Your GDot will work straight out of the box - just install the sensor 10-20 cm from a dripper, or within the wetting zone of your irrigation system, then plug the sensor into the display. It's powered by 2 'AA' batteries (supplied). After a few years, when these need to be replaced, click here to see how.

Each GDot includes a single Watermark sensor (we call them gypsum blocks). These sensors are used for irrigation scheduling around the world in almost all soil types. If you have very sandy soil or heavy clays, click here to see if the GDot sensor will still be suitable for you. If you have typical soil conditions for agriculture, you can rely on them to give accurate readings and to be maintenance free for many years.

Your soil type, irrigation frequency and local rainfall all influence how long a Watermark sensor will last, but you should expect between 2 and 5 years.
