Sensor Compatibility

Use the sensors you already own

Agrinodes can configure and integrate almost every farming sensor on the market. Search your exact brand and model in our Supported Sensors directory. If it is already listed, you can use it straight away. If not, submit a sensor request and we can usually configure it within up to a week.

Will your sensors work with Agrinodes?

Relay Control

Control anything relay-driven

If it can be switched on or off with a relay, Agrinodes can control it — from basic solenoid valves to complex greenhouse systems.

Solenoid Valves
Pumps
Fans
Heaters
Grow Lights
Humidifiers
Blinds
Misting

Remote Monitoring & Control

See everything. Control everything.

Growers save an average of 2 hours per day by replacing manual inspections with real-time visibility and remote control from a single app.

Before

  • 6:00 AM — Walk Block A, check sensor #1 manually
  • 6:30 AM — Drive to Block B, inspect flow meter
  • 7:00 AM — Adjust irrigation timer by hand at the shed
  • 7:30 AM — Drive back, hope nothing changed while you were gone

After

  • 6:00 AM — Open app from bed, all 12 blocks green
  • EC stable overnight across every zone
  • Safeguard caught a pressure drop at 2 AM — auto-closed valve
  • Adjust tomorrow’s schedule from the couch in 30 seconds

Everything in one app

Bluetooth Setup

Install and configure devices from your phone via BLE pairing. No technician, no wiring.

Live Farm Map

A digital property map showing live sensor readings, valve states, and schedule status in real time.

Remote Actuation

Control valves, pumps, and greenhouse hardware from anywhere in the world — instantly.

Irrigation Scheduling

Create and manage multiple irrigation schedules across zones and crop blocks.

Offline BLE Control

Internet goes down? The Gateway auto-switches to Bluetooth mode within 15 seconds. Control valves, read sensors, and manage schedules directly from your phone — no WiFi needed.

Safeguard Alerts

Threshold-based rules for any parameter. Get notified the moment conditions drift out of range.

Event Tracking

Every command, device action, and safeguard incident is logged — full operational audit trail.

What happens when the internet drops?

Bluetooth fail-safe keeps you in control

Farmers' #1 concern about IoT: “What if my internet goes down and I can't control my irrigation?” Agrinodes has a built-in fail-safe that switches to direct Bluetooth control automatically.

Gateway detects WiFi/cloud loss within 15 seconds
Automatically starts Bluetooth advertising
Open your phone — connect directly via BLE
Full control: open/close valves, start/stop pumps
Read live sensor data from gateway and mesh nodes
Toggle irrigation schedules on or off
Valve safety: auto-close timer on every open command (max 2 hours)
Internet returns — BLE hands back to cloud seamlessly

Crop Protection

Protects your crop while you sleep

Overnight failures cause the most damage because nobody is watching. Agrinodes safeguards monitor 24/7 and act autonomously when thresholds are breached — before you even wake up.

Irrigation Flow
  • No flow during active irrigation
  • Flow outside min/max bounds
  • Unexpected flow when off
  • Insufficient flow after pump start
Soil Moisture
  • Soil too wet before irrigation
  • Moisture not rising during irrigation
Electrical Conductivity
  • EC too high during irrigation — salt risk
  • Escalates to CRITICAL if >10% over threshold
Pressure & Tank Level
  • Pressure too high with no flow — blockage
  • Pressure too low — supply issue
  • Tank below minimum — prevents dry-run

Incident Lifecycle

Triggered → Acknowledged → Resolved

Triggered

Safeguard fires, incident opens. If a critical alarm, your configured action plan executes automatically — stop the zone, close a valve, kill the pump, or disable schedules.

Acknowledged

Grower reviews captured evidence — threshold vs. observed value, timestamp, and operational context. Each action-plan step is confirmed by the device before advancing.

Resolved

Conditions return within safe bounds for a sustained recovery window. Incident closes, system resumes normal operation.

Context

Better Crop Outcomes

Safeguards working around the clock

Prevent overwatering and root damage

VWC safeguards stop irrigation when soil is already saturated — protecting roots from anaerobic conditions.

Catch pipe failures the moment they happen

Flow and pressure monitoring detects blockages, pipe breaks, or pump failures in real time.

Manage salinity before it becomes stress

EC safeguards alert before salt levels accumulate to crop-damaging concentrations.

Configurable response for every situation

Set each safeguard to critical alarm, warning, or advisory. Critical alarms trigger multi-step action plans.

Accurate readings, accurate thresholds

Soil-specific calibration means safeguards trigger on real conditions — not sensor artefacts.

Severity levels

Advisory

Informational alert — logged and visible in the app. No automated action taken.

Warning

Conditions drifting out of range. Push notification sent. Grower should investigate soon.

Critical Alarm

Immediate risk to crop or infrastructure. Action plan executes automatically — stop zone, close valve, kill pump.

DIY Setup

Set up yourself. No wires. No electrician.

Typical precision-ag installs cost $5,000+ and require a technician. Agrinodes is fully self-install — solar powered, wireless, and ready in under 30 minutes.

1

Plug in the Gateway

Standard GPO power outlet. Connects to your Wi-Fi network in seconds.

2

Open the app

Download the Agrinodes app, create your account, and log in.

3

Pair via Bluetooth

BLE provisioning walks you through device setup and network configuration.

4

Place Node in field

Solar panel facing up, connect your sensors. No wiring, no trenching.

5

You’re live

Data flows instantly. Map populates. Remote control available from anywhere.

Same easy setup, any sensor

Whether you plug in a $20 analogue soil stick or a $2,000 industrial SDI-12 probe, the install process is the same once that exact model is configured in Agrinodes. Check the Supported Sensors search first. If your model is not listed yet, we can usually configure it within up to a week.

Fertigation integration

Agrinodes is building native support for water-driven fertigation injectors — bringing automated nutrient delivery into the same platform you already use for irrigation control, sensor monitoring, and safeguarding.

Running fertigation manually? Adjusting injector ratios by gut feel? Hoping the EC doesn't spike overnight?

Automated nutrient dosing tied to irrigation schedules
Real-time EC feedback loop adjusts concentration automatically
Same safeguard engine protects against over-dosing

Fertigation Programming

Create nutrient dose schedules tied directly to your irrigation windows — run precise ratios at defined times without manual intervention.

EC-Linked Dosing Control

Pair live EC sensor readings with injector control to automatically adjust nutrient concentration in real time and hold your target EC.

Safeguard-Integrated

Fertigation runs are governed by the same safeguard engine — EC, flow, and pressure anomalies can pause or halt dosing automatically.

Planned compatible injector units

Water-powered proportional injectors

D3 Green LineD6 Green LineD9 Green LineD20 Green Line
