This `rainbird` switch platform allows interacting with [LNK WiFi](http://www.rainbird.com/landscape/products/controllers/LNK-WiFi.htm) module of the Rain Bird Irrigation system in Home Assistant.
Once you have enabled the [Rain Bird component](/components/rainbird), add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
switch:
sprinkler_1:
zone: 1
friendly_name: "Front sprinklers"
trigger_time: 20
scan_interval: 10
sprinkler_2:
friendly_name: "Back sprinklers"
zone: 2
trigger_time: 20
scan_interval: 10
```
Configuration variables:
- **zone** (*Required*): Station zone identifier.
- **friendly_name** (*Optional*): Just a friendly name for the station.
- **trigger_time** (*Required*): The default duration to sprinkle the zone.
- **scan_interval** (*Optional*): How fast to refresh the switch.
Please note that due to the implementation of the API within the LNK Module, there is a concurrency issue. For example, the Rain Bird app will give connection issues (like already a connection active).
