Sensor Installation
The Lynx Smart Satellite sensor (LSSS) input board can
accomodate a wide variety of sensors: pressure, flow, rain,
status, and temperature.
While we strive to support all sensors, documenting the
installation procedure for every available sensor is not
possible. If the below installation steps do not work,
consult the documentation that shipped with your sensor.
These instructions assume the specified sensor is already
installed in your irrigation system and cables already run to
the controller.
For all sensor installation
procedures, turn off or remove
power from the controller.
Pressure Sensor
Toro sells a pressure sensor kit (part number PRESS200-
SEN-KIT), composed of a 6' long sensor cable and a
pressure sensor.
Steps
1. At the LSSS board, secure the pressure sensor's black
lead to screw IN 1 and white lead to screw 12V
(see Terminals Explained illustration above).
2. At the sensor, insert the wire plug into the adapter of
