Hi All

I have a group of irrigation toggles. You can currently turn all on but the water pressure will decrease and it wont work well.

I want to have one irrigation zone on at any given time. So if i have Zone 2 on and it i toggles Zone 3 to turn on then all other zones must switch off. So Zone 1, 2, 4 must toggle off.

How can i achieve this?

Create an input select with the following options:

Zone 1 on
Zone 2 on
Zone 3 on
Zone 4 on
Off

Use an automation to monitor the state of the input select and switch the zones appropriately.

Expose only the input select (not the switches) on your dashboard.

Alternatively create 4 automations, each one monitors a zone switch. If the switch is turned on the actions are to turn the other zones off. This could be combined into one automation if you are familiar with templates.
