There are two main components, 
the Transmitter and the Receiver.  
The Transmitter is installed out-
doors where it is exposed to all 
rainfall.  The Receiver is installed 
in a weatherproof location adjacent 
to the sprinkler valve controller. 
 
Install the Receiver first, at a loca-
tion in close proximity to the irri-
gation controller.  

Extend the An-

tenna straight up.  (See Fig. 2).

There are two steps involved: 
  Step 1:  Attach the control wires 
  Step 2:  Attach the low voltage power wires 
 

Step 1.  Control Wires 

(Disconnect power to the Controller):

 

The Receiver control wires (White, Brown, and Green) are used to inter-
rupt the common wire of the valves or they can be hooked up directly to 
the sensor input of the controller itself, if present.
