3. Communication

3.1. DHCP from ethernet

3.2. I need to learn A LOT about this stuff

3.2.1. Future versions need to communicate with each other to control irrigations

4. SensorInterface

4.1. Sensor5TEInterfaceID

4.1.1. TTL Activation Interval

4.1.1.1. User Modifyable

4.1.2. TTL Interpretation

4.1.2.1. VWC

4.1.2.1.1. Interpreted as 100%

4.1.2.2. EC

4.1.3. Sensor Data Varification

4.2. There will be 4 of these

5. Data Storage

5.1. AllReadsRecorded

5.1.1. Truncate to restricted amount of memory discarding oldest values

5.1.2. I think I can get away with format float

5.2. ArrayOfThreeReads

5.2.1. Most Recent 3 VWC Reads

5.2.2. Most Recent 3 EC Reads

5.2.3. Most Recent 3 Temperature Reads

5.3. MeanOfThreeReads

5.3.1. Mean of most recent 3 VWC reads

5.3.2. Mean of most recent 3 EC reads

5.3.3. Mean of most recent 3 temperature reads

5.3.4. this generates "current" conditions

5.4. ArrayOfWeek

5.4.1. All VWC reads in the past 7 days

5.4.2. All EC reads in the past 7 days

5.4.3. All Temperature reads in the past 7 days

5.5. MeanOfWeek

5.5.1. Mean of all VWC reads in the past 7 days

5.5.2. Mean of all EC reads in the past 7 days

5.5.3. Mean of all Temperature reads in the past 7 days

5.6. MinimumTemperaturePast24Hours

5.7. generate array duration which matches reporting interval at time of report

6. RelayInterface

6.1. SingleRelayInterfaceID

6.1.1. used to control irrigation cycles based on VWC and EC.

6.1.2. will not be included in 1.0

6.1.3. RelayOpen

6.1.3.1. Relay will be opened to allow clear water in if the mean average of all three reads is higher than the maxgood for each crop

6.1.4. RelayClosed

6.1.4.1. Relay will be closed to allow fertilizer in if the mean average of all three reads is lower than the mingood for each crop

6.2. The other option is a 16 relay interface

6.3. SixteenRelayInterfaceID

6.3.1. this interface would control all irrigation cycles using the imput from the VWC and EC to determine duration, frequency, and irrigation type.
