1. Introduction
The XT-1010 is a wireless ZigBee sensor that pairs with the XT-4860G5 generally known as the Base
Unit to provide inclination data based on a 3-axis digital accelerometer readout with an accuracy of
±1 degree. Additional general purpose digital IO sensors can also be queried and transmitted to the
XT-4860G5. The XT-1010 leverages a high efficiency solar energy harvesting platform to support long
term, remote deployments without the burden of frequent battery replacement. This installation
guide describes the physical hardware, associated parts, mounting options, and a quick start-up
procedure.

4. Quick Start Guide
4.1 Device Installation
The XT1010 (Sensor unit) pairs with the XT-4860G5 (Base unit) and provides inclinometer data
based on the on-board 3-axis digital accelerometer output which in turn is transmitted to end
user Server over the cellular network. The proper installation of the unit is critical to acquiring
accurate inclinometer data. An application note entitled “Installing and Pairing the XT-4860 and
XT-1010 for Wireless Inclinometer Functionality” contains detailed instructions for installing and
pairing the two devices. This quick start guide will give you basic steps for installation and
pairing of the two devices. Refer to the application note for any additional detail and instructions.
When installing the device, make sure the Base unit (XT-4860G5) faces the Sensor unit (XT-1010)
Each Unit has a label near the 8-pin Connector to show the direction of device installation. The
Base and the Sensor must be on the same plane and facing each other for optimal performance.
The picture below illustrates the ideal orientation of the two devices
As an example, below depicts possible mounting positions of the two Units for a man-lift
application.

4.2 Pairing the XT1010Z and the XT4860G5
With both Base and Sensor units properly oriented, the pairing process of the two devices can
begin. Note that only one Sensor unit can be paired with one Base unit. During the pairing process,
the devices are calibrated and normalized relative to each other. Once the calibration is complete,
the Devices must not be moved or repositioned.
To begin the pairing process, press the black button located near the circular connector on the
side of the Base unit for 5 seconds. You should see the amber LED light (marked with “Z”) flashing
4 times per second. This LED pattern signifies that the Base unit is searching for the Sensor unit
that it is meant to pair with. There is a 60-second window for the pairing process to complete. If
the pairing process was not successful within 60 seconds, then the unit will return to its
configured normal state and the process needs to be repeated if pairing is still needed. At any
time during pairing, the process can be stopped or reset by pressing and holding the button on
either device for 15 seconds, then releasing, or by simply waiting for a timeout.
During the Base unit 60-second pairing time, press and hold the pairing button on the Sensor unit
for 5 seconds. The green LED (marked with a “C”) will flash 4 times per second as well. A typical
pairing process takes about 3 to 5 seconds after pressing the pairing buttons of both Units. After
successful pairing, the Base unit’s orange LED will turn off and the Sensor unit’s green LED will
turn solid for 30 seconds, then it will turn off. After the pairing process, the Sensor unit will
automatically send inclinometer data to the base unit at a rate of 1 sample per 5 seconds.
4.3 Un-pairing Devices
To un-pair a set of paired XT-4860 and XT-1010 devices, press and hold the button on the XT-
4860 device for 15 seconds, then release. That device will attempt to notify its XT-1010 pair of
the pairing reset. There is no LED feedback for a pairing reset. The pairing reset can be performed
individually on an XT-4860 or XT-1010 device if the paired device is no longer present.
