FCC ID: JHIGNET
IC: 4840AGNET
Industry Canada Statement
The term “IC” before the certification/registration number only signifies that the Industry
Canada technical specifications were met.
✓
• Do not over tighten tank level monitor into
tank bung! Over tightening can cause perma-
nent damage and result in inaccurate readings.
• Do not use thread sealant or adhesive! Many
of these products are chemically incompatible
with the PC/ABS plastic.

Warnings
Warnings
The following warnings include general safety information for this equipment. More specific warnings are included in
the text where appropriate.
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.
• Eliminate all ignition sources, such as cigarettes and portable electric lamps.
• Keep work area free of debris, including rags and spilled or open containers of solvent and gasoline.
• Do not plug or unplug power cords or turn lights on or off when flammable fumes are present.
• Ground equipment.
• Use only grounded hoses.
• If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation immediately. Do not use equipment
until you identify and correct the problem.
BATTERY SAFETY
The battery may leak, explode, cause burns, or cause an explosion if mishandled:
• You must use the battery type specified for use with the equipment.
• Sparking can occur when changing batteries. Only replace the battery in a non-hazardous location,
away from flammable fluids or fumes.
• Handle and dispose of battery properly - do not short circuit, charge, force over discharge, disassemble, crush, penetrate, incinerate, or heat the battery to a temperature exceeding 185° F (85° C).
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Misuse can cause death or serious injury.
• Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or temperature rating of the lowest rated system
component. See Technical Data in all equipment manuals.
• Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with equipment wetted parts. See Technical Data in all
equipment manuals. Read fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.
• Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
• Do not alter or modify equipment.
• For professional use only.
• Use equipment only for its intended purpose. Call your Graco distributor for information.
• Route hoses and cables away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.
• Do not use hoses to pull equipment.
• Comply with all applicable safety regulations.

Installation
WARNING
Installing and servicing this equipment requires
access to parts which may cause fire, explosion, and
serious injury if work is not performed properly. Do not
install or service this equipment unless you are trained
and qualified. Read warnings, page 3.
The location of the dipswitches will change to the same
settings of the Transceiver that it must communicate
with. The factory default setting for all Tank Level Monitors is (AA) using a RS232 connection. The first A refers
to the Network ID and the second A refers to the Transceiver ID. If multiple Transceivers are used or if RS422
connection is used, the factory default settings will
require changing.
Determining what settings to use
CAUTION
• Do not over tighten tank level monitor into tank
bung! Over tightening can cause permanent dam-
age and result in inaccurate readings.
• Do not use thread sealant or adhesive! Many of
these products are chemically incompatible with the
PC/ABS plastic.
TLM Dipswitch Settings
Tank Level Monitors (TLM) and Transceivers have two, 4
- position dipswitches labeled S1 and S2.
• 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 require Network ID (B) to avoid RF interference between the two systems.
• Transceiver ID (S2): This is the RF identifica-
tion setting assigned to a Matrix Transceiver(s).
Matrix system components are then assigned to
the Transceiver(s) ID's as desired for RF communication. For example, if a system required
two Transceivers, some components would be
assigned to one Transceiver and other components would be assigned to the second Transceiver using the Transceiver ID dipswitch.
There are (8) Network ID's and (8) Transceiver ID's possible by changing the position of the dipswitches. The
eight positions are identified as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and
H.
Tank Level Monitor dipswitches must be set to match
those of the transceiver the TLM will be communicating
with.
1. Remove the protective plastic cover (5) over the
Tank Level Monitor display that was used for shipping and discard. See F
2. Remove the four screws (3) holding the tank monitor
cover in place.
WARNING
Read and follow
3. Remove the cover.
4. Remove the insulating foam (4) to access the circuit
board.
5. Set the S1 and S2 settings to match those of the
transceiver that this TLM will communicate with.
Wait at least 30 seconds after the dipswitch settings
are made before installing the batteries. If you do
not wait the 30 seconds, the software will not recognize the new settings.
6. Install the (2) alkaline 9-volt batteries (1) provided.
Be sure that the batteries fully engage the mounting
clips by pushing on the bottom of the batteries with
your thumbs.
On initial power up of the TLM, it will take about 30
seconds for the monitor to display information after
pressing the blue display button. This time will
decrease thereafter to a few seconds

7. Replace the insulating foam (4) and reconnect the
batteries.
Make sure the o-ring (2) is not damaged and is in
the correct location.
Make sure the RF antenna wire (black formed wire
near the center of the top PC board) is not flattened against the PC board. This can result in poor
RF communication.
8. Replace cover and secure it with the four screws (3).

Make sure the cover screws are tightened securely
(18-22 in-lb) to avoid water leakage into the TLM
electronics. If a torque wrench is not used, verify
there are no gaps under the screw heads and no
gaps under the cover flange. This will ensure
proper compression of the o-ring for a water-tight
seal.
All dipswitches in down
or off position.
