Installation
Installing the Battery
CAUTION: To avoid hazards from improper
battery usage, always replace the battery with
the same or equivalent alkaline battery type.
Properly dispose of used batteries as
recommended by the battery manufacturer.
Open the controller door. Carefully swing the control module open by pulling
it from the right edge. Locate the battery compartment at the top of the
module. Press down on top of the the cover while pulling it outward to
remove. Attach the battery wire clip to a standard 9-volt alkaline battery.
Position the battery in the compartment and reinstall the cover. A flashing
"12:00 AM" should show on the display. See Figure 2.
Note: The battery will power the display, but it will not operate the valves.
Mounting the Controller
Locate your Turf Pro indoor model in an area protected from weather, such
as a garage, within 5' (1.5m) of a grounded electrical outlet. The outdoor
model can be installed almost anywhere, but try avoiding exposure to direct
sprinkler spray. The controller must be powered by a grounded AC circuit
which is not shared with motorized equipment.
Use the mounting template (provided) to locate the mounting holes. Drive
the top #10 screw into a wall stud, leaving about 1/4" (6.5 mm) exposed.
Open the door to your controller and pull forward on the right edge of the
control module. Hang the controller on the screw using the keyhole slot
provided. To secure the controller, drive screws through the lower mounting
holes provided.
Note: The lower mounting hole locations on the outdoor cabinet have thin
webbing which can be easily removed with a 5/32" (4 mm) drill. Also, be
sure to use screw anchors if installing the controller on drywall or masonry.
CAUTION: The outdoor controller
cover must be closed and locked to
protect the electronic components from
moisture or direct irrigation spray
damage. Two keys are provided with each
controller. Be sure to keep the keys in a
safe location.
