Preparation control unit
Note: The predefined order during com-
missioning must be strictly observed. Oth-
erwise it is not guaranteed that the sensor
is correctly registered with the control unit.
Assistance for the operating procedure is
provided by the accompanying quick start.
Note: The battery is not included in the
scope of delivery.
Figure 1, 2
Insert the battery into the battery com-
partment in the correct position (+/-
marking).
As soon as the battery is inserted, the
display, after a short self-test, changes
directly into the settings mode for the
current time. The hours of the time dis-
play are flashing.
Figure 3
Set hours.
Press the OK button and set minutes.
Confirm the setting of the minutes by
pressing the OK button.
Note: From now on, the receiver waits for
the radio signal of the sensor for teaching.
During this time, the radio signal is flashing
and the seconds countdown is counted
down.
Important: In order to establish the radio
contact between the receiver and the sen-
sor, the sensor battery must be inserted
within 60 seconds.
Preparation / teaching sensor 1
CAUTION
The moisture absorption of the sensor pad
can be impaired by grease or oil on the sur-
face. Do not touch or wipe the sensor pad
with greasy/oily hands/rags.
Figure 4
Remove the sensor cap of the sensor.
Connect the battery with the battery
clip. The connected battery is reinsert-
ed in the casing with the battery clip go-
ing in first.

Figure 5
Contact radio signal.
As soon as the contact of the radio sig-
nal is established, the symbol for the ra-
dio signal appears permanently. It is
now guided through the setup se-
quence (preset value for moisture,
times, etc.).
Figure 6
Sensor 1 was detected successfully.
Note: The operating mode is specified and
saved during the teaching process. A
change of the operating mode (e.g. from
sensor control to time control) is only possi-
ble by a new teaching process after a reset.
Irrigation settings of water outlet 1
Figure 7
Set the tripping limit for the soil moisture.
Note: Setting is only possible in the sen-
sor-controlled operation, not in the time-
controlled operation.
Drops show the measured soil moisture,
the adjustable triangles show the tripping
limit. As soon as the measured soil mois-
ture falls below the tripping limit, the irri-
gation starts automatically at the next set
time.
Figure 8.1, 8.2
Set the irrigation time for mornings and
evenings.
Per day 2 times can be set at which the
irrigation starts if the measured soil mois-
ture is below the tripping limit. With "- -:-
-" the irrigation time can be deactivated.
Figure 9
Set the irrigation duration.
The irrigation duration per irrigation cycle
can be set between 1 - 90 minutes. With
"- -" the irrigation duration is deactivated.
Figure 10
Set the irrigation delay.
The irrigation can be delayed for 1 - 7
days; this stimulates the root develop-
ment of the plants. Moreover, it saves
water if it rains during the delay days.
With setting
"- d" this function is deactivated.
