4. Secure the sensor to the mounting

shelf by driving the screws into the

appropriate holes as shown.

Note: The holes are not equidistant from each other, so the shield will only attach one way

5. Using the bubble level on the

sensor as a guide, adjust the

sensor until it is level by

tightening or loosening the

screws. The top of the Solar

Radiation sensor should be

even with or slightly above the

rim of the rain cone. The entire

comb structure of the UV

Radiation sensor should be above the rim of the rain cone.

6. Repeat the above process to install an additional sensor. Replace the rain

collector cone when finished.

Note: Final leveling of the sensor(s) should be done with the ISS mounted in its operating

location.

Routing the Sensor Cable

Run the cables down from the Sensor Mounting Shelf to the tramsmitter shelter.

You can take up the slack by winding the cables around the posts under the rain

collector base that connect the base to the radiation shield.

Open the shelter and remove the foam insert, and guide the cable through the

access port. Insert the sensor plug into the proper receptacle (marked “SUN” for

the Solar Radiation Sensor or “UV” for the UV Sensor) and replace the foam

insert, ensuring that the foam insert fills all large voids in the access port. Ensure

that the cables are free of crimps. Secure them to the support tubes with the

provided cable ties so that they will not fray in the wind.

Note: Slide flat cables to the left to make more room in the access port.
