To select the correct location:
Correct location:
The Sensor must be positioned at a location in the watering area which is
exposed to the same climatic conditions as the plants (sun, wind, rain, etc.)
for which a status is to be displayed.
Incorrect location:
The Sensor should not be covered by neighbouring plants. Areas of shade
should be avoided.
To rule out erroneous results caused by waterlogging, the Sensor should not
be positioned in dips in the ground.
