Watering system (one pump)

arduino

Although the PCB is suitable to drive two pumps, I needed only one. So I developed the code to drive only pump 1. Obviously you can modify the code to drive both pumps with different operational times. You can also extend scheduling selections using pins 7 and 8 of the DIP switch, that I didn't use yet. In the header you will find the schedule table.
