Adding a Rain Sensor

Note: You will need to install the rain sensor via SD-110 sensor decoder. Normally closed rain sensors are not supported at this time. 

1. Install & discover the SD-110 decoder. For more information, access Adding a SD-110 Sensor Decoder to the NLP
2. Navigate to   → Irrigation controller → Control
3. Under Rain IO dropdown, select sensor decoder address attached to rain sensor
4. Under Rain start delay (min)(1) insert your desired delay. If no delay is desired, insert 0 min. 
5. Under bucket size (in), input:
   1. For N/O Rain Sensors = 0
   2. For NLP Rain Mater (TRB-NLP) = 0.04
   3. For other Tipping Rain Buckets = Contact Manufacturer

(1) Rain Start delay references the additional delay in irrigation after a rain sensor changes state. Rain sensor action & features can vary based on make & model. 

I.e.: 

• Rains for 2 hours for 0.25" of total rain
• Rain start delay is 180 min (3 hours)

N/O rain sensor

• Once sensor state reverts from "Closed" (Raining per Sensor) to "Open" (Not Raining per Sensor), delay irrigation by an additional 180 minutes
