HARDWARE INSTALLATION

Remove Old Irrigation Timer

A:  Unplug your old timer (test system before doing so).

B:  Take a picture of your wiring 

setup using your iPhone or 
Android (for reference).

C:  Label the important wires on 

the old timer (important wires 
include the common wire, 
master valve/pump valve, rain 
sensor, and any other non-
zone wires).

D:  Remove the old timer from the wall.

Mount the Iro

A:  Install the Iro Wall Mount to  

the wall using 2 screws  
(screws included).

B:  Reconnect the wires to the Wall 

Mount terminals. Zone wires go 
in the green slots. Common wires 
go in the white slots. Sensor wires 
(rain – if present) go in the yellow 
slots. Master/pump valve wire (if 
present) go in the blue slot.  
NOTE: If you connect wires to the 
yellow or blue slots, they must be 
activated within the app.

Tips for wiring:

-  Common wire (C/COM) color is usually white.
-  Rain Sensor wire (R/SEN) color varies – diagrams 

available in support website.

-  24VAC wires are not needed with the Iro.
-  Enclosure required for hard wiring installations  

and/or outdoor installation.

-  To release wires, push down on wiring terminal 

with small screwdriver.

-  Only install one wire  

per wire slot.

C:  Install the Front Panel to  

the Wall Mount (simply push  
it into place).
