	Attach provided hose-clamp(s) to the back of the Telemetry. Or use other means to attach the Telemetry, like zip ties.
	Drive a pole into the ground, making sure it is placed deep enough to stay upright and attach the Telemetry to the pole.
	Connect the antenna either directly to the back of the Telemetry or use the extension cable to be able to put it in a higher position when the mobile signal is poor or the crop would block the signal.
	Connect the soil moisture or other sensors to the correct port  (See wiring scheme below).  Take good note of proper order of the individual wires.
	Close the Telemetry door.
