Abstract
A monitoring system for an irrigation system is presented. The irrigation system includes a movable end gun operatively associated with a portion of the irrigation system. The monitoring system includes a sensor configured to generate an electrical signal indicative of movement and/or positioning of the movable end gun relative to the portion of the irrigation system over time, a processor, and a memory. The memory includes instructions stored thereon, which when executed by the processor cause the system to: receive the generated electrical signal, determine whether the movable end gun, or one or more components thereof, requires maintenance based on the electrical signal, and determine when the movable end gun is in an on and/or off trigger state based on the electrical signal.
