3 pcs 10 kg sensor 1 pcs 25 kg sensor 2 pcs 100 kg sensor 3.Additional accessories necessary for installation 3.1 Summary Installation consists of two steps. First we need to separate a section of plants so that we can measure them. Then we need to fix the Trutina unit and its additional accessories to the suitable place of the separated part. - Page 6 It is advisable to cut the gutter 10-05 cm shorter than the distance between the balusters in order to make the mounting easier.

Wire-rope Shackle 4.Steps of installation 4.1 Preparation 4.1.1 Electricity To the operation of the scales you will need electricity at 230V / 50 Hz, but the power supply also supports the range of voltage between 100V-240V (50Hz/60HZ). The cable of the power supply is 2 m long, so the electrical socket needs to be placed within this distance from the power suppply. - Page 8 It is advisable to use good quality, outdoor cable, type CAT5e/CAT6 FTP or SFTP and connectors type FTP RJ-45 in the greenhouses in order to avoid any electrical interference. CAT5e FTP cable FTP UTP connector If there is no possibility to build up a cable connection in the growing facility, setting up the device with wireless connection is also feasible.

The realization of wireless bridge to the Trutina In case of cable connection the length of the cable cannot exceed 90 m. In case of wireless connection creating a stable link is of utmost importance. To set up wireless connection, please consult your IT expert. 4.2 Mounting the gutter In connection with the attributes of the gutter further information can be found at point 3.2. - Page 10 The 100 kg sensor will be placed between the turnbuckle and the gutter-holding triangle. The sensor can be placed after fixing the measuring unit, so it is advisable to leave the gutter loose, unloaded. Information on setting up the 100 kg sensors can be found at 4.4.

4.4 Installation of the 100 kg sensors on the gutter Placement of the 100 kg sensors is needed in case of the device Trutina Hydro. Two of the 100 kg sensors of the Trutina need to be hanged between the turnbuckle and the gutter-holding triangle at the end of the hanged gutter. -
Page 14: Installation Of The 10 Kg Sensors
The distance between the gutter and the gutter system belowit should be at least 20 mm. 4.5 Installation of the 10 kg sensors High degree of attention is needed during the installation of the sensors. The weight marked on the sensors means their maximum load. - Page 15 The 10 kg sensors must be hanged on the place of the hooks of the plants taking part in the measurement. The hooks supporting the plants must be hanged on the sensors. When the plants are lowered, the sensor needs to be relocated according to the technology and the hook must be placed back on the sensor.
- Page 16 It is advisable to place the sensors in a way that the plants advance in the direction of the Trutina. Alternatively, the sensors move away (together with the plants), so as soon as the sensor cables start to strain they must be hanged on another plant. But the frequent change of the plants undermines the validation of the measurement.
