No user maintenance is required! There are no user
adjustments or calibrations that can be performed in the field.
Each TTA-SIM is tested and calibrated at the factory. An
operating TTA-SIM runs a continuous self check routine and
reports any discrepancies to the TTDM-128 or host computer.
If the TTA-SIM or the network wiring fails in such a way that
the TTA-SIM cannot communicate with the host, then the host
reports the failure as a communications failure.
Status Indicators
There are 5 LED’s on the TTA-SIM-1A circuit board to indicate:
power, communications (inbound and outbound), sensor status
(leak detected and trouble). See Figure 9.
The green Power LED will be ON and will blink once every
5 seconds when the TTA-SIM is powered and fuctioning
correctly. Table 1 lists various sensor status conditions and
possible corrective actions. Table 2 lists communication status
conditions (applicable when the TTA-SIM is used in a
network system).

Status Indicators
There are 5 LEDs on the TTA-SIM-2 to indicate: power,
communications (RX=inbound and TX=outbound), sensor status
(leak detected and trouble). There is also a Reset pushbutton
which is used to acknowledge or reset alarms or for updating the
location display. See Figure 10 for the location of the LEDs and
RESET pushbutton.
The green Power LED will be ON and will blink once every 5 seconds
when the TTA-SIM-2 is powered and fuctioning correctly. Table 3
lists various sensor status conditions and possible corrective
actions. Table 4 lists communication status conditions
(applicable when the TTA-SIM is used in a network system).
