PSD PhotoSensor (D-Type)

IF YOU ARE ORDERING A NEW ADOR1, THEN THIS IS THE ONE FOR THE ADOR1s AFTER MAY 2015.  

The ADOR has an integral built-in photosensor,  so normally, you do not need this external sensor.   But if you mount the ADOR inside a dark coop, the external photosensor is needed.  It plugs into the ADOR's electronic board and the wire should be run over to the exterior wall of the coop where it can "see" ambient daylight.  Often, if installing the door inside the coop, people decide to get the External Pushbutton (EPB) to allow manual operation without having to go inside the coop to get to the front panel switch.

NOTE:  there are two variants:

1. Standard 4 foot wire

2. Long 12' wire

This "D-type" sensor is the "new" type and is for  ADORs later than mid-May 2015.  If your ADOR or your replacement board for your ADOR was ordered around May 2015 or later, the sensor type you need is this new "D-Type" sensor..  The OLD Type sensor is compatible with electronics from before May 2015.

Here is the instruction sheet for installing this sensor.
