INSTALLATION - SENSOR LOCATION
1. Choose a sensor mounting location where silt or deposits are least likely to accumulate.
2. For best results flow should be evenly distributed across the channel and relatively free of turbulence.
(The Stingray is very effective at averaging level and velocity readings in turbulent conditions, but best
accuracy and response time is achieved with evenly distributed flow.)
3. Avoid vertical drops, obstructions or elbows immediately up and downstream from the sensor. Locate
the QZ02L sensor at least 10 times maximum Head (level) and 10 times the channel width from these
flow disturbances.
QZ02L VELOCITY-LEVEL SENSOR MOUNTING
Mount the QZ02L sensor with the
stainless steel bracket and hardware
supplied. Ensure that the sensor is parallel
to the water surface (check with a level).
Mount with the tapered end of the sensor
pointing upstream and the sensor cable
pointing downstream.
Clip or tie wrap the sensor cable securely
to the pipe or channel wall.

OPTIONAL PIPE BAND MOUNTING WITH QZ02L SENSOR
Install the stainless steel pipe band with the sensor
mounting bracket at the invert (bottom) of the pipe. Ensure
that the sensor bracket is parallel to the water surface
(check with a level). Mount so the tapered end of the
sensor will point upstream and the sensor cable will point
downstream. (Turn the ¼” hex nut clockwise to expand the
bracket and secure to the pipe wall by friction fit.)
Insert the sensor into the mounting bracket and clip or tie wrap the sensor cable securely to the stainless
steel pipe band as illustrated.
ENCLOSURE INSTALLATION
Close the Stingray cover and ensure that the sensor cable connector is tightened snugly for a watertight
seal (do not damage the connector by over tightening the coupling). Wipe the enclosure cover gasket
with a clean cloth to remove dirt or grit before closing.
Use a chain or mounting bracket to hang the enclosure from the manhole ladder or any available secure
location. The enclosure should be located above the high water level so that it will not be accidentally
submerged.
Stingray is rated for operation from -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). The batteries will not function below
the rated temperature. To prevent overheating, avoid mounting the enclosure in direct sunlight.
Stingray enclosure is rated IP67, watertight and dustproof.

START-UP
When you connect to a Stingray for the first time follow this procedure:
1. Use Communication/Connection Setup to configure your PC for communications.
2. Use Real Time Monitor to configure the logging frequency and click Write to initialize logging,
date and time. Date and time are read by the Stingray from your PC.
3. Use Retrieve DataLog to download log files from a Stingray.
CONNECTION SETUP
Configure communications with the Stingray
through the Communication menu.
Select Connection Setup.
Refer to the Greyline Logger Help file
for detailed instructions. Select the
Connection Type according to your PC
setup.
Use Standard PC serial port if your PC or
laptop has an RS232 port, otherwise use
a USB to RS232 converter and select
USB Using virtual com port.
Stingray baud rate is fixed at 28800 and Greyline Logger baud rate must be set at 28800 to match.

REAL TIME MONITOR
Select Data Logging/Real Time Monitor
ON to view ‘real-time’ level, velocity and
temperature from the connected Stingray.
Readings are updated every 10 seconds.
Remaining Logger capacity and
remaining battery power are indicated.
LOGGING INTERVAL
Use the Logging Settings selector to
change the Stingray’s logging interval,
then press the Write button to transmit
the new setting to the Stingray.
IMPORTANT: Write action deletes
existing log file and begins a new data
log. Download and save existing log files before executing Write.
The Stingray will take measurements for
10 seconds and record the sampled data.
It will then enter a low power "sleep"
mode for the remainder of the interval
time. While in sleep mode, the Stingray
consumes minimal power. This means
that the logging interval also determines
the battery life of the instrument. The
table below shows the maximum amount
of time the Stingray can log while at a
constant 68 °F (20 °C).
Low temperatures and varying battery
quality will reduce the amount of time
the Stingray can log until the batteries
need to be changed. Because of their
higher power capacity, and better low
temperature characteristics, it is
recommended that only premium quality
Alkaline D-cell batteries (Energizer E95
or Duracell MN1300) be used in the
Stingray.
NOTE: It is a good practice to download
and save an existing log file and then
install new batteries when you start (Write) a new data log.
