 4  Connections and Components    Radio LEDs - The Radio TX LED (green) flashes each time a radio packet is sent. This LED will blink rapidly while searching for the radio network. - The Radio RX LED (red) blinks on each received radio packet.  Status LEDs - The Active LED (green) will blink at boot up and will blink quickly when the sensor is being read. - The ERROR LED (red) will blink to indicate an error condition.  Zero Button - The Zero button allows the sensor to be zeroed when the unit is installed, and the hatch is in the closed position.  This is only used in Thief Hatch mode   Checkin Button - If this button is pressed the Tilt Scout will take a sensor reading and send the data to the gateway.

 5 Setup  The Tilt Scout must be configured for correct operation before being fielded. The configurable items include: - Tilt Scout Mode - Modbus Slave ID - Network selection - Corporate ID or Encryption - Node Name  All settings are made using the SignalFire Toolkit PC application and SignalFire 4-pin USB cable (Serial-4PIN).    Using the SignalFire Toolkit The SignalFire Toolkit application can be downloaded at www.signal-fire.com/customer. After installation, launch the software and the main toolkit window will open:    Select the COM port associated with the Tilt Scout and click “Auto-Detect Device on COM Port.” This will open the device configuration window, where all device settings can be configured.  WARNING: Perform the steps in this section (Setup) in a safe location only. AVERTISSEMENT: Les étapes de démarrage (setup) doivent être fait dans une zone sécuritaire. SignalFire Telemetry Rev 1.4

 7 Tilt Scout Mode The default operation mode for the Tilt Scout is “Thief Hatch Mode”.  When the Tilt Scout is to be used for Pump Jack Monitoring the mode must be changed.  From the ‘Settings’ menu, select ‘Mode’, then select ‘Pump Jack Mode’.  Note that the device Modbus register map changes with the configured mode setting.   Network Setting The network is set using the SignalFire Toolkit. The network, network group, and corporate ID  settings must match those of the gateway (and other nodes) in order for them to communicate   Encryption It is possible to encrypt over-the-air transmissions to prevent tampering. Encryption keys replace the Corporate ID system, so it is important that all devices connected to a Gateway have the same encryption key as well as network and network group number.  To set up a device to use encryption, click the checkbox labeled Enable Encryption inside the Set Corporate ID box:  The encryption key box. For more details, click the Help button.  The box will then change into a Set Encryption Key box, and it will prompt instead for the encryption key you would like to use. Note that keys may not contain spaces or angle brackets. Enter it and then press Set. This will cause the Sentinel to drop its network, and only attempt to join networks that use the same encryption key. If you are setting up a new network, you will need to set the encryption key on all of your devices. If you are adding a Sentinel to a legacy network, you can simply set the Corporate ID without clicking the Enable Encryption box, and it will remain compatible with the older system.    Setting the encryption key.  It is also possible to hide your encryption key, so it cannot be read. This is the most secure option, but if you forget your key, there is no way to recover it – you will have to reset the key on every device on its network. To enable this option, select Set Encryption Key Unrecoverable under the Settings menu.    SignalFire Telemetry Rev 1.4
 8 Mounting Requirements  The sensor technology used does not require a specific orientation for installation, the device can be installed in any orientation or angle.  A suitable bracket must be used to adapt the Tilt Scout to a hatch cover or to the arm of a pump jack.    The drawing below shows the dimension of the mounting holes available.            WARNING: The Tilt Scout must be mounted in a location free of high vibrations. Over time vibrations can damage the Tilt Scout or battery pack, which could impair its safety ratings.  Do not mount directly to continuous vibrating equipment such as pumps or compressors.    AVERTISSEMENT: Le Tilt Scout doit être monté dans un endroit sans vibrations élevées. Au fil du temps, les vibrations peuvent endommager le Flux Totalizer ou la batterie, ce qui pourrait nuire à ses cotes de sécurité. Ne pas monter directement sur des équipements vibrants continus tels que des pompes ou des compresseurs.    WARNING: The Tilt Scout must be securely mounted such that it cannot sustain a fall.  Failure to do this may impact the safety rating of the device AVERTISSEMENT:  Le Tilt Scout doit être solidement fixé de sorte qu'il ne puisse pas supporter une chute. Ne pas le faire peut affecter la cote de sécurité de l'appareil SignalFire Telemetry Rev 1.4
 9 Sensor Zeroing – Thief Hatch Mode Only  Once the monitor has been secured to the hatch, its angle sensor must be calibrated. The hatch must be fully closed and latched before zeroing.  Press and hold the ZERO button for about 2 seconds (until the status LED turns on), then release.  Wait approx. 5 seconds for the sensor to go through its internal calibration and zeroing process.  If successful, the status LED will blink 3 times.  If the calibration fails (due to movement), the red error LED will blink 3 times, if this happens the zero process must be done again.   Remote Modbus Register Mapping  The Tilt Scout sends data to a SignalFire Telemetry Modbus Gateway, available at the gateway in registers where it can then be read by a Modbus RTU.  This data is accessible at same Slave ID that was configured for the Tilt Scout.
