The `rainmachine` binary sensor platform allows you to view crucial sensor data
within a [RainMachine smart Wi-Fi sprinkler controller](http://www.rainmachine.com/).

<p class='note'>
You must have the [RainMachine component](https://www.home-assistant.io/components/rainmachine/)
configured to use this platform. After configuring that component, binary
sensors automatically appear.
