STEP 1: Attaching The Sensor To Your Tank’s Dial
If your Remote-Ready Dial has a black dust cap,
you will first need to remove it by simultaneously pulling up on the tab while sliding the dust cap
out of the dial.
If applicable, route the cable through the hole in the tank’s collar or lid.
Slide the sensor into the dial slot until you feel it click.

STEP 2: Turn Your Monitor On And Prompt A Reading
Hold the activation magnet (attached to the cable) to the activation pad (denoted by the magnet icon) on the monitor for 3 seconds, then remove when the 3 LEDs blink aqua blue. This will turn the monitor on and send a reading.
The LEDs will flash in succession as the monitor attempts to send a reading. When all 3 LEDs are solid aqua blue, a reading was sent successfully.
NOTE: It may take up to five minutes to
establish cellular connection.
Please refer to the “Troubleshooting” section of this guide if your monitor shows any red LEDs.
Successful reading confirmation
shown by 3 solid aqua blue LEDs.
Hold the magnet to the
activation pad.

FOR BELOW GROUND TANKS
It is best to securely attach the monitor
to the top of the lid. If the lid is not metal, use the included self-tapping screws to
attach the mounting washers to the
non-metal lid to provide a place for magnet mounting.
STEP 3: Mount The Monitor
NOTE: Do not place the tank monitor under a steel lid or inside the collar since this
can prevent the monitor from connecting to the cellular network.
The underside of the monitor has two protruding magnetic feet which can be used to mount the monitor on either the tank or the lid.
FOR ABOVE GROUND TANKS
On horizontal tanks, mount the monitor on top of the tank.
On vertical tanks, mount the monitor with the cable pointing downwards.

STEP 4: Configure The Device In The Tank Utility Portal
Your monitor is already associated with your Tank Utility account. To edit the details of the monitor, go to http://portal.tankutility.com and login with your credentials.
Your monitor will appear in the portal when a reading is sent. You can identify the monitor with the 8 digit ID number on the back of your device.

Troubleshooting Setup
When the monitor is prompted to send a reading each LED will blink in succession. Each LED will turn aqua blue when the corresponding step is completed. If a problem is encountered, the LED will turn red.

activation magnet over the activation pad for approximately 15 seconds until
all 3 LEDs are red. Remove the activation magnet while all 3 LEDs are red.
