To install the cell modem hardware

1. We recommend that you back up your current configuration before starting this process in

case you need to restore your system.

Refer to Backing Up the Controller Programming in the BaseStation 1000 User Manual.

Refer to Backing Up Your System in the BaseStation 3200 User Manual.

2. Halt all watering while you install the cell modem hardware.

BaseStation 1000: Press the OFF button.

BaseStation 3200: Turn the dial to

the OFF position.

3. Open the internal door of the BaseStation

enclosure.

4. Remove the two screws that secure the

black plastic cover over the controller PCA

board as shown in Figure 1. Put the cover

and the screws in a dust free location.

5. Find the orange power connector on the

wires coming from the transformer (see

Figure 2). Gently pull the connector away

from the board to disconnect the power.

6. Remove the cell modem hardware and the

antenna from its packaging.

7. Use needle-nose pliers to remove the

rubber plug from the antenna port on the

top of the enclosure.

8. Remove the nut and the lock washer from

the bottom of the antenna, and then insert

the stem of the antenna into the port on the

top of the enclosure.

9. From the inside of the enclosure, place the

lock washer on the stem of the antenna, and

then thread the nut onto the stem (see Figure

3). Use a wrench to tighten the nut sufficiently

to ensure that the antenna makes good

contact with the outside of the enclosure.

10. Remove the adhesive from the included piece

of weather stripping, and then attach it as

shown in Figure 3.

Note: Because the lower attachment points

are not used, the weather stripping is used to
give extra support to the cell modem module.
