3. After completing the wiring connections, install a
cable tie to the meter cable just below the exposed
colored lead wires on the cable insulation. Remove
the excess cable tie using a hand-held side-cutter
pliers. The cable tie performs as a cable strain relief
to mitigate the risk of destructive tension on the lead
wires.
4. Tuck the three gel connectors and cable tie inside the module housing, as shown in the placement
illustration and schematic.
5. Install the remote module backplate using the four screws previously removed from the module and a Torx
T-10 screwdriver.
6. Plug the cable into the pulse output of the index.
Important! Verify that the cable tie and gel connectors are inside the module
housing and that the cable extends out of the backplate slot. Torque the
backplate mounting screws 9 to 12 inch-pounds.
7. Mount the module as required for your application.
Wall and pipe mount options are described in
