Most rain sensors must collect a certain amount of rainfall before activating a switch that interrupts irrigation at the controller and shuts down the system. Until then, the system will continue to use water unnecessarily. This is particularly problematic for environmentally conscious municipal, commercial and private users. The Hunter Rain-Clik and Wireless Rain-Clik with built-in Quick-Response Technology can initiate a shift immediately after precipitation sets in. The Rain-Clik can be attached to an eaves or any smooth vertical surface such as a wall or fence.
The Wireless Rain-Clik has 5 cables:
- 2x yellow for the power supply. Only works with 24VAC! For the OpenSprinkler AC or OSPi the two yellow cables can be connected to the contacts of the orange plug! For the OpenSprinkler DC is not possible, you need a separate one 24VAC power supply.
- Orange, blue and white: Blue to GND and White to SN1/SN2 for Normally closed mode. Or Blue to GND and Orange to SN1/SN2 for Normally open mode. Cover the end of the remaining cable with electrical tape.
In the OpenSprinkler Settings menu on the bottom right / “Edit options”, then select “Weather and sensors”. A tick at “Open” means “Normaly open”, if you remove it it is “Normaly closed”.
NEVER CONNECT TO COM! 24VAC AC voltage is present at the COM, this can destroy the signal input! Use GND+SN1/SN2!
For testing on OpenSprinkler If there is a test button, press it for at least 30s as the display reacts slowly.
The bypass button on the receiver can be used to check whether the OpenSprinkler responded correctly.
The test button on the sensor can be used to check whether it is correctly connected to the receiver.
