Supplies for Installation

Included with the Wi-LD

Wi-LD transmitter

15 foot (4.75m) leader cable

End-of-line terminator (EOL)

Mount the Transmitter

Wireless transmitters should be mounted off the floor. While the electronics are

coated to provide a moisture barrier against condensation, the transmitter is not

waterproof and submersion in water is not

recommended.

The transmitter can be mounted with

adhesive tape, adhesive-backed velcro or

adhesive-backed magnetic tape, which

works well if the transmitter will be mounted

on a metallic surface and will not disturb

the electronics. You’ll need access to the

information on the transmitter’s label - the

white sticker on the back of the unit. When

you apply your tape, velcro, or magnet, be

careful not to cover the label. Make sure the side of the transmitter with the

white RLE product label faces away from any metal surfaces.

Use tape that is 0.5 inch (1.27cm) wide. When placed correctly, the tape allows

the transmitter’s back label to remain visible. The serial number on this label is

unique to each transmitter, and you will need to refer to this number throughout

the life span of the transmitter. If tape is placed over the label, the paper label

will tear and the serial number will be unreadable.

Battery

Each transmitter comes equipped with a

3.6V lithium battery, which can be replaced

as needed. The transmitter is turned off

when the product is shipped. Any time the

transmitter is shipped, it should either be

returned to this inactive state or placed in

a shielded container to prevent interference

that might cause shipping problems.

To activate the transmitter, remove the pull

tab to engage the battery. Turn off the

transmitter by re-inserting the pull tab or

removing the battery.

If you have problems operating or communicating with your wireless transmitter,

consult the Troubleshooting section of the Wi-MGR User Guide.

Installation Mode Switch

The transmitter has an installation mode switch - a

push button located in the center of the enclosure

lid. When pressed, the transmitter immediately

sends a data packet with a special mark introduced

into its ID field. This indicates which transmitter is

in service or being installed. The data is processed

by the FDS-Wi’s automatic discovery feature. For

more information regarding the FDS-Wi and wireless

sensor integration, refer to the FDS-Wi User Guide.

Wi-LD Configurations

A Wi-LD configuration couples the wireless transmitter with one of the following

three options:

1. up to 50 feet (15.24m) of conductive fluid sensing cable

2. up to 35 feet (10.67m) of chemical sensing cable

3. one SD-Z spot detector

4. one SD-Z1 spot detector

If you are using either sensing cable or an SD-Z spot detector, you may use as

much leader cable as you need to reach the area you plan to monitor.
