Connect PV Panel Sensor (Entry Model)
The PV sensor is not polarity sensitive. Therefore, each signal wire is interchangeable. The sensor
comes with a 25ft length of cable. If a temperature sensor is not used, it should be terminated with a
0-ohm shunt between the positive and negative signal.

1.
Properly ground the weather station by connecting the
Earth GND

Weather Station to an earth ground. Connecting the
Earth GND
helps ensure the
accuracy of weather instruments.

Re-attach the cover to the connection case using the four screws. Make sure not to
pinch the newly connected 24VDC or RS485 wires coming out of the case bottom. Note
that the cover only goes on one way with the opening for wires at the bottom.
