The kit is intended to be mounted on a 10’ x 2” conduit pole.
Solar Panel
- Mount the solar panel to the 2” pole using the provided 2” U-bolts.
- Make sure the panel is facing south and has an unobstructed view of the sky to allow for maximum charging.
- Use zip ties to secure the excess wire to the pole.
- Run the solar panel wire into one of the enclosure's side cord grips.
Enclosure
- Mount the enclosure beneath the solar panel onto the 2” pole, at eye level, using the provided hose clamps.
Antenna
- Install the MIMO antenna by pealing the protective cover off the self-adhesive backing, place it on top of the enclosure, and push down to ensure a secure bond.
- Run the antenna wires into one of the enclosure's side cord grips.
- One coax cable labeled “Main” will be screwed onto the connector labeled "Cell."
- The other coax cable labeled “Aux” will be screwed into the connector labeled "Diversity."
Pressure Transmitter
- Install the pressure transmitter inlet port into the valve at the point you want to monitor pressure such as valve on pipeline or valve riser.
- Use Teflon tape on port threads to ensure sealed connection.
- After transmitter is installed, open the valve and check for leaks.
- Run the wiring from the pressure transmitter into the enclosure via a 1/2"cord grip.
- Connect the black wire from the transmitter to bottom terminal strip #8.
- Connect the Signal wire from the transmitter to bottom terminal strip #9.
- Connect the 12V+ red wire from transmitter to bottom terminal strip #6.
Power
Battery
The battery will be placed in the bottom of the enclosure.
- Connect red wire from battery positive to bottom terminal strip #3.
- Connect black wire to negative to bottom terminal strip #4.
Solar Panel
- Connect black or blue wire to match negative on bottom terminal strip #2.
- Connect red or brown wire to match positive on bottom terminal strip #1.
Solar Charge Controller
The wiring between the controller and the terminal strip has been prewired for you.
WARNING: When wiring the battery and solar panel to the terminal blocks, always connect the battery first, then the solar panel. When removing wires from the terminal blocks, reverse the above action and disconnect the solar panel then the battery. Connecting the solar panel to the terminal blocks with no battery load can possibly damage the solar charge controller.
Modem
The wiring between the modem and the terminal strip has been prewired for you.
When powering up for the first time it can take several minutes for the modem to register to the network.
- When power is applied the power light will turn red and stay red for up to 30 seconds, it will then turn Green and start searching for available carriers.
- The Network and Signal lights will then both turn Red and begin flashing indicating its searching.
- When a Network is found, the LED will turn Green and begin to blink, once locked to a carrier it will turn to a solid Green.
- The Signal LED will continue to flash and may turn solid.
- Flashing/solid Green LED indicates very good signal.
- Flashing/solid Yellow means good/ok signal.
- If the Signal LED is flashing/solid Red, this means it has a poor/weak signal.
General Input Layout
Note: Transmitter signal wire color may vary. Due to supply chain issues, we might have to order different size transmitters that have different PSI ratings. Take note of PSI as this will be needed during the device set up process. If you are unsure about wiring colors, please call to verify.
For installation of kits at towers, please provide the tower height and capacity to our support team. If the transmitter is installed above or below ground, we need to know the distance from the bottom of the tower to the transmitter for accurate level calculation. Please use the support phone number below to verify.
Mobile Application Setup
Each unit is set up in the eLynx application prior to shipment with the IMEI number of the kit for the name.
