Soil Sensor System

User’s Guide

Introduction

Leveraging the same Toro soil-sensing technology used on high-end

commercial sites and world-class golf courses, the Toro Precision

™

Soil

Sensor continuously monitors the soil moisture and determines when

watering is actually needed – greatly increasing the efciency of your

sprinkler , reducing wasteful over-watering, while promoting the over-

all health and beauty of your landscape.

The Precision Soil Sensor system consists of a wireless soil moisture

sensor and digital receiver, making installation quick and simple. The

compact receiver installs alongside the timer, either indoors or out, and

connects directly to the timer’s power and sensor terminals, or simply

taps into the valve common wire circuit. The sensor is placed in a suit-

able lawn area where it sends soil moisture and air temperature read-

ings to the receiver every 10 minutes. When automatic watering is

scheduled to start, the Precision Soil Sensor allows the sprinklers to

run only if the soil moisture has dropped below the minimum moisture

setting, and the air temperature is favorable for watering.

The sensor simply plugs into the soil – so there’s no holes to dig or

wires to bury. All you’ll need to complete the installation is a small

Phillips screwdriver, three AA alkaline batteries and a bit of

do-it-yourself enthusiasm.

The Precision Soil Sensor system is designed to help grow and maintain healthy landscape vegetation while reducing water

use by improving the operation of your sprinkler control timer. It cannot improve or remedy a sprinkler system that’s improperly

designed, installed or maintained. So, to gain the maximum benefit afforded by the addition of the Precision Soil Sensor, it is

vitally important to make certain your automatic sprinkler system is in good working order; capable of providing proper sprinkler

coverage–where and when it’s needed.
