Tying the Cable and Activiating the MIU
1 Place the MIU in place in the pit location, using the following
suggestions:
• In shallow pit application, you can place the MIU beside
the meter.
• In deep pit applications, use a cable tie to suspend the
MIU from the antenna shaft, as show in
Figure 19.

2 Position the magnet against the left side of the MIU directly in
line with the Neptune logo, as shown, and swipe it bringing it
from the side and around the corner to the top to activate the
MIU. (See
Figure 20.)
3 Remove the “twisty tie” (wire tie) from the coiled ProRead
(ARB VI) encoder cable.
