Clik operation
The.Rain-Clik™.will.keep.the.irrigation.
from.starting.or.continuing.during.
rainfall..No.adjustment.or.calibration.
is.required.for.the.Rain-Clik™.sensor..
The.Rain-Clik™.uses.patented.Quick.
Response™.technology.that.will.shut.
the.system.off.during.the.first.few.
minutes.of.rain..The.only.adjustment.
that.is.necessary.is.the.vent.ring.that.
will.either.slow.down.or.speed.up.the.
time.at.which.the.sensor.dries.out.and.
the.system.is.turned.back.on..Opening.the.vent.will.speed.up.the.
dry.out.time.and.closing.the.vents.will.slow.down.dry.out.time.
In.addition,.the.Solar.Sync’s.built-in.temperature.sensor.provides.
system.shutdown.when.freezing.conditions.occur..At.approximately.
37˚.F/3˚.C.and.below.the.Solar.Sync.module.will.command.the.
controller.to.shut.down..A.“sensor.off”.indication.will.be.displayed.
on.your.controller.when.the.sensor.is.active..When.temperatures.
rise.above.37˚.F/3˚.C,.automatic.irrigation.will.be.activated.at.the.
next.scheduled.start.time...
bypassing the sensor
If.the.Rain.Sensor.or.Freeze.Sensor.
is.preventing.system.operation,.
SEnSOr OFF.will.be.displayed.on.
the.controller’s.display..Simply.move.
the.Bypass.switch.on.the.controller.to.
byPASS and.the.Solar.Sync’s.Rain.and.
Freeze.Sensor.will.be.bypassed..This.
allows.you.to.operate.your.system..
The.Solar.Sync.will.continue.to.make.
adjustments.to.your.controller’s.
watering.schedule.
The.controller’s.Rain.Sensor.switch.should.be.in.the.ACTIvE 
position.for.the.Rain.Sensor.and.Freeze.Sensor.to.interrupt.watering.
during.rainy.and/or.freezing.conditions..
maintaining the sensor
The.Solar.Sync.sensor.is.designed.for.outdoor.use,.but.must.be.
kept.clean.to.function.correctly..Wiping.the.clear.dome.covering.the.
solar.radiation.sensor.every.6.months.is.recommended..Do.not.use.
harsh.chemicals.or.abrasives.on.the.clear.dome.
