Great thanks, just to clarify it’s not an Orbit sensor, it’s my old Orbit controller, but this is the sensor: Irritrol Rain Sensor
I found this which I think is explaining it correctly so I’ll give this a try: Rachio Compatibility with Irritrol Wireless Rain Sensor

Will Rachio work with my watering restrictions?

Getting Started Jul 16, 2019
I have an Orbit Bhyve that I hate. I was hoping for a solution where the controller can do smart watering etc but have issues with it. We can only water on even days which is fine, but only between 6am to 10am and 6pm to 10pm. The Orbit lets me set a time restriction but only one, such as no watering...
