4. Setup and Installation

The Mopeka Pro Check Universal Sensor is designed for quick and easy installation. It attaches to the underside of your tank using a mounting collar, ensuring a secure fit even in challenging environments.

1. Prepare the Tank Surface: Ensure the bottom surface of your tank where the sensor will be mounted is clean and free of debris.
2. Apply Ultrasonic Grease: Apply a small amount of the provided ultrasonic grease to the center of the sensor's contact surface. This grease is crucial for optimal signal transmission.
3. Attach the Mounting Collar: Secure the mounting collar to the underside of your tank. For non-magnetized surfaces, the collar provides a stable base.
4. Position the Sensor: Place the sensor firmly into the mounting collar, ensuring it makes good contact with the tank surface. The sensor should be flat against the tank bottom for accurate readings.
5. Download the App: Download the free Mopeka Co-Pilot app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
6. Pair the Sensor: Open the app and follow the on-screen instructions to pair your sensor via Bluetooth.
7. Configure Tank Settings: Within the app, configure the tank type, size, and commodity (e.g., water, propane) for accurate level calculations.

5. Operation

Once installed and paired, the Mopeka Pro Check Universal Sensor provides real-time tank level data directly to your smartphone via the Mopeka Co-Pilot app.

1. Monitoring Levels: Open the Mopeka Co-Pilot app. The app will display the current level of your tank(s) in percentage, along with other relevant information like temperature and signal quality.
2. Customizing Settings: Within the app's settings, you can rename your device, select your tank region, specify tank size (e.g., 120 gal, Vertical), and choose the commodity being monitored.
3. Adjusting Update Rate: The sensor's update rate can be configured in the app to balance real-time data with battery life. A faster update rate provides more frequent readings but consumes more battery.
4. Setting Alarms: Utilize the alarm threshold feature to receive notifications when your tank level drops below a certain percentage, ensuring you are always aware of critical levels.

6. Maintenance

The Mopeka Pro Check Universal Sensor requires minimal maintenance. The battery is designed for long life and is replaceable when needed. Periodically check the sensor's contact with the tank and reapply ultrasonic grease if necessary to ensure optimal performance.

To replace the battery, carefully open the sensor unit and insert a new battery of the specified type. Refer to the product packaging or the Mopeka Co-Pilot app for specific battery requirements.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Mopeka Pro Check Universal Sensor, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Reading or Inaccurate Readings:
  • Ensure the sensor is firmly attached to the tank bottom and is flat. Use the in-app leveling tool under "Sensor Position" to verify correct horizontal placement.
  • Verify that ultrasonic grease has been applied correctly and is sufficient. Reapply if it appears dry or insufficient.
  • Check the battery level in the app. Replace the battery if it is low.
  • Ensure the tank surface is clean and free of obstructions where the sensor is mounted.
• Bluetooth Connection Issues:
  • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smart device.
  • Move closer to the sensor to improve signal strength.
  • Restart the Mopeka Co-Pilot app.
  • If the issue persists, try restarting your smart device.
• App Not Updating:
  • Check your sensor's update rate settings in the app. A longer update interval means less frequent readings.
  • Ensure your app is updated to the latest version.
