This section includes instructions for mounting the controller cabinet
and making the necessary wiring connections. To ensure safe
operation, it is important to follow the instructions carefully.

SELECTING AN INSTALLATION SITE

Selecting the proper installation site for the controller is essential to
safe and reliable operation. The outdoor model features a weather
resistant cabinet designed for indoor or outdoor installation. The
indoor model is not weather resistant and must be installed indoors
only.

The controller should be installed on a vertical wall or other sturdy
structure near a grounded power source. For outdoor models, select a
location that shades the controller during the hottest hours of the day
and provides as much protection from direct sunlight, rain, wind and
snow as possible. DO NOT mount the controller where it will be
exposed to direct spray from the irrigation system.
