RF Transmitter Installation Instructions
The USTC TED transmitter should only be installed by qualified service personnel.
The transmitter detects status or other data signals from the external binary inputs and low
battery and broadcasts that data to the system's CTS sites.
MOUNTING LOCATION
The USTC TED Transmitter is an RTU as defined by the FCC.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Supply the transmitter with DC power by inserting three 3-Volt batteries into the battery
holder inside the transmitter.
2. The unit will come pre-programmed with Transmitter ID. There will be field programming
of the unit for other parameters.
3. As the TED will be used to transmit utility-meter information to the CTS, the TED will be
located next to electric, water, or gas meters.
4. When installing the TED you should avoid areas near screens, metal window frames,
circuit breaker boxes, air conditioners and heaters if a suitable location for the unit may be
found elsewhere.
TESTING THE TRANSMITTER
Following system installation, system testing is mandatory. This should be performed by
locating the TED in its final location and powering up the unit. On initial power-up, the TED
will send out RF messages every 4 seconds or more depending on programming. This will
establish communications with the CTS receiver and the information collected will then be
used to judge system performance
FCC NOTICE
The USTC TED transmitter generates and uses radio frequency energy. If not installed and
used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, it may cause interference to radio
and television reception. The transmitter has been tested and found to comply with the
specifications in Part 95 of the FCC Rules.
If this equipment causes interference to radio or television reception - which can be
determined by turning the equipment on and off - the installer is encouraged to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures: 1) Reorient the antenna of the
radio/television. 2) Connect the AC transformer to a different outlet so the TED and
radio/television are on different branch circuits. 3) Relocate the TED with respect to the
radio/television.
FCC ID: OZ9USTC-TED-0002I
If necessary, the installer should consult an experienced radio/television technician for
additional suggestions, or send for the "Interference Handbook" prepared by the Federal
Communications Commission. This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing
Office, Washington, D.C., 20402, stock number 004-000-00450-7.
