I need help wiring a rainbird rain sensor to the ii800. The one provided does not work for me.  
This is a 4 wire sensor… red,black,white and dark green.  
Red and black 24v power? White sensor? Green common?  
Resolved. Both red and black connected to individual 24v. Yellow jumper MUST be connected to S2. Green wire to S1. White to common.
