1. Select a representative soil environment to clean up surface debris and vegetation
2. Insert the sensor horizontally and completely into the soil.
3. If there is a hard object, the measurement location should be replaced and re-measured
4. For accurate data, it is recommended to measure multiple times and take the average

Measure Notes
1. All probe must be inserted into the soil during measurement.
2. Avoid excessive temperature caused by direct sunlight on the sensor. Pay attention to lightning protection in the field
3. Do not pull the sensor lead wire with force, do not hit or violently hit the sensor.
4. The protection grade of the sensor is IP68, which can soak the entire sensor in water.
5. Due to the presence of radio frequency electromagnetic radiation in the air, it should not be energized in the air for a long time.
