The iPonic sensor measures light, temperature, CO2 and humidity.
The module includes a 16-foot sensor cable. Optimally, you will want to hang the module near the crop level, close to the center of the controlled environment to get readings closest to what the plants experience.
You want to keep the module away from irrigation emitters, unit heaters, etc. that will affect the accuracy of the sensor.
1. Connect the sensor module at the bottom of the iPonic. Make sure it is screwed in tightly.
2. The top of the sensor is the end attached to the sensor cable and contains the light sensor, for accurate light reading allow this end to face the light bank.
3. You may extend the sensor cable as needed, but be sure to use an adapter and wire approved by Link4 to make any extensions, or Link4 Extension Cables.
4. Do not cut or splice the sensor cable, doing this WILL cause unstable sensor readings, and will void the sensor warranty.
4. Keep sensor cables away from interference sources, including high voltage power wiring, inverters, motor controllers, and mercury arc or sodium lamp circuits.
