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.

CAUTION:

This device is required to comply with FCC RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting

devices. A separation of 20 cm (8 inches) or more must be maintained between the antenna and

all persons during device operations to satisfy RF exposure compliance.

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.
