Open the enclosure to get access 
to the data logger and disconnect the four cables coming from the pyranometer into the data 
logger (usually one into 3H (or 4H), one into 3L (or 3H) and two grounds).

Using the thin Allen wrench (that 
comes with the pyranometer), free the pyranometer from the leveling base. Write down the 
Serial Number (below the Model label on one side) and the date on the 
Sensor

 Locate the replacement pyranometer in its housing making sure 
that the cable is routed through the slot on one side. Secure the pyranometer by tightening the 
screw on the side of the base (using the thin Allen wrench). R

Route and secure the cable through the 
leveling arm and base until it reaches the enclosure. Route through the enclosure making sure 
there is enough slack to connect to the data logger. Connect the cables to the terminals where 
the replaced-to-be pyranometer used to be (use the cabling diagram for your site to match the 
color cables and terminals). Secure the cables inside the enclosure using a grommet and 
leaving enough slack so they are not tense.

Make sure the new pyranometer is leveled by checking the 
bubble in the leveling base. Adjust if necessary using the protruding screws on the leveling 
base.

 Complete a

Form
 (Appendix A.5) for each sensor that is sent out for calibration. Mail the sensor head back 
to the manufacturer for recalibration. When the sensor comes back, fill in the rest of the 
Sensor Calibration Metadata Form
 and keep the sensor as a duplicate.

Since the sensors have been removed from the field and sent out for calibration at this point, the 
Sensor Installation/Calibration Form
 and 
Sensor Calibration Metadata Form
 should have been 
completed. To upload this information to the TEAM portal, follow the steps below: 
a)  Open an internet browser and navigate to the TEAM portal (www.teamnetwork.org).
