Solar Power Module P1 - Open Cover Instructions

Place the device in places where direct sunlight hits for at least 3 or more hours a day. Make sure that the part of the solar panel (Part A) is facing the place where the direct sun hits the most.

If it is placed where the sun does not shine regularly and for enough hours to keep the battery charge stable, it could damage the sensor device. Check that as the days go by, the device remains on and working with enough energy.

Attach the energy module by the grip rail (Part D) to Water Level S1 grip rail connector. Ensure it enter completely until the end of the grip rail.

Finally, connect the power output cable to the Water Level S1 power input at Control Unit.
