Wiring external power cable and ground to connector on EMUX

3. Reseat the connector (with the cable now attached) into the 4-

pin port on the EMUX.

4. Run and connect the external power cable to the power supply

and then connect to the power source. Refer to Chapter 5,
External Power, for information and instructions on installing a
power supply and connecting to the power source.

5. Contact a remote support analyst (with access to the Internet

and the Profile software). Provide the IP address and site
name and then have the analyst attempt to communicate with
the flow monitor and perform standard diagnostics or a data
collect.

6. Have the analyst verify the signal strength of the antenna is

higher than –85. Valid signal strength can range from -111 to -
51, with -51 being the highest/best possible signal strength and
-111 the lowest/worst possible signal strength. A signal
strength of less than -90 is considered poor and will result in
poor communication and a higher power drain. It also is likely
to have a negative impact during both data collection and
monitor configuration.

Note: Even the material of which a non-metallic
enclosure housing the EMUX is made may impact the
strength of the signal available. If the enclosure is
significantly reducing the signal strength, consider
