Check Instrument Depth
At this point, if convenient, you can connect the Aqua
TROLL 200 to a PC, launch the software, and take a
reading. If the instrument is at the desired depth, secure it
in position as suggested below, or reposition as necessary.
If you set the software to “Remind me later” to set a Level
Reference, enter the level reference after installation when
prompted.
Secure the Cable
The RuggedCable includes a Kellems® grip near the
surface end. You can slide it along the cable to the desired
position by compressing it. When you pull on it, the grip
tightens and stops sliding. You may need to pull on both
ends of the Kellems grip to properly tighten it and keep it
from slipping.
Use the loop of the Kellems grip to anchor the cable to a
convenient stationary object. It works well with In-Situ’s
well dock installation ring. Simply insert the loop into the
locking clip on the well dock, and position the assembly
on the top of a well.
