Figure 22. SolSensor correctly seated along the upper horizontal leg of the
module frame.
4. Holding SolSensor in that position, slip the tip of the Module Frame Clamp
inside the frame of the module. Seat the tip of the clamp on the flat inner surface
of the frame as shown in Figure 23 and not on a shelf or ridge from which it
could slip, allowing SolSensor to come loose.
5. Squeeze the clamp mechanism until SolSensor is firmly held against the side of
the module frame.

6. Inspect the mounting and assure that the posts and blue ears are in contact with
the upper edge of the module frame. If there is space under one or both of the
blue ears, the irradiance sensor will not be in the plane of the array as desired;
loosen the clamp slightly, reposition SolSensor, and re-tighten the clamp.
