RLM-GS for Gilbarco MOC G-SITE Systems
Note all warnings at the beginning of installation section.
If the Gilbarco system employs a MOC G-SITE point of sale system,
special procedures must be followed to ensure a successful installation of
the RLM. First of all, it is important to know from the site survey which
type of controller (C2, 486, Pentium, etc.) the G-SITE is using. Secondly,
the revision number of the software running on the G-SITE is very
important to know.
Confirm that the G-SITE will support the EMC tank monitoring option
which is a component of the BIR (Business Inventory Reconciliation)
interface. The software revision number, along with the MOC type,
indicate the ability of the G-SITE to support this function. If it is
determined that the G-SITE does not have the correct revision software
loaded, a software update is required from an authorized Gilbarco
distributer.
If you have determined that the G-SITE is EMC ready, proceed with the
RLM-GS installation. Otherwise, contact dealer for further assistance.
1.Locate the G-SITE controller EMC tank monitor port using the
G-SITE installation manual. Connect the RLM-GS to the Gsite
using the 9000 15 0045 cable and the RJ45 adapters (9000 16
0002 and 9000 16 0003) provided by PIE.
Page 24Version 1.1 / November 98
rlminstl.mnl
Page 34
Progressive International ElectronicsRLM
If the G-SITE is using the C2 style controller, both adapters will
be required. If the G-SITE is a 486-style controller, adapter
9000 16 0002 will not be needed.
Reference the two diagrams at the end of this section.
2.Return to the RLM Installation Section for remaining system
installation procedures.
The RLM G-SITE reports all totals by meter number for each fueling
position. Blender dispensers will report meter 1 to hose 1 and meter 2
to hose 2 position on the RLM. A blended product will report an
increase for both meters.

RLM-T for Tokheim Electronic Dispenser
Note all warnings at the beginning of installation section.
1.Plug the adapter cable (supplied by PIE) for Tokheim dispensers
into the adapter port on the RLM-T.
2.Determine the type of electrical communications used by the
Tokheim system. Match the RLM-T with the Tokheim system by
using the appropriate adapter board selection in the RLM-T.
Reference Diagram: RLM Tokheim Adapter Board later in this
section.
Two types of electrical communications techniques are used by
Tokheim — standard and RS422. The M98 and M94 Power
Centers all use Tokheim standard. The 67 DBox uses standard,
but may be modified in the field to run RS422. The 67B uses
RS422, but may be modified in the field to run standard.
Because of the ability to modify in the field, the model number
on the 67 and 67B may not accurately reflect the
communications method of the DBox settings. Contact the
Tokheim service company responsible for site service to confirm
DBox settings.
3.Locate the round black connectors on the existing console to
DBox cable. Disconnect the existing console/controller cable
from the Tokheim M98/M94 Power Center, the 67 DBox, or the

Testing the RLM Using Tester/WinTester
Shipped with each RLM, PIE provides two software diagnostic tools on
diskette, "Tester" and "WinTester." Tester is a DOS-based utility, while
WinTester is a Windows-based program designed to run on Win3.11,
Win95 and Win98.
Either Tester or WinTester:
Allows the user to retrieve data from the RLM.
Has a reset feature which clears all totals in the RLM and a test
load to determine the RLM's storage ability.
Has the ability to run the comm port on the PC to coordinate the
jumper settings of the RLM and the PC.
Testing the RLM with "Tester" Utility
1.Check to ensure that your computer has the ANSI.SYS driver
loaded on the root directory on C drive. Your CONFIG.SYS file
should have a statement such as device=c:\[path]\ansi.sys . If
not, locate the ANSI.SYS file on your computer and edit your
CONFIG.SYS file to include the device=c:\[path]\ansi.sys
statement. If this driver is not loaded properly, the screen will
not be readable when Tester is loaded.

2.Go to A:\ drive. Insert the Tester diskette and type Tester. This
loads the Tester program.
3.Determine the communication settings in the RLM from the
4.Follow the prompts on the screen, setting Tester's parameters to
match those of the RLM.
5.The screen will fill with eight fueling positions with pump totals
information. If data appears scrambled on the screen, press Eto exit and recheck to make sure ANSI.SYS is loaded. These
totals represent the transactions the RLM has captured since it
was last reset.
Press T to view the next 8 positions, 9 through 16.
Press ? at any time to view a menu of the Tester commands.
To test the RLM serial comm port with Tester, follow 1-5
above and #6 below.
6.RLMs shipped from PIE will have all totals cleared. To test load
an RLM and to ensure the communications link between the
Tester program and the RLM, press L and look at "pump2 hose2"
position on the screen. It should read "1234567890". To reset
the RLM and clear all data, press R. All totals cells will show
zeroes. Check to make sure that the status message at the top of
each pump display reads "OK". See note at end of this section.

3.Using the Setup and Select pulldown menus on the screen, set
WinTester's parameters to match the RLM.
4.The screen will fill with eight fueling positions with pump totals
information. These totals represent the transactions the RLM has
captured since it was last reset.
An on-screen display of stats for each fueling position is a component of
the testing procedure when using either the Tester or WinTester utility.
The status of each fueling position will be indicated as one of the
following:
OK
TOtime out
CS"check sum" error
Status for all fueling positions should read OK before proceeding with
