This guide explains how to install Bullhorn RM1250 units, as well as how to configure the units for service using
Bullhorn Tools configuration software or mobile application (Bullhorn Tools Mobile).
The RM1250 remote monitoring unit accurately, regularly, and reliably calculates gas or liquid volume by
measuring the digital pulse output from a positive displacement (PD), gas, or lease automatic custody transfer
meter (LACT). Meter readings are automatically uploaded via cellular communications to Bullhorn Web (
https://
www.bullhornsys.com
), where they can be used to calculate the volume of gas delivered to customers, optimize
the system, and/or populate a gas measurement database. The RM1250 is a fully-integrated unit that is easily
installed. All components, including the antenna, are internal. This design makes it easier to transport, install, and
maintain. The RM1250 can be installed either as a stand alone device, installed with an attached index, or
installed on an existing index using an adapter.
