 Connecting (optional) Rain Sensor 

A rain sensor is a remote sensing device that can be

connected directly to your ECXTRA to interrupt auto-

matic watering operation during rain.
A sensor bypass switch is provided to enable the sensor

operation to be turned On and Off as needed.
When the rain sensor detects rain, it signals the ECXTRA

to suspend all watering operations. The “No Watering”

symbol

will appear in the upper right corner of the dis-

play until the sensor drys out and automatically resets.

The symbol will then disappear and timer operation

will resume as programmed.

1. Route the two sensor wires from the device into the

timer housing through the access hole provided.

2. Remove the plastic piece from the Sensor terminal

connectors. Connect the two sensor wires in any order.

3. Set the Sensor Configuration Switch (6) to NC

(Normally Closed) or NO (Normally Open) operation

as required by the type of sensor connected.

Note: Refer to the instructions provided with the rain

sensor to determine NO or NC switch type and for

additional installation and operating information.

4. Set the Sensor Bypass Switch (5) as required: ENB

(enable) allows the rain sensor to interrupt watering;

DIS

(disable) bypasses the rain sensor input.

IMPORTANT: Do not use the ENB switch position

with the NC switch position unless a Normally Closed

rain sensor is connected. Watering operation will be

suspended if this condition occurs.
