Pre-Installation Component Setup and Functional Check
The steps below describe the process of verifying the Wireless System component functionality; listed steps are
only for one TLS RF. If there are more than 8 Sensors installed at the site, refer to Appendix B on how to setup the
DIP Switches for auxiliary TLS RF(s).
1.
Remove all the hardware from their boxes; lay the TLS RF, Receiver, Repeater, and all the Transmitters on a
table.
2.
Set Site ID for the Receiver, Repeater, and all the Transmitters (refer to Appendix B on how to set up the Site
ID). Typically the Site ID is set to 0 (default). If there is a nearby wireless site, the Site ID’s must be different.
3.
Set all Transmitter’s IDs and connect the battery cables to all the Transmitters. Label each Transmitter with its
set ID.
a. Using a #15 torx driver, remove the cover of the Transmitter.
b. Remove the nut from the battery cable cord grip (right side cord grip) and slide it over the non-connector
end of the battery cable.
c. Make sure the battery/dc power cable is not connected to the battery pack or dc power source at this time.
Push the battery cable through the battery cable cord grip bushing and into the Transmitter.
d. Strip back the cable jacket and wires as shown in Figure 4.
e. Connect the battery pack/dc power cable to the BATTERY terminal block (white to +IN and black to -IN) as
shown in Figure 5.
f.
Hand tighten both cable entry cord grip nuts to prevent water entry!
g. Replace the cover of the Transmitter, but do not tighten down cover screws at this time.

1.
Strip back cable and wire jackets the amount shown.
2.
Use a screwdriver with the proper blade width.
3.
Both wires must be tight in terminals!
