Step 2

              Prepare the wireless charger               
  • Carefully fold the wireless charger just above the words “Wireless Charger”.
  • There are two parts inside the wireless charger. The fold is placed inbetween these two parts.

Step 3

              Connect parts to the PCB               
  • The soil sensor, battery and wireless charger all need to be connected to the PCB.
  • Battery
  • Make sure to connect the red wire to the plus (+) side as marked on the PCB. In this photo, the positive side is on the left.
  • Wireless charger
  • Soil sensor
  • When connecting the soil sensor and the PCB, you should hear a click.

Step 4

              Insert the PCB into the case               
  • The PCB and the wireless charger are inserted into the deep pocket of the soil sensor.
  • Make sure that the Wireless Charger logo is facing towards the outside of the case.
  • Assembly is easiest when the PCB is inserted at a slight angle.
  • Push the wireless charged in behind the PCB.
  • The PCB and wireless charger should be at the same height, but not inserted all the way.

Step 5

              Insert the battery               
  • The battery should be placed in front of the PCB. This is easiest when diagonally inserted.
  • The battery wires are in the upper righthand corner.

Step 7

              Packaging               
  • Put the assembled Soil Pro Mini back in the bag.
  • Place 20 assembled Soil Pro Minis back in the box.
  • There shoud be two rows of nine sensors in the box. Two sensors can be placed between the rows.
