PEARL - Solar Light Sensor Installation on 5 Input Module

The Pearl Solar Light Sensor is a 12vdc Sensor that would be wired to your 5 Input Module in the following way:
The Red Wire of Rain Sensor goes to (+) 12vdc
The (-) of 12vdc Power Supply Wire goes into (-) of the Input you are going to use for Solar Light Sensor
The Black Wire of Rain Sensor goes into the (+) of the Input you are going to use for Solar Light Sensor


once wired you would have to map sensor to this module board
(for example let say this Module is board 4, input 1, for Out Light)
you would map it in sensor mapping:
hit Enter button, go into System Setup, then Setup Inputs, and you would hit enter to highlight the editing field and scroll down to change OLight to be In Bd4 Ch1
