Warnings Warnings The following general warnings are related to the safe setup, use, grounding, maintenance and repair of this equipment. Additional more specific warnings may be found throughout the text of this manual where applicable. WARNING FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD When flammable fluids are present in the work area, such as gasoline and windshield wiper fluid, be aware that flammable fumes can ignite or explode. To help prevent fire and explosion: • Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
Typical Transceiver Installations Typical Transceiver Installations It is recommended that you locate the transceiver in the main part of the shop, near the meters and/or tank level monitors. If the transceiver is mounted outdoors, it must be placed into a protective water proof, non-metallic outside housing. Be sure to comply with all applicable local, state, and national fire, electrical, and safety regulations.

See FIG. 3. • The serial port connector (B) is used for the Transceiver to PC cable connection when RS232 cable is used to connect the transceiver to the Matrix PC.
Transceiver Connections Transceiver Connection/Wiring CAUTION Cable connections and wiring should always be done prior to powering on the transceiver. There are two connection/wiring options for connecting the Transceiver(s) to the PC. • • RS232 is for wiring distances of 100 ft (30.5 m) or less between the Transceiver and PC. RS422 is for wiring distances up to 4000 ft. (1219 m) between the transceiver and PC. J A H RS422 - wiring distances up to 4000 ft (1219 m).

Transceiver Connections Transceiver Dipswitch Settings Each is equipped with two, 4 - position dipswitches labeled S1 and S2. See FIG. 7. • Network ID (S1): This is the RF identification setting assigned to a Matrix installation. All components in the system use this same Network ID. For example, if one dealership is using Network ID (A), the dealership across the street would required Network ID (B) to avoid RF interference between the two systems.
Changing Dipswitch Settings Changing Dipswitch Settings Network ID and Transceiver ID dipswitch settings are made on the PC board. To access the board, the transceiver cover must be removed. is the Network ID and the second letter is the Transceiver ID (i.e., AA). Transceivers are often mounted above the work environment. With the labels applied to the diagnostic light side of the transceiver box, the technician can more easily understand the Matrix ID configuration. 1. Remove power to the transceiver.
Changing Dipswitch Settings Dipswitch Setting using RS232 Connection All dipswitch settings must be made without power to the Transceivers or the settings will not be properly communicated to the PC software. In FIG. 10 you can see the default (AA) setting. If the system is a one Transceiver application and no other Matrix systems are in the same RF range, this setting will not require changing.
Changing Dipswitch Settings Dipswitch Setting using RS422 Connection Dipswitch setting (4) of the S1 Network ID changes position when using RS422 cable instead of RS232 cable. As stated earlier, the default dipswitch setting is (AA) for a RS232 connection. If RS422 connection is used, this setting will require a change using the settings in FIG. 11. All dipswitch settings must be made without power to the Transceivers or the settings will not be properly communicated to the PC software.
Changing Dipswitch Settings Components Mounting Bracket During system installation, double-faced tape can be used to allow relocation of the Transceivers to optimize RF communication. Once RF communications are confirmed, the Transceiver can be permanently mounted on a desk top, wall, or ceiling. If the component will be placed on a desktop or horizontal flat surface, use the rubber feet that are supplied. The feet are adhered to round indents on the back side of the unit.
Operation Operation Once the Matrix system is installed, you can verify that the Transceiver is functioning correctly by observing each component’s indicator lights. Once verified, no additional service or maintenance is necessary. M L K H J FIG. 13 Transceiver See FIG. 13 Function Description Power - Green light (H) When lit, indicates the unit is receiving AC power. PC IN - Red light (J) Flashing light indicates transmission from the PC to the Transceiver.

Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Problem Transceiver will not communicate to meters and TLMs Transceiver communicates intermittently to some meters and TLMs. 309498H Cause Solution Incorrect COM port selected for transceiver. Ensure correct COM port is selected. Communication (serial) cable is not connected between the transceiver and PC. Verify that communication cable connects transceiver to PC correctly. See page 6. Transceiver is not powered up. Verify transceiver is powered up.
