How to install your Leaf wetness sensor?

You will need the following material:

• 4 cable ties (supplied with the sensor)

Here are the steps to follow:

1. Choose your location.
   

   Choose an area that is representative of your plot: soil, vegetation, irrigation zone.

2. Position your sensor in an area that has a representative plant cover. 
   

   When using the RIMpro model, position the sensor horizontally and away from the plant canopy.
   

3. Pick up the sensor's serial number before you attach it, as you'll need it to connect it to the Weenat-App.
   
   
   
4. Pass the cable ties through the loops at the back of the electronic  box. 
   
   
5. Attach the electronic box to a fence post using 2 cable ties.
   
   
   
6. Slide the other 2 cable ties into the loops of the sensor's metallic support.
   
   
7. Secure the sensor'smetallic support to the fence post using the cable ties.
   
   
   
8. Screw the antenna on the box.
   
   
9. Log in to the Weenat-App.
   

   Add the sensor to the App by clicking on the + (located in the top right corner of your screen) then on A sensor. Add the tensiometer's serial number.

10. Link a sensor to your plot by following the steps in this article 👉How to link a sensor to my plot? 

    The synchronisation of the data between the sensor and the app can take up to 15 minutes, just in time for a coffee break  😉.
