How this automation works
Automatically stop watering with your Rachio Irrigation Controller when a selected Hubitat device turns on. This Applet triggers each time the Hubitat device powers on and sends a stop command to all watering zones. Ideal for preventing overwatering when a condition or smart device signals to pause irrigation.
