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.
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
Once you have enabled the [Rain Bird component](/components/rainbird), add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
switch:
- platform: rainbird
switches:
sprinkler_1:
zone: 1
friendly_name: "Front sprinklers"
trigger_time: 10
scan_interval: 10
sprinkler_2:
friendly_name: "Back sprinklers"
zone: 2
trigger_time: 20
scan_interval: 10
```
{% configuration %}
zone:
description: Station zone identifier.
required: true
type: string
friendly_name:
description: Just a friendly name for the station.
required: false
type: string
trigger_time:
description: The default duration to sprinkle the zone.
required: true
type: integer
scan_interval:
description: How fast to refresh the switch.
required: false
type: integer
{% endconfiguration %}
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).
