7. Open the sensor array field case with a flat-bladed screwdriver and apply one of the 

power options indicated below.  

 

If you have a solar-powered system, connect the gel cell battery.  
If you have a non-solar-powered system, decide whether you want to install 
the power adapter OR the lithium battery (the two will NOT work in tan-
dem or as backup).  Davis recommends the battery to ensure power during 
storms.  If used as the primary power source, one 

 

fresh

 

 lithium battery 

should provide about six months of service.  Use two 

 

fresh

 

 lithium batteries 

to double life (second is not provided).  

 

Note:

 

Be sure dip switch #4 is set to “Run” (rather than “Test”) so that the LED indicator will not 
flash unnecessarily when not testing see “Testing Proposed Locations” on page 8 for instructions 

 

on setting dip switches).

 

Once power is applied, the console should start reading the values of the 
sensors installed in the sensor array.
