Chapter 2: Site Survey and Connectivity Test By powering the RTU and testing connectivity before mounting the hardware, you can optimize the signal strength for years of trouble free communications. The test only takes a few minutes since the included battery can provide temporary power.

1. Cut the conduit and wiring holes. Drill Nema 4 mounted on strut rails and pull the conduit holes in the control cabinet and Mission RTU (NEMA 4 or NEMA 1). Flatpaks have 2 large holes in the back plate to drill through the cabinet inner door and provide wire access.

Finally, avoid running the Mission analog and digital cable in the same conduit with 120 VAC cables, especially high current cable. Make sure to dress the Mission signal cables so they do not run parallel to AC or high current cabling.

(If ordered and using a Wet Well Module, follow its runtime connection instructions). 4. Ground the RTU. Use 8-10 gauge green wire installed to the Mission back plate screw of the RTU or 1 of the 4 screws holding the main board on to the back plate (refer to Figure 2).

Chapter 4: Antenna Installation Overview The antenna should be mounted outdoors and as high up as possible, but able to reach the Mission RTU radio connection with no abrupt routing of the coax. Make sure the antenna is not obstructed by buildings, metal or trees.
Page 13
DO NOT mount the antenna horizontally (sideways) or bend the antenna whip. DO NOT cut, lengthen, or shorten the coaxial cable. Mission can supply antenna extension cables and connectors up to 50 feet. For lengths above this limit, another RTU mounting location should be made.
Chapter 5: RTU Startup 1. Power the Mission RTU with the 12 VDC battery only. Do not power the station yet. Black lead first, then red (12 VDC). Watch the LEDs to make sure it powers up as previously described. You should then see the vertical status...

Check to ensure the Mission RTU is still operating. If somehow a wiring mistake has been made and 120 VAC is being fed to the Mission RTU main board, it will be evident. If there appears to be a mistake, immediately remove power before it permanently damages the Mission RTU unit.
1. Test AC power. Check the yellow “TRB” LED. It should not be illuminated. If it is, the Mission RTU is not wired properly for 12 VAC. If the yellow LED is blinking then one of the alarm inputs (4 – 8) does not sense the 1000 Ohm end-of-line resistor.

Pull the high-level float up and put into alarm condition. Ensure that the Mission RTU input 4 LED turns on. If not, check the wiring (wet well module if used). Also check the high level float itself. Do not leave the installation until this alarm function is working.
Chapter 7: Site Commissioning Mission does not consider an installation complete until it has been fully tested by the end user. It is imperative that ALL alarm points are tested and that alarm notifications are accurately received and acknowledged by the customer or end user. All alarm recipient phone numbers, pager numbers, fax numbers and e-mail addresses must also be tested.
Check connections for tightness. *Cycle power means removing the AC power and unplugging the battery to the Mission RTU for 15 seconds and then powering back up. Contact Mission Technical Support at (877) 993-1911 if any problems exist with your RTU or web portal.
Digital Inputs There are 8 dry contact inputs on M110 and M800 series that can be used for sensing alarms, pump status, as well as accumulating pump runtimes and pump starts. Both models can be equipped for an additional 8 digital inputs with the optional Digital Expansion Board to give you a total of 16 digital inputs.
Page 21
2 pulse inputs can be used to report data such as flow, water meter or rainfall totals. If no rainfall data is monitored at the site, Mission’s web site presents data from the closest National Weather Service reporting station. Pulse inputs are available with either the Pulse Option Board or the Analog Option Board.
