If data is being read from this location, then ensure
that the repeater network is appropriately located
and functional.
9.1.4 Receiver Not Configured Correctly
Check receiver configuration to ensure it is set up
to receive data from this particular Smart RTU unit
(refer to receiver user instructions).
If none of the above solutions are successful in
getting data reception at the receiver, contact the
factory for additional support.
9.2 Inaccurate or Missing Data
If the data being read from the Smart RTU unit is
either inaccurate or missing, this could have
several causes:
Incorrect/loose cable connections
Unit configuration incorrect
Inaccurate sensor calibration
Incorrect receiver configuration
Sensors not installed correctly on equipment
9.2.1 Incorrect/Loose Cable Connections
Ensure the sensor cables to the Smart RTU are in
accordance with the wiring diagram supplied with
the unit. Reconnect all sensor wires to ensure tight
connections on wiring (ensure terminal blocks are
not clamped down on insulation of wires).
9.2.2 Unit Configuration Incorrect
If the inaccurate/missing data problem is across all
sensors, reload the original configuration for the
Smart RTU unit (see PSP user instructions).
9.2.3 Inaccurate Sensor Calibration
If the data received on certain channels/sensors is
not accurate, recalibrate those sensors (see PSP
user instructions).
9.2.4 Incorrect Receiver Configuration
Refer to receiver instructions to confirm correct
configuration. If necessary, contact factory to
reload receiver configuration settings.
9.2.5 Sensors Not Installed Correctly on
Equipment
Check physical installation of sensors on
equipment being monitored.
9.3 No Data Recorded on VB-103-TAM
If no data is being stored to the VB-103-TAM unit,
this could have several causes:
Incorrect/loose sensor cable connections
Loose VB-103-TAM connection
Low battery on VB-103-TAM
Incorrect VB-103-TAM log interval
configuration
9.3.1 Incorrect/Loose Sensor Cable
Connections
Ensure the sensor cables to the Smart RTU are in
accordance with the wiring diagram supplied with
the unit. Reconnect all sensor wires to ensure tight
connections on wiring (ensure terminal blocks are
not clamped down on insulation of wires).
9.3.2 Loose VB-103-TAM Connection
Ensure the VB-103-TAM and Smart RTU 6-pin
amphenol style ports are free from dust and debris.
Use compressed moisture free air to blow out any
debris if needed.
Disconnect and reconnect the VB-103-TAM from
the Smart RTU unit. Ensure that VB-103-TAM is
completely and fully threaded onto the Smart RTU
6-pin amphenol style connector (tighten VB-103-
TAM onto amphenol style connector, push VB-103-
TAM gently onto connector and then tighten further
until it will go no further to ensure proper
connection).
9.3.3 Low Battery on VB-103-TAM
Check to see if VB-103-TAM unit can be read on
an IPS Dock. If not, replace VB-103-TAM unit (the
VB-103-TAM battery is not user replaceable).
9.3.4 Incorrect VB-103-TAM Log Interval
Configuration
Connect the VB-103-TAM to the IPS Dock and
ensure the log interval is set to the expected value
(see IPS Dock user instructions for additional
details on how to perform this task).
9.4 No Lights on Lights or Display
Accessories
If no lights are flashing on the RTU-OVAL or RTU-
SAL-X lights accessories or no data is shown on
the RTU-SID-X display, this could have several
causes:
Unit not powered up
Loose wiring connections
9.4.1 Unit Not Powered Up
Verify battery and power supply/solar panel fuses
are connected and not blown (refer to included
wiring diagram for where these fuses are located).
1. Open the power supply/solar panel fuse.
2. Read battery level using voltmeter connected
to battery terminals. If the battery level is
