 Using two pieces of tape mark the north-facing sensor stand with a “1” 
and the south-facing sensor stand with a “2” using a permanent marker so it is easy to identify 
the sensor number on the 
Climate Maintenance Log
 form (Appendix A.3).

Once the sensors are mounted and leveled, route and secure the cables 
along the cross arm and then along the tower using plastic cable ties. Lead the cables into the 
enclosure.

 secure the cable connecting the sensor to the data logger adequately. If the cable is left 
hanging in the air it might be vulnerable to the wind or become a bird perching site. Strap the cable to 
the structure all the way down to the floor, and from there bury it underground to the base of the 
climate station where the data logger is. It is a good idea to lay down ” PVC pipe 10-20 cm below 
the ground and pass the cable through the PVC rather than bury it unprotected underground.
