  When multi-depth soil moisture sensor installing, you need to choose a relatively high and flat location for installation, which can prevent rainwater from pouring into the equipment and cause short circuits or line failures, and also ensure the accuracy of monitoring data.

  First, we first use a soil drill to drill a hole vertically on the ground to ensure that the sensor is placed and taken out smoothly; until the depth of the hole is flush with the installation position marked by the sensor, the drilling is completed; the mixed mud is slowly poured into the approximate hole After installing the monitor to the correct depth at 1/2 position, keep the installation depth of the monitor flush with the hole, and the installation is complete.

  

  Then, take out the soil impurities, stones, roots, and dirt that are not easily dissolved in the pot, pour in an appropriate amount of water and stir thoroughly until it is viscous, and mix into a slurry.

  Finally, pour the mud into the hole, about halfway to the hole; it can be increased or decreased according to the actual situation. The sensor is slowly put into the hole, and the sensor is slowly rotated in one direction and pressed down. If the speed is too fast, the bubbles may not be Completely discharged, the installation depth of the sensor is flush with the hole, and the installation is complete.

  After the multi-depth soil moisture sensor is installed, press the power key button, the monitor will be turned on after the device emits a beep, and the device can operate normally at this time. One thing to note is that the device must be installed in a location where there is a signal to prevent data from being unable to be uploaded to the cloud platform due to the remote location.
