Specification Overview
The Smith Electronic Crude Oil Gathering System
consists of three components a TCP cab-mounted
flow computer. an optional transceiver for RF com—
munications, and the routing and dispatch data
processing software. The heart of the system is the
TCP-CO microprocessor-based flow computer,
specifically designed for the custody transfer of
crude oil at production lease sites. The TOP—HAD
data processing software is a Windows—based appli-
cation designed to streamline and organize the
routing and dispatch of tank trucks for crude oil
gathering tank collection operations. The optional
transceiver transmits data between the TOP-HAD
and TOP-CO.
The Smith TCP~CO is a microprocessor-based, fully
programmable. electronic truck-mounted computer
deSigned for the recording of crude oil transported
by truck between oil tank (producer) and pipeline,
which is con5|dered a custody transfer.

Section II - Installation
The installation section of this manual describes the
requirements for installing the TOP-CO crude oil
gathering system on a truck. The TCPVCO system
includes the ST Mass Meter. a Flow Switch, the
TOP-CO electronics and the transceiver (if using FlF
communications). The mass meter and the Flow
SWitch are mounted on the back of the truck cab as
shown in Figure 4. The TCPVCO electronics is
mounted inside the truck cab and the RF Trans-
ceiver (if used) is mounted in the control room (non-
hazardous conditions),
More: This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These Ii its are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the
equipment Is operated in a commercial environ-
ment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not In-
stalled and used in accordance with the instruc-
tion manual, may cause harmtul interference to
radio communication.
This equipment has been shipped with all ac-
cessories, approved by Smith Meter, that are
necessary for proper operation. Changes or
modifications to the equipment not expressly
approved by Smith Meter could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area
or operating non-approved modified equipment
is likely to cause harmful interference In which
case the user will be required to correct the in-
lerterence at his own expense.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the
intended application and location of this equip-
ment is non-hazardous (ordinary location). En-
sure that all national and local codes are oh-
sewed.
Mechanical
The mechanical installation of the system involves
four parts: the electronics. the meter, the meter sup-
port and the Flow Switch.
Electronics
Installation of the TCP-CO
1. Locate the TCP~C0 unit in the truck cab where it
is easily accessible for wiring using the hard-
ware provided.
2. It using the optional RF communications to
communicate with the control room, the TCP-
CO should be located so that it is on a “line of
sight" path to the transceiver.
3. For details on the wiring of the unit, see Figure 6.
Installation of the RF Transceiver (optional)
The RF Transceiver, it used, should be located next
to the computer in the control room. If the radio fre-
quency communications is not used, a communica—
tion line can be wired from the TCP-CO to the com
puter. When using the radio frequency communica-
tions the transceiver should be located so that there
is a line of sight between the transceiver and the
TCP~CO unit. The maximum communication dis-
tance for the RF communications is 100 feet.
1. Locate the AC power adapter and shielded se~
rial cable supplies with the RF Transmitter.
2. Position the RF Transceiver in a "line of sight”
path to the TCP-CO location.
3. Plug the AC power adapter into the power Jack
on the rear of the HF Transmitter.
4. Connect the RF Transmitter to the control room
PC usmg the shielded serial cable.
5. Plug the AC power adapter into a 110 Vac out—
let.
6. Verify that the “POWER" LED on the front of the
RF Transceiver is on.
7. Turn on the PC and verify that the computer
starts properly.
8. Installation of the RF Transceiver is complete.
Note: A “line of sight" pain is usually a visual path between the
antenna ol the RF Transmitter and the war. if the building is a
male! slfuctu/a or metal was used in the framing a! the building,
than the HF Transmitter will work best when placed in a window.
The Window should not have an embedded metal safely gnu. Thrs
type or wrndaw wiii significantly reduce Ihe effective range of
communications

Flow Switch
1.
The Flow Switch is to be mounted in the one-
inch threadolet on the downstream side at the
meter. The arrow on the bottom of the Flow
Switch casting indicates the direction of flow.
Turn the Flow Switch until tight and the arrow on
the body casting is pointed in the direction of the
flow.
The gasket seal located between the main body
casting and the lid casting is a Teflon composi-
tion which is subject to a slight creep tor a short
period after the application oi the initial clamping
load. All gaskets are properly clamped before
shipment; however, during shipping and storage
the gaskets may compress, allowing the body»lid
clamp bolts to become slightly loose. Tighten
these bolts before assembling the flow swnch in
the system. No further creep of the gasket Will
occur after the second tightening
