The MultiRanger 100 and 200
The MultiRanger is available in two models, MultiRanger 100 and MultiRanger 200, and is
designed for a variety of applications:
• water and wastewater
• storage tanks, for measuring liquids, slurries, and solids
• hoppers, ore bunkers, flotation cells
MultiRanger 100
The MultiRanger 100 is a single or dual-point level, one, three, or six relay measurement
device. It is equipped with digital communications and offers the latest in echo
processing technology and diagnostic features.
MultiRanger 200
The MultiRanger 200 is a single or dual-point, three or six relay device that offers both
level and volume measurement. It has Open Channel Monitoring capabilities, a larger
number of advanced pump control algorithms, and is equipped with digital
communications. It offers the latest in echo processing technology and diagnostic
features.
The Manual
Notes:
• This product is intended for use in industrial areas. Operation of this equipment
in a residential area may cause interference to several frequency based
communications.
• Please follow the installation and operating procedures for a quick, trouble-free
installation and to ensure the maximum accuracy and reliability of your
MultiRanger.
The manual provides instruction for both MultiRanger 100 and MultiRanger 200 models.

Cable routed through a conduit:
1. Remove the four mounting screws holding the motherboard to the enclosure.
2. Be careful not to damage the electronics with static electricity. Remove the
motherboard from the enclosure by pulling the board straight out.
3. Drill the required cable entry holes. Make sure conduit holes do not interfere with
the lower areas on the terminal block, circuit board, or SmartLinx card.
4. Attach the conduit to the enclosure using only approved suitable size hubs for
watertight application.
5. Reinstall the motherboard with the mounting screws.

Cable exposed and entering through the cable glands:
1. Unscrew the glands and attach them loosely to the enclosure.
2. Thread the cables through the glands. Ensure the power cable is kept separated
from the signal cables and then wire the cables to the terminal blocks.
3. Tighten the glands to form a good seal.

Cutout Instructions
1. Select a place for the unit and fasten the template onto the panel (use tape or
tacks).
2. Drill the four fastener holes.
3. Make the cutout using the appropriate tools.
4. Mount unit according to the instructions in this manual.

Mounting the Enclosure
Once cutout is complete and mounting holes are drilled, follow these steps:
1. Remove lid from unit by undoing the six lid screws and lifting it off its hinges.
2. Remove the four screws holding the motherboard to the enclosure.
3. Be careful not to damage the electronics with static electricity. Remove the
motherboard from the enclosure by pulling the board straight out.
4. Drill the required cable entry holes. Be sure to compensate for panel door
dimensions and make sure conduit holes do not interfere with the lower areas on
the terminal block, circuit board, or SmartLinx card.
Installation
5. Replace board and fasten the four screws.
6. Place the unit into the panel and insert hexagonal fasteners through bevel slots and
predrilled panel holes.
7. Fasten with wingnuts and hand tighten.

Installing the Battery
The battery (Rayovac BR2032) has a ten-year life expectancy. Please note the life
expectancy may be reduced by ambient temperature. If the unit loses external and
battery power, a capacitor will power the RAM for about ten minutes.
Disconnect power before replacing the battery.
Installation Steps
1. Open the enclosure lid.
2. Slide the battery into the holder. Be sure to
align the + and – terminals correctly.
3. Close and secure enclosure lid.

Installing SmartLinx Card
SmartLinx cards are generally pre-installed. If unit does not have a SmartLinx card, follow
these steps to install one.
1. Align card with the two mounting posts and then press-fit with the female
connector.
2. Use the screws supplied with the card to attach it to the mounting posts.
3. Wire in the SmartLinx card according to SmartLinx Manual.

Wiring
Please note:
• Verify that all system components are installed in accordance with instructions.
• Connect all cable shields to the MultiRanger Shield Terminals. Avoid differential
ground potentials by not connecting cable shields to ground (earth) anywhere.
• Keep exposed conductors on shielded cables as short as possible to reduce noise
on the line caused by stray transmissions and noise pickup.

Relays 3 and 6 can be
wired either normally open
or normally closed, and
will fail in their deenergized states.
Wiring
Temperature Sensor
Accurate temperature readings are critical to accurate level measurements because the
speed of sound changes, depending on air temperature, and all Siemens Milltronics
Echomax and ST-H transducers have an internal temperature sensor.
If the following conditions apply, a separate TS-3 temperature sensor will ensure
optimum accuracy:
• the transducer is exposed to direct sunlight (or other radiant heat source)
• the transducer face and monitored surface temperature differs
• faster response to temperature changes is required
Note
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Use a T-S3 Temperature
Sensor only. Leave
terminals open (unused) if
TS-3 is not deployed.
mA Input [MR 200 only]
For more information, consult the Transducer (P004) and mA Input Parameters (P250,
P251, and P252) in the parameter reference section.
mA Output
For more information, consult the mA output parameters (P200 to P219) in the parameter
reference section.

Level System Synchronization
Note: The MultiRanger 100/200 CANNOT be synchronized with the MultiRanger
Plus or the HydroRanger.
When using multiple ultrasonic level monitors, be sure to run the transducer cables in
separate grounded metal conduits.
When separate conduits are not possible, synchronize the level monitors so that no unit
transmits while another is waiting for echo reception.

Synchronizing with another MultiRanger 100/200, or other Siemens Milltronics instruments (DPL+, SPL, XPL+, LU01, LU02, LU10, LUC500, Hydro+,
EnviroRanger, MiniRanger):
• Mount the level monitors together in one cabinet
• Use a common power (mains) supply and ground (earth) for all units
• Interconnect the SYNC terminals of all level monitors
•Set parameter
• Contact Siemens Milltronics or your local distributor. Go to

Power
Important!
Before applying power to the MultiRanger for the first time, ensure any connected
alarm/control equipment is disabled until satisfactory system operation and
performance is verified.
Notes for AC power connections
• The equipment must be protected by a 15 A fuse, or circuit breaker in the
building installation.
• A circuit breaker or switch in the building installation, marked as the disconnect
switch, must be in close proximity to the equipment and within easy reach of the
operator.
