Store sensors in the soaking caps provided, making sure that each container is filled with the original storage solution or clean water. If the storage containers have been misplaced, store sensors individually in small glass or plastic containers with clean water covering sensor tips. Controller Storage The controller unit is subject to damage by electro-static discharge (ESD) when the sensor cables are disconnected. Always reinstall the BNC protective covers prior to storing or transporting the CAT 6000 controller unit. Winterization The sensors should be prepared for storage as outlined above and protected from freezing temperatures. Although the CAT 6000 controller is designed to withstand a broad temperature range, winter storage in a secure location may be desirable. The flow cell and poly tubing must be drained prior to exposure to freezing temperatures. Either purge all water using compressed air or thoroughly drain through the valve ports and tubing connections. Network Communications Cell All CAT controllers set up on Cell networks come already activated for wireless communication. Once the unit has been installed and registered on www.poolcomm.com, the devices will begin to communicate. Local reception and antenna positioning can affect communication capability, if the unit does not communicate, please call 301-838-4001 and ask for technical support. WIFI WIFI Controllers communicate via local WIFI networks. Before these units can begin to communicate, they must be configured to connect to the local WIFI network.
