2" Dome Installation | Lumo Help Center

Equipment needed

2” dome (already provisioned to the farm and assigned to a block)
Bag of Lumo nuts (should be in the box with the dome)
- 2 nuts (1 flat, 1 threaded)
- 1 small screw
- 1 cap
2 hose nuts (should be screwed onto the hose attachment spouts on the dome)
Lumo wrench/needle nose pliers
Phillips screwdriver
Magnetic dish (optional, but recommended)
2 aux-port covers
- 1 labeled A
- 1 labeled B
Wifi router (plugged into power source, turned on, and antennas connected)
Computer with Lumo Ops Center and Grafana open

Take the dome out of the box. The box should be labeled with a farm name and block name. (Make sure that these match with the farm and block that you are about to install at.)
Make sure you have all the other parts are there:
1. Hose nuts (located on the spots/hose connectors of the dome)
2. Bag of attachment/mounting hardware
  1. 2, nuts (one flat and the other threaded)
  2. 1, small screw
  3. 1, cap/disc
Unscrew the hose nuts from the spout attachments on the dome and put one on each of the hoses located on the 2” wetware.

Turn on the dome by pressing the power button (only press the button once, firmly)

The power button is located on the underside of the dome. The button is small, same color as the dome, and typically under some wires. If the LEDs are lit up on the top of the dome, proceed to the next step.
Confirm that the LED light with the wifi symbol next to it is blinking blue and then solid blue (it will alternate between these two phases)
1. What it looks like: 🔵 🛜
2. What this light and color mean: Installation Active Mode
  1. The alternating between flashing blue and solid blue indicates the device is connected to the established mesh network of the farm and is communicating with the base every 2 minutes
  2. It indicates that the device is ready to be installed onto the wetware and is online

Note: The LED next to the spigot symbol should not light up.

Connect the hoses on the 2” wetware to the hose attachments/spouts on the dome
1. The shorter hose goes to the lower attachment/spout on the dome. The longer hose attaches to the top attachment/spout on the dome.
  1. Shorter hose, shorter distance. Longer hose, longer distance
2. Tighten the hose nuts by hand and then use a wrench to turn them ¼ turn

The hose attachments on the dome can move if you need them to; rotate if necessary.
Attach the hoses to the dome before you seat the dome onto the wetware. This makes it easier to get the hoses onto the dome. Attach the small hose first.

Place the dome onto the 2” wetware that has been installed onto the manifold.
- Make sure that the flat part of the dome is placed near the inlet side of the dome and that it is completely flush with the wetware. This contains the magnet that connects with the flow meter.

Note: If the portion of the dome is not flush with the wetware, the flow sensor will not function properly.

Take the threaded nut from the bag and use your Lumo wrench or needle nose pliers to place it in the hole at the top of the dome. Tighten by hand until tight.
Place the second nut onto the black pole in the center of the dome. There is a small square on one side that will fit the tip of the diaphragm - make sure that side is down
Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, place the screw into the hole that is now facing up. Tighten it (you may need to hold the nut in place while tightening)
Take the Lumo wrench or needle nose pliers and spin the top nut left until it has risen to just below the small line at the top of the hole in the center of the dome. This is loosening the diaphragm. If you don’t loosen this nut, water won’t flow when you test.
Place the cap/disk on the center of the dome and press down, it should snap into place.
Check that there are no kinks in the hoses.
