Installing Sensors
PLACEMENT OF SENSORS
1. Place the sensors on top of the ground in the corresponding
zones that they represent on the Base Station and remove the
tine sleeves. The ideal location in each zone is between sprinkler
heads, in the driest part of the zone and with the clearest line of
site to the Base Station when at all possible. The sensors should
be placed perpendicular to the Base Station, so that the broad
side of the sensor body is facing in the direction of the Base Sta-
tion. (See figure on next page)
2. Once all sensors are placed on top of the ground in the correct
zones, go back to the Base Station and restart it by pressing and
holding the select button down for 4 seconds and then releasing.
The Base Station will go dark and then come back on to the intro-
duction screen for about 10 seconds before presenting the main
screen. The main screen should show all of the zones with an “XX”
at the bottom of the columns. You should begin to see each sensor
come on line and the “XX” icon go to a “solid square” and a “full
antenna”. Since the sensors will be in rapid broadcast mode, you
should not have to wait long to see if they all communicate from
the locations that you have selected.
3. Go back to the zone one sensor. Dig a hole using a small shovel
or a hole cutter approximately one and quarter times the length
of the sensor and three times the width (keeping in mind the ori-
entation of the sensor to the Base Station) as shown in the figure
below.
