1. INSTALLATION OF POWER SUPPLY AND RELAY
IMPORTANT: Only RM5 power supplies should be used with RM510C units. DO NOT connect the RM5 power supply directly to AC power mains.
- Before turning off the rectifier, use a digital voltmeter to identify a 10-30 V
AC power source across the reciter’s secondary taps (separate from the
taps bridged by the bus bar to deliver rectifier output voltage). - Connect the input cables from the RM5 power supply to the 10-30 V AC
power source. Secure connections with the provided nuts. - The RM5 power supply can be secured to a ferrous metal surface using the
integrated magnetic mounts, or to any other surface using the included.
screws.
2. INSTALLATION OF REL2510 Relay
IMPORTANT: The REL2510 Relay is rated for 70 Volts RMS Maximum. For
installations requiring higher voltage, an alternate relay should be used.
- Connect the input cables from the REL2510 relay to the 10-30 V AC
power source identified in step 1a and secure connections with the
provided nuts. - Replace the bus bar on the rectifier's secondary taps with the
REL2510 relay’s output cables. Secure the connections with the
provided nuts. The bus bar SHOULD NOT be reinstalled. - The REL2510 relay should be secured to a ferrous metal surface using the integrated magnetic mounts, or to a non-ferrous metal surface using the included screws. DO NOT use adhesives or any other materials between the bottom of the REL2510 relay and the metal surface it contacts.
3. INSTALLATION OF MODULE
IMPORTANT: The RM5 I/O 4 module must be installed inside the rectifier
cabinet or an alternative enclosure.
- The RM5 I/O 4 module can be secured to a ferrous metal surface using the magnetic mounts, or to any other surface using the included screws.
- Connect wires to the included terminal blocks as per the installation diagram on page 3. On the Bullhorn website, channels 1 and 2 are preconfigured to read rectifier amps and volts, respectively.
- See the RM5 I/O 4 module label for maximum channel input ratings.
Ensure all system connections make solid contact and are protected from moisture and dirt to prevent shorting or corrosion.
4. INSTALLATION OF RM5 Series Dome
IMPORTANT: The RM5 Series dome must be mounted outside of the
rectifier cabinet with a clear view to the sky.
- Mount the RM5 Series dome in the desired location using the
included screws. Use the provided mounting bracket if necessary. - The RM5 Series dome should be mounted facing straight up with no
obstructions between it and the sky. Surrounding structures may
adversely impact the quality of cellular or satellite signal reception. - Feed the included M8 cable through a 1/2 inch hole drilled through the bottom of the rectifier cabinet and secure it with the included grommet. To avoid damaging the M8 cable, hand tighten connections at the RM5 Series dome and RM5 I/O 4 module.
- Confirm the green Dome Status LED is lit on the RM5 I/O 4 module.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the M8 cable, hand tighten connections at the RM510C dome and RM5 I/O4 module.
Testing & Validation of Unit
1. Activate Bluetooth and Connect to the Unit
IMPORTANT: To complete testing and validation, you must install the Bullhorn
Tools Mobile App on your Bluetooth enabled mobile device.
- Activate Bluetooth on the RM5 I/O 4 Module by swiping a magnet across the access point (marked with a Bluetooth logo on the label). A blue flashing LED on the RM5 I/O 4 Module indicates that unit is ready to pair with a Bluetooth enabled mobile device.
- Launch the Bullhorn Tools Mobile App on your Bluetooth enabled mobile device. Nearby RM5 Series units in pairing mode will appear on the screen. If your RM5 Series unit does not appear, swipe down to refresh the screen.
- Tap the name of the unit you want to connect with. Tap OK in the confirmation dialog box.
2. Send a Test Message
IMPORTANT: Wait for the Unit Info screen to display valid RSSI, Lat, and Lon
values before attempting to send a test message.
- Tap the menu icon in the upper left corner of the screen and select Test Message.
- Enable Auto Refresh on the Test Message Status screen and tap the
Send Test Message button. Depending on factors including RSSI,
network traffic, and/or satellite coverage, it may take several minutes for
a test message transmission to complete. - The test message transmission has completed successfully when the Test Message Status screen shows a Transmission Successful notification.
3. Validate Interruption
IMPORTANT: Follow these steps if you have installed a relay and are using the
RM5 Series unit to interrupt your rectifier.
- Tap the menu icon in the upper left corner of the screen and select Interruption.
- Configure the Interruption screen settings as follows:
- Interruption Mode - set to Interruption On
- Output Mode - set to match your relay (Normally Closed for the REL2510 relay)
- On/Off Times - set On Time to 3s, set Off Time to 1s
- Cycle Begins With - set to On
- Tap the Update button. Using a digital voltmeter, read the rectifiers current output to verify that interruption is occurring.
- Set Interruption Mode to Interruption Off and tap the Update button before exiting the Bullhorn Tools Mobile App.
