This guide explains how to install and configure Bullhorn RM4210 and RM4211 units. Units are configured for 
service using Bullhorn

®

 Tools configuration software or mobile application (Bullhorn Tools Mobile). 

The RM4210 and RM4211 are fully-integrated units that are easily mounted on top (or side) of a coupon test 
station. All components, including the antenna, are internal. This design makes it easier to transport, install, and 
maintain. The RM4210 can measure induced AC voltage, AC current, and associated current density, which can 
be present on pipelines that are co-located with high voltage AC power lines. Measurements are automatically 
uploaded via satellite communication to Bullhorn Web (

www.bullhornsys.com

).
