This `rainbird` sensor 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 to enable the rain sensor:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: rainbird
monitored_conditions:
- rainsensor
```
Configuration variables:
- **monitored_conditions**: Currently only rainsensor is supported. Returns the sensor level.
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).
