Controllino Maxi Ethernet based with local home-assistant.io GUI, relay/digital output for dual irrigation control via MQTT.

MQTT command message with 'on' payload command one of the outputs on.

MQTT command message with 'off' payload command one of the outputs off.

Note: My code is based on my other ESP8266 based projects, so there are may be some ESP nameing used.
