Mounting
 The weather station is designed to mount on a post of 2" PVC pipe. However, any combination of pipe and fittings can be used to tailor an installation. The enclosed "reducer" fitting has two purposes: 1) It allows for the use of 1/2" PVC pipe for shorter mounts, and 2) Screwed down onto surface (wood post or deck), it acts as a base for the weather station to fit onto.

Important: For most accurate temperature sensing, rotate the weather station so the thermostat portion points north. 

Wiring to 24 VAC Controllers 

All three sensors are electrically connected in a series, so only two wires need to be used to connect to the irrigation controller. Use the green and silver (clear insulation) wires to hook up to normally-closed logic situations (See Figure 3).    
Follow the wiring instructions in any of the separate sensor manuals, or place the two wires on the controller's "sensor input" screw terminals if available. For controllers with normally-open sensor inputs (most Toro models), please consult factory.
  
Note: For extending wires, use wire 18AWG or heavier.
