If not, try again or see troubleshooting.2Setup the TransmitterMount the transmitter onto the tank you would like to measure/monitor. Use screws or other means to mount it properly. Pic 1 is an example for a typical cistern.Mounting the transmitterPTLevel transmitterDrill hole for tubingCisternWiFi Connection SetupPic 1Setup the pressure chamberBelow is an illustration on how to connect the pressure chamber using the provided clamp, bushing, and tube.After the PTLevel is mounted, run the black tube through any necessary holes before proceeding to the next step.Depending on the device you are using, find where you can see the list of available WiFi signals. If you need more help with this, see our YouTube videos.Lower the pressure chamberOnce the black tubing is fully connected and sealed tight, lower the pressure chamber into the liquid volume and allow it to lower to the bottom slowly. See the Overview on the other side.Note: Do not drop the chamber in an empty tank or it could break.Note: You can cut the black tube shorter if you need, just pull it out of the liquid before you disconnect any of the tubing. Check the wireless connectionPress the connect button on the side of the PTLevel transmitter. If the status LED blinks three times slowly, you are connected! See the troubleshooting on the other side if the LED does not blink three times slowly.3Setup OnlineCreate an accountVisit www.ptdevices.com and select “Sign Up” if you don’t already have an account.

Try moving the receiver closer to your WiFi router.• Ensure that the password you are entering is correct during the setup. You can check by trying the password with another device. Note: WiFi passwords are case sensitive.Level is not reading accurately• Pull the weight out of the liquid volume, let it drain and replace it back in the liquid. This resets the air pressure.• Check for any possible air leaks along the tubing and connections.• Check for any water in the small back tube by applying a slight vacuum to it.Transmitter status conditions• Three blinks slowly after pressing the connect button. Successful connection• Two quick flashes after pressing the connect button. Cannot find/connect to the receiver. See below.Receiver and Transmitter not connecting• Check the distance and the objects in between. Try moving the transmitter closer to see if a connection can be established.• Transmitter and receiver may not be linked for some reason. Please contact us about this.We recommend that once a season you remove the pressure chamber from the liquid volume, let it drain, then replace it into the liquid again. This resets the air pocket and will keep the reading as accurate as possible. Press the “connect” button on the transmit-ter to update the online level. You should also re-calibrate.1. Measure the amount of liquid in the tank.2. Divide that measurement by the full empty depth of the tank.Ie: 72” of water / 144” tank height = 0.53. Multiply the above result with 100 to get the current percentage.Ie: 0.5 * 100 = 50%4. Enter the result from step 3 into the calibration input online.5. Press the “Connect” button on the Transmitter to ensure that the calibration is updated online.Make sure that your device is functioning and connected online first.Battery ReplacementSimply remove the four screws on the PTLevel transmitter lid. Pull off the lid and the batteries will be visible.Need Assistance?Visit www.ptlevel.com/need_helpNeed Assistance?Visit www.ptlevel.com/need_helpFCC Regulatory ComplianceWarning: changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
