MT150W™ General Description
MT150W™ is a long-range, synthesized
radio-metering transmitter in the VHF 172174 MHz frequency range..
When the MT150W detects pulse conditions
at one or more of its inputs the pulse is
counted and saved.
When the number of the pulse is equal to the
Trans Scale defined by the GUP10™, it is
then transmitted to the central station
according to the WAT-NET
selected for the system in operation.
MT150W™ has one connector (see Figure
1).
1. J9: The 10-pin programming jack is a
serial port to connect a PC or a FTU (see
Figure 1).
Unit parameters and meters values
are easily programmed using
Gup10™ utility-programming
software. (See the MT150W™
Programming Guide) or by the FTU.

2. Meter Input: The meter input is a two
wires cable. These wires connect to the
meter output.

Preparing for Operation
Before installing the MT150W™ on
site, perform the following
preparations:
1. Setting communication
parameters
2. Self test
Setting Communication
Parameters
•
Connect GUP10 program to the
MT150W™ (see the
MT150W™ programming
guide)
Self-Test
In order to perform a self-test please
see the Field Programmer User
Guide.
Installing the MT150W
There are two mounting methods:
1. Wall mounting
2. On-Pipe mounting
Wall Mounting Installa tion
1. Fasten the mounting bracket on
the wall with four screws (See
figure 2)
2. Slide the MT150W unit on the
mounting bracket until the 4 clips
are locking the unit
3. Define the parameters with the
field programmer (FTU100) see
the FTU User Guide
4. Insert the terminator to J9 (See
figure 1)
5. Put the cover
Figure 2222: Wall Mounting
On-Pipe Mounting Installation
1. Fasten the mounting bracket
on the pipe with two screws
and the “Omega” bracket
(See figure 3)
2. Slide the MT150W unit on
the mounting bracket until
the 4 clips are locking the
unit
3. Define the parameters with
the field programmer
(FTU100) see the FTU User
Guide
4. Insert the terminator to J9
(See figure 1)
5. Put the cover

Restrictions:
1. Do not mount the unit on any kind
of metal surface.
2. Do not mount any input c able next
to the antenna (see figure).
Meter types:
1. There are two main types of meters:
2. Meters that produces a ‘Passive
Pulse’.
3. Meters that produces an ‘Active-
Pulse’ (known also as-‘’Pulse
Generator’).
Technical Specifications:
Wiring:
1. Connect the two polls of the Meter input
cable to the meter using a self-stripping
insulated connector (like 3M-Scotchlock
or equivale nt).
2. Polarity: if a ‘Passive Pulse’ type meter
is connected, there is no polarity so the
wires can be connected in any order, if
an ‘Active Pulse’ type meter is
connected, there is a polarity and the
wires have to be connected in the
following order: Red wire to the
POSITIVE (+) poll and the Black wire
to the NEGATIVE (-) poll,
(see figure 4).
