An ioBroker adapter for Rain Bird with LNK WiFi adapter. This project has no affiliation with Rain Bird.
Based on the python library "pyrainbird" from https://github.com/jbarrancos/pyrainbird and completely ported to NodeJS. The adapter makes a direct connection to the device through WiFi connection and is not using the Rain Bird cloud service.

Credits
This adapter would not have been possible without the great work of Marius Burkard [email protected], who previous releases of this adapter.
IQ4 Cloud devices
Because the LNK device has a limit of one connection simultaniously you need to disconnet it from the IQ4 cloud to respond properly. To accomplish that you need a firewall which will drop for example the whole traffic to the Internet only for you LNK IP address. After that you can connect with this adapter as expected.
