RF Exposure Notice (509)
• The antenna of this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna
or transmitter.
• The device should be installed so that people will not come within 20 cm (8 in.) of the antenna.
• This equipment has been tested and found to comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules, and with Industry
Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver disconnected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced Radio/TV technician for help.

Inspect the Pulser Cable
• Inspect the end of the pulser
cable that will connect to the
IMU.
– There should be three wires
exiting the outside insulation.
– The red and black wires are
insulated.
– The 3rd wire is bare coming out
of outside insulation, with a
white sleeve on the end.
• If needed, trim the pulser wires
so the conductor is flush with
the insulation and sleeve.
Insert photo
Pulser installation onto the gas meter is not
covered here. Refer to the pulser
manufacturer’s installation instructions.

Inspect the IMU
• Verify that the IMU has 3 wires
• Verify that the enclosure is not
cracked and that the MAC Address
label is present
• Verify that the
battery
connectors are
undamaged.
• Verify
If the IMU is damaged, return it to your supervisor and get a replacement.

Connect the Pulser to the IMU
•Thread the pulser cable through
the cable seal connector.
•Thread the pulser cable through
the tie wrap.
•Connect the 3 cables with the gel
splices.
– Do not strip the insulation from
the wires.
– Insert the wire pair (red and red,
black and black, white and
white) to be connected into a gel
splice; push all the way forward.
– Close the gel splice by squeezing
the gel splice with pliers.
– Repeat for the 3 pairs of wires

Connect the Pulser to the IMU
• Make sure the 3 gel splices are to
the right of the cable tie.
• Tighten the cable tie. This
provides extra strain relief for the
cable.
• Trim the cable tie.
• Leave 1” of cable slack inside the
IMU, and pull the rest of the
cable out of the cable seal
connector.
• Tighten the cable seal connector.

Connect the Battery Cable Connector
•Connect the battery cable to the
IMU cable. The connectors are
keyed; you will not need to force
them together.
•Put the battery inside the battery
compartment as shown.
– The connector fits underneath
the battery.
– The flat part of the battery
should be next to the inside wall.

13
Program the IMU for Field Use
• Slowly pass the service magnet
once (for 2 to 5 seconds) over the
top of the IMU.
• Watch for the light-emitting diode
(LED) to flash on the lower left
corner of the IMU circuit board
– If you don’t see the LED flash,
make sure the battery cable
connections are made.
– If you still don’t see the LED flash
after checking that all the battery
connections are made and reswiping the magnet, return the IMU
to your supervisor. Insert photo
• Configure the IMU with the
programming tool. (Field
Configuration is a separate document).

Inspect the Gasket and Fasten the Cover
•
Re-inspect the gasket to
ensure it seals the area
between the enclosure and
cover. Insert photo
•
Fasten the cover to the
enclosure with the 4 cover
screws.
•

Attach the IMU Enclosure to the Mounting Plate
• Determine where you want to
install the IMU. This will
determine if the plate should
attach to the pipe horizontally or
vertically.
The photos here show a vertical attachment.
• Attach the IMU enclosure to the
mounting plate with the 2 screws
and 2 flanged nuts.
• Torque the screws to…

Attach the IMU and Mounting Plate to the Pipe
• Guide the metal clamp through
the slot in the mounting plate.
• Wrap the metal clamp around
the pipe.
• Tighten the metal clamp around
the pipe by torquing the screw to
12-20 in lb.
