Operating Your Sentry System
1. Allow the Sentry System to operate at the pre-set level for at least 24 hours before adding cigars to your
cabinet. The initi al digital reading will be much lower than 70%, but will rise upon starti ng the system.
2. The system will consume large quanti ti es of water during the seasoning stage of 3 to 4 days. Therefore, it is
important to keep the reservoir fi lled at all ti mes.
3. The Sentry Humidifi cati on System requires that you adjust the humidity level in response to the independent
LCD hygrometer. Close your cabinet’s door and allow the system to run for several hours. When the fan stops
running, the system has reached the set-point level and you should now note the humidity reading on the
hygrometer.
Adjusti ng the Set Point
4. With the knob at its lowest setti ng, turn it slowly clockwise to increase the set point. Stop when the green
indicator turns on. The system is now set to the current Relati ve Humidity.
5. Turn the knob further in small increments to increase the Relati ve Humidity and wait. When the green
indicator automati cally turns off , the set point is at its current Relati ve Humidity on the display. If necessary,
adjust further unti l you reach your desired Relati ve Humidity.
Note:
Once set the system will not need adjustment and will maintain a Relati ve Humidity /- 5% of
your set point.
6. To lower your set point, slowly turn the control knob counterclockwise 1/8 turn and close the cabinet door.
You may have to repeat this process every few hours unti l you hit your desired humidity level.
Note:
If your system has been running at a high humidity level for an extended period of ti me it may take
up to 10 days for the humidity level in your cabinet to drop to the new set point.
The Sentry Humidifi cati on System electronically controls the humidity level of your Wall Humidor cabinet using
a digital display. This system uses a manual dial to adjust the relati ve humidity within your cabinet and is accurate
to +/-5% of your desired set point.
Note:
This is our standard system.
