M-Sensor Soil
The soil sensor has external soil moisture sensor probe and soil temperature
probe, enabling precise monitoring of soil water content and temperature.
The M-Sensor soil is used for tracking soil moisture and temperature trends
in crops, vineyards, or other areas where moisture level is a concern.
See Appendix A.5: for detailed specification.

2.3.1.1
Assembly of the Soil-Sensor
Assembly of the M-Sensor soil is similar to the assembly of the M-sensor Air.
Refer to paragraph
2.3.1.2
Activation of the Soil -Sensor
M-Sensor is activated by pressing the push button for 3 seconds
The M-sensor gives a positive visual indication of the success of the
activation process as described in Table 3
2.3.1.3
Operation of the Soil Sensor
The M-sensor, once active, connects to an available CartaSense sensors
network.
2.4
M-Sensor Sun
The Sun sensor is based on the M-Sensor and has external sun radiation PPF
sensor. The unit contains internal temperature sensors and optionally RH
sensors - see Appendix
A.6: for detailed specification.
