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.

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).
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.
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.

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.

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 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
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.

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.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by SignalFire Telemetry, Inc could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
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. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. 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 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 is connected.
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device has been designed to operate with the permanently soldered antenna. No other antenna may be
used.
To comply with FCC’s and IC’s RF radiation exposure requirements, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter
must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is maintained between the radiator
(antenna) & user’s/nearby person’s body at all times and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
This device complies with Industry Canada’s license-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:(1) This device may not cause interference; and (2) This device must accept any interference,
including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts
de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas
produire de brouillage, et (2) l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le
brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
