Smart Program Seems to Start and Stop Many Times in a Row

Hi, I'm seeing a kind of strange behavior wherein the Smart Program seems to start and stop many times in a row during a watering cycle:

 

It only seems to happen on some days, as shown in the screenshot, but it did also happen two other nights earlier this week.  In the Watering Schedule calendar, it will just show, for example, that it plans to water from 02:00-02:16.

Any idea what could be the cause of this?  The zone is set to Smart Program mode with an 80% adjustment.

  This happens when there's a temporarily interruption of the Wi-Fi connection during the watering event.
  This won't affect the actual watering but will display watering task into small pieces.

  We will resolve this issue in the future release.
  
  Best Regards,
  Joseph

  Hi Joseph, thanks for the info.  I'll keep an eye on it and see if it keeps getting disconnected from wifi.

  Having same issues. Start-stop during watering periods. No any loss of WiFi connection

  I discovered that my Yardian was running a relatively old firmware release that didn't yet support OTA updates.  I updated it a few days ago and have not seen this issue again yet.  I'll send an update if I do, but I think the issue might be resolved by updating.

  Thanks Jared. Yes, it has been solved in firmware version 6.6.0.
