 Installation Guide
Before You Start:
Equipment and Power Requirements:
INDOORS
You need to have the 
WeatherTRAK
 controller and manual. There must be a
power outlet within 6-8 feet of where the 
WeatherTRAK
 will be installed. If
the valve wires are 16 gauge or heavier, you will need some 18-22 gauge solid
valve extension wire (we recommend 20 gauge) and some wire nuts.
OUTDOORS
You need to have the 
WeatherTRAK
 controller, an outdoor box (from
HydroPoint Data Systems, Inc.) and manual. There should be a junction box
with 110VAC available near the proposed 
WeatherTRAK
 installation. You’ll
need to bring power to the receptacle inside the outdoor box. Make sure you
have some conduit and adapters available. You will need some 18-22 gauge
solid valve extension wire (we recommend 20 gauge) and some wire nuts.
Installation:
Before you start, turn off the circuit breaker that powers the existing controller!!!
Labeling:
Make sure you know which station belongs to which wire before
disconnecting the irrigation valve wires from the existing controller. Label or
mark the wires accordingly. Also, make sure you identify the common wires
and label them.
Removing the Existing Controller:
Unplug the power supply. If there is an internal transformer on the controller’s
box, or the existing box is wired in, find the circuit breaker and turn it off. Then
proceed to undo the existing wiring.
Mounting the 
WeatherTRAK:
INDOORS
 
Make sure the new 
WeatherTRAK
 controller is at eye level for the expected
operator and mount to the wall. If the valve wires do not reach, or the wires
are 16 gauge or heavier, you may need to install a condolet box to bring
