3.4  Performing a Field Operational Check

Follow these steps prior to leaving the installed system:

3.4.1 Verifying Battery is Charged/Charging

AC Power Charging

You will know the battery is fully charged when the LED on the PSA040

power  charger  is  green.  An  orange  LED  indicates  the  battery  is

charging.

Solar Charging

You  will  know  the  battery  is  fully  charged  when  the  PSA038  Solar

Charger is green. A blinking LED indicates charging. See A.4.3 "PSA038

Genasun Solar Charger" on page A-8.

3.4.2 Checking Cellular Service

Connect  to  the  831C  while  in  the  field  to  determine  if  the  service  is

working properly. 

Connecting to the 831C Remotely

To  connect  to  the  831C  via  a  mobile  device  (with  cellular  service),

follow these steps:

TRY THIS 

Check the service 

lights, see A.4.2 "COM-RV50X-

045NA/EU:APAC Cellular 

Gateway" on page A-6.

Step 1

Open a web browser (Chrome is recommended)

Step 2

In the URL, type the IP address provided to you from your

cellular provider, then /SoundAdvisor. Press enter.

• Ex: 126.120.130.65/SoundAdvisor

Step 3

If  you  have  cellular  service  the  browser  will  show  the

current state of the meter, the same screen as the meter.

You can operate the 831C from this view.
