The Sentinel 2 Control Box can be secured to a wall using an
optional bracket, shown opposite.
Ensure the wall and fixings used are able to bear the weight of
the Sentinel 2 and any cables.
All cables should be routed and secured in a way that avoids
stress being put on the connectors.
4.1.1
Antenna
Attach the antenna to the connector labelled “Aerial”.
The bracket offers a potential mounting location for the antenna,
as shown, although the installer should seek to find the optimal
location for the antenna within the installation (see section 4.21).
4.1.2
Battery
If the system is to be installed with an external battery (optional, but sometimes
required to increase the length of service of the system), mount it in a suitable location
near the control box. It must be connected to the Control box via the connector labelled
“Comms / Ext battery”.
The external battery may be
temporarily disconnected
during parts of the installation
(whilst the Comms cable is
required to be used) but must
be re-connected at the end of
system installation.
4.1.3
Hydroswitch
Connect the Hydroswitch to the Sentinel Control box. (Refer to section 2.6)
