The goal of this guide is to give you an understanding of how the Prism TM2 functions and how the different systems it uses function, as well as, how to install the Prism TM2 itself. As you make your way through this guide, you will start to become familiar with many aspects of the Prism TM2, however, nothing will replace the hands-on experience of installing a unit and seeing how it functions in person. It is hoped that you will use this guide as a reference to give you guidance whenever a problem is encountered. This guide starts with a discussion of the physical characteristics of the Prism TM2 and the equipment it requires to function. Next is a brief introduction to the systems the Prism TM2 relys upon to do it’s job.
