3.2 Testing the Receiver Strength
After selecting an installation location and powering up the RTM II, it is a good idea to test the device’s
ability to transmit and receive. The device must be connected to power and an antenna attached in order
to carry out this test. You can check the radio strength locally using the Sensus Automation Device
Configurator software. Once the RTM II has been installed and commissioned, you can check the radio
strength remotely using AutomationControl.
