Introduction The T oro Wireless RainSensor connects to your irrigation system controller/timer to suspend automatic watering operation in the event of rain. Designed for ease of installation, your sensor-controlled irrigation system will be up and running in minutes.
Component Overview Receiver (Figure 1) 1 - Weather -resistant Cover: Slides upward to remove. Protects the Receiver module when located outdoors. Keep the cover installed at all times other than when manu- ally operating the Receiver . 2 - Antenna wire: Straighten the antenna wire verti- cally for the best reception.
Quick Start Installation Instructions The following instructions are provided for the experienced installer . If you are installing a T oro Wireless Rainsensor for the first time, use the Detailed Installation Instructions starting on page 4. 1. Disconnect power to the irrigation system controller .
Detailed Installation Instructions There are two main components of the Wireless RainSensor: the Receiver and the Sensor/T ransmitter . The Receiver is installed adjacent to the irrigation system controller . The Sensor/T ransmitter is installed outdoors where it is exposed to unobstructed rainfall.
Remove the valve common wire from the valve common terminal (generally marked “ C ” , “ COM ” , or “ VC ” ). Join this wire to the White wire using a wire connector . Attach the Brown wire to the valve common terminal. Note: The yellow wire is not used in this application.
P art 2 - Po wer Wire Connection Note: The Receiver requires 24 V ac to operate. It should only be connected to an irrigation controller that uses a 24 V ac UL listed Class 2 transformer to supply power . Caution: Do not connect the Receiver directly to 120/240 V ac po wer as this may result in irre versible dama ge .
Initial Receiver T esting Reconnect power to the controller and verify the Receiver ’ s Power Indicator is illumi- nated. Hold the Sensor/T ransmitter at close range to the Receiver , then lightly press and hold the T est Spindle. The Sensor Status Indicator should illuminate and remain on until the T est Spindle is released.
Installation Procedure The Sensor/T ransmitter should be mounted vertically with the antenna wire extending straight down. Avoid installations wher e the antenna wire would contact any metal object. A rain gutter is an ideal location for the Sensor/T ransmitter .
RainSensor Operation Normal Operation When the RainSensor activates due to sufficient rainfall, the Sensor Status Indicator will remain illuminated on the Receiver and the sprinkler system will remain inactive until the moisture-absorbent discs inside the Sensor/T ransmitter have dried out.
Sensor/T ransmitter Battery Replacement 1 . Remove the bottom housing cover of the Sensor/T ransmitter by gently pressing in and down on the lower opposing tabs using a small flat-blade screwdriver , then carefully slide the circuit board out. See Figure 9 .
The obstacles will all affect the transmitted signal and typically reduce the radiated power that will be read by the Receiver . D if ferent objects such as walls and floors affect the transmitted signal dif ferently depending on the material composition, geom- etry and thickness.
Specifications: Receiver Mounting Options: Stainless steel screws and/or double-sided foam tape. Sensor/T ransmitter Mounting Options: Quick-Clip TM rain gutter bracket and roof eaves/fascia mounting bracket with stainless steel screws. Sensor/T ransmitter Range: Up to 300' line-of-site.
