1. Open the Chatter unit to gain accesss to the circuit board and the SIM
card holder as described in section 6. Gain Access to SIM Card and
Battery on page 21.
2. Open the SIM card holder by applying light pressure on the upper part (the
lid) and at the same time dragging it towards the edge of the circuit board
(here: to the right as indicated by the arrow):
Figure 17. SIM Card Holder - Empty and Locked
The lid opens to an angle of approx. 45 degrees and allows easy access
for SIM card insertion:
Figure 18. SIM Card Holder - Empty and Open
Ensure the SIM card is cleansed from eventual fingerprints, or any dirt or
grease, as even the smallest amounts can influence the functionality of the
SIM card.
Note: Corrosion and verdigris can occure, due to the environment where
Chatter is installed, this can cause fall-out of communication. in case
of this, try and clean the contacts and card, then re-inster the card and
re-try communication.

3. Carefully insert the SIM card into the grooves that hold the card, and finally
push it to the end stop.
IMPORTANT: The SIM card must align with the grooves all the way
down. Likewise the SIM card’s right, cut-off corner must point upwards and to the left (see arrow):
Figure 19. SIM Card Correctly Inserted into the Grooves
4. Secure the SIM card in the holder by applying light pressure on the upper
part (the lid) and at the same time dragging it towards the middle of the
circuit board (here: to the left as indicated by the arrow).

Appendix B. Calculation of Battery Lifetime
The battery in the MJK Chatter unit is of the lithium-trionyl-ion-trotyl type
which is characterized by a high energy density, a low self-discharge, and
a long lifetime. The energy density is 17 Ah nominal and guarantied 15 Ah
(15.000 mAh). Depending on the use of the Chatter unit you can estimate the
battery lifetime.
The Chatter will, depending on the setup, execute one control call every 25th.
hour (if a shorter interval has not been selected). This ensures that you can
always make changes to the setup efter 25 hours. MJK recommends that
you perform a call every 24 hours (once a day) or more frequent.
The lifetime calculation is simple for usages with a fixed log interval, whereas
usages with event log require a time estimation for the event logs.
Calculation Template
Chatter basic consumption per day (fixed) = 1.0
No. of logs per day @sensor consump.=2mA ? x 0.1 = No. of logs per day @sensor consump. =4mA ? x 0.2 = No. of event logs per day @sensor consump.=2mA ? x 0.1 = No. of event logs per day @sensor consump. =4mA ? x 0.2 = No. of calls per day ? x 3 = No. of alarm calls per day ? x 3 = Consumption per day (total): -

Appendix C. Calculation of WLD- and Ref. Datum
The following examples illustrate how you can calculate the water level datum
(WLD) in relation to the cable length and the reference datum of a bore.
Example: A bore has the following characteristics:
• Reference datum: 34.76 m (the level at which the Chatter
base rests on the pipe/bore head)
• Cable length: 25.0 m
• Sensor depth: 24.9 m (cable length - 10 cm)
• Measurement from DB: 7.65 m
Connector=10cm

Data Logger
The water level datum (WLD) in this example: 34.76 - 24.9 + 7.65 => 17.51 m
The following figures/numbers for the bore are required as entries to the data
base to achieve a valid calculation of the water level datum.
Sensor depth from top of bore
1. Sensor depth from the top of the bore = total cable length – 10cm.
2. “Total cable length” is printed on a label near the cable connector
(example: cable length = 11.86 m).
3. To get the sensor depth in relation to the top of the bore, you must subtract 10 cm due to the cable connector length (11.86 - 0.1 = 11.76 m).
4. This is also the sensor depth that you use in calculations and write into the
Chatter database (written to the server from the Chatter Link ”Modbus”
tab in the field ”Sensor depth”).
