MIYO Documentation
Welcome to the MIYO documentation. Here you’ll find information about the smart irrigation system, its devices, setup, and advanced topics such as LoRaWAN and firmware updates.
What is MIYO?
MIYO is a wireless, solar-powered irrigation system for gardens, patios, raised beds, and balconies. Unlike purely time-based irrigation controllers, MIYO combines soil moisture measurement, weather data, and an evapotranspiration model to irrigate only when plants really need it.
This allows MIYO to save up to 50% water, protect soil and plants from overwatering, and be conveniently controlled via the app—even when you’re away.
System Setup
A MIYO system typically consists of:
- Cube – the central unit with internet connectivity, control, and statistics (Cube series)
- Sensor – measures soil moisture, temperature, and brightness
- Valves – open and close the water flow automatically or manually
Sensors and valves are solar-powered and wirelessly connected—no cables in the garden or battery changes are required.
Two Product Lines—One App
| Series | Range | Control |
|---|---|---|
| Cube series | approx. 100–200 m | MIYO Cube on site |
| LoRaWAN series | up to approx. 10 km | LoRaWAN gateway / cloud |
Both series can be controlled in the MIYO app.
