IMPORTANT NOTE: Determine if the irrigation system uses a pump or Master Valve. Look at the irrigation wiring, if
there is a wire attached to a terminal labeled “P/MV” or “Pump/Master Valve”, the system has one of these present.
IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT ATTACH THE POWER CONDUCTORS UNTIL ALL OTHER WIRES HAVE BEEN ATTACHED
1. Using wire labels, label all valve stations,
common, power and pump master (if
present) wires in the irrigation clock.
2. Using a one inch (1”) hole saw bit, drill
a one inch (1”) hole into the irrigation
clock on the side nearest the Base Station
making sure that no internal parts are
damaged. Remove any internal electron-
ic boards that may be in the way of the
drilling procedure. The irrigation clock
may be outfitted with a punch out also
though keep in mind most punch outs are
only ¾ of inch in size.
3. Remove the jam nut from the wire strain
relief and carefully insert the 18 conduc-
tor wiring harness from the Base Station
into the irrigation clock through the one
inch hole. Thread the wires from the wir-
ing harness through the wire strain relief
nut inside the irrigation clock and insert
and secure the male end of the wire strain
relief by screwing the jam nut on.
4. The wiring harness wires will be bundled
into three groups (“Clock Bundle”, “Valve
Bundle”, “Power Bundle”) and each wire
in the bundles individually labeled as well.
5. Identify the wires in the irrigation clock
that go to each valve station. Remove the
wire (in the irrigation clock) from the Valve
Station #1 terminal and butt connect it to
the WHITE wire with a BLUE STRIPE
labeled V1/V7 and crimp it so its attached
securely.
6. Identify the BLUE wire labeled C1/C7
and attach that wire in the irrigation
clock’s Valve Station #1 terminal where
you removed the wire in step 5 above.
