously open the branch waterway 112. For example, the first sprinkler 100 may open the branch waterway 112. After the branch waterway 112 of the first sprinkler 100 is closed, the second sprinkler 100 and the third sprinkler 100 may open the branch waterway 112. According to the length of their respective watering times, the second sprinkler 100 and the third sprinkler 100 may close the branch waterway 112 at the same time, or may close the branch waterway 112 one after another, and then the fourth sprinkler 100 may open the branch waterway 112.

[0049] The gateway device 200 is network-bound with each irrigator 100 in the corresponding irrigating string group 160 to form an irrigation network group. The user can communicate with the gateway device 200 through the smart device 300 to control each irrigator 100 paired with the gateway device 200.

[0056] S520: The watering device 100 approaches the gateway device 200 to enter the network distribution communication range of the gateway device 200, and the watering device 100 sends a network distribution request;

[0057] S530: The gateway device 200 receives the network connection request and is bound to the irrigator 100 to form at least part of the irrigating network group, and obtains the identity information of the bound irrigator 100.

[0058] When network configuration is required, the user presses the second button 230 of the gateway device 200, and at the same time presses the first button 150 on each watering device 100 that needs network configuration, and then moves each watering device 100 close to the gateway device 200 in turn to enter the network configuration communication range of the gateway device 200, so that the network configuration request sent by the watering device 100 can be obtained by the gateway device 200. After the irrigation network group is formed, the gateway device 200 obtains the identity information of the watering device 100 that has been networked and bound, so that the control instruction for the corresponding watering device 100 can be matched with the identity information of the watering device 100 and sent by the gateway device 200 to the corresponding watering device 100 to execute the action.

[0061] For the watering device 100 that is conducting the branch waterway 112, the conduction time of the watering device 100 that is conducting the branch waterway 112 is obtained, and the remaining conduction time is calculated according to the watering time and the conduction time;

[0062] The watering schedule table is updated with the remaining on-time.

[0063] In the display interface of the smart device 300 and the cloud platform, an irrigation plan table can be displayed. The irrigation plan table can display the networking status of each irrigation device 100, and can present the irrigation sequence, irrigation time, irrigation status, etc. of each irrigation device 100. In addition, the remaining on-time is calculated based on the on-time and irrigation time of the irrigation device 100 that is conducting the tributary waterway 112, and the irrigation plan table is continuously updated using the remaining on-time. The user can see the remaining on-time of the irrigation device 100 that is conducting the tributary waterway 112 in real time in the irrigation plan table, so as to facilitate flexible control.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, the control method further includes:

[0065] Obtaining a third manipulation instruction, wherein the third manipulation instruction is used to select at least one watering device 100 in the positioning display step;

[0066] In the positioning display step, the selected watering device 100 outputs prompt information.

[0067] A prompt module 180 may also be provided on the first shell 110 of each watering device 100. The first wireless control module 120 is connected to the prompt module 180. The prompt module 180 may include an indicator light or a buzzer, etc. The user can click on one of the watering device 100 icons on the smart device 300 to generate a third control instruction. The third control instruction is sent to the gateway device 200. The gateway device 200 sends the third control instruction so that the prompt module 180 of the clicked watering device 100 outputs prompt information, for example, the indicator light emits a flashing green light, etc.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, there are multiple irrigation network groups, and the smart device 300 is communicatively connected to the gateway devices 200 in the multiple irrigation network groups. A preset time value is set between the smart device 300 sending data to the gateway device 200 in one irrigation network group and sending data to the gateway device 200 in another irrigation network group.

[0069] When the smart device 300 controls the sprinklers 100 of multiple irrigation network groups, it needs to send data to the multiple irrigation network groups. In order to prevent the wireless signal transmission from being too much interfered, the smart device 300 sends the data at intervals, first sending the data to the gateway device 200 in one of the irrigation network groups, and then sending the data to the gateway device 200 in another irrigation network group after a preset time value. Specifically, the preset time value can be set by the design staff, for example, 1s, 2s, etc.

[0070] The above control methods can all be executed by smart devices, cloud platforms, gateway devices and control devices in watering devices. The control devices include memory and processors.
