Run the program PST. Select option C in the Utilities menu.
Measure and note the water level in each well using a chalked tape,
beeper, etc.
In each well to be monitored:
- Measure the length of the pressure transducer cable to be
installed down the well.
- Install the pressure transducer in the well. Suggested method of
mounting in Figure 1-3, Section 1.
- The transducer should be placed below the maximum draw down,
but should not exceed the pressure range of the transducer.

11.5 ft
10 psi 23 ft
15 psi 35 ft
20 psi 46 ft
30 psi 70 ft
- The caps on the external connectors on the PST are stamped
with a well number. Attach each transducer to the appropriate
external connector, starting with #1.
Set the switches to match the test configuration you have selected (see
Figure 1-6, Section 1).
The *4 table can be thought of as a look up table containing specific infor-
mation for the test, e.g. site I.D. number (to be chosen by the user), the
number of wells, sensor multiplier(s) and offset(s), etc.
If you are using a computer, escape from the program PST menu to the
DOS prompt before using the keyboard display.
