Remove and tape-off wires.

1. With power removed unplug the precipitation sensor terminal block. 2. Remove the 5 precipitation sensor leads from the block by unscrewing the terminals. 3. Tape off or cut back the sensor leads to prevent contact with DS-8 electronics. 4. Fashion a jumper wire by stripping both ends of a piece of 18-24 AWG wire.

Fashion a jumper wire by stripping both ends of a piece of 18-24 AWG wire. 5. Insert the jumper across the BLK and RED terminal block positions and tighten the terminal screws. 6. Reinsert the sensor terminal block and reapply power to DS-8.

Create a jumper between BLK and RED.

Once power is reapplied the unit will activate in temperatures below the trigger point or when coolant is used to chill the thermal probe below the trigger point. The trigger point can be adjustedOnce power is reapplied the unit will activate in temperatures below the trigger point or when coolant using the TEMP control on the DS-8. chill the thermal probe below the trigger point. The trigger point can be adjusted using the TEMP co the DS-8.
