Chapter 6: Test the Installation

It is imperative that alarm points are tested and that alarm notifications are received 

so they can be acknowledged by the customer or end-user once the unit is put into 

production. This includes phone numbers, text messages, email addresses, fax 

numbers, and pager numbers. 

Additionally, it is recommended that the customer or end-user test all alarm points every 

six months to ensure all electrical components and alarm parameters are still functioning 

as desired and that alarms are being received and acknowledged by recipients. Refer to 

the Spring Cleaning/Fall Fix-up document for testing procedures. 

Complete the following tests prior to leaving the job site:

1.  Confirm AC power. Use a voltmeter across the AC terminal to verify ~12–14 VAC is 

present.   

2.  Test the battery. Remove the AC fuse and confirm the RTU stays online. Replace the 

AC fuse.

3.  Test the radio connection. Check the radio status on the LCD screen. It should read 

“connected.” If not, call Technical Support at (877) 993-1911 option 2.

4.  Inspect the status on the LCD. Analog, digitals, etc.  

5.  Test the digital alarm inputs. Put each digital input into an alarm state. From 

the touch screen press digital and confirm inputs respond as expected. Mission 

Technical Support is available to confirm that data is being properly transmitted and 

received on your web portal. A smartphone can be used otherwise.

6.  Test the pump runtime inputs. Turn on pump 1. Mission D1 should respond on the 

touch screen. If not, check the wiring and/or end-of-line resistors. Repeat step for 

pump 2 and 3, if used. 

7.  Test the high level alarm. Open the wet well. Pull the high-level float up and put it into 

alarm condition by tipping it. Ensure that the digital input four respond. If not, check 

the wiring and the high level float itself.
