Serial # example (12ABC123) on side of monitor. 3. While Provisioning you will enter the question you want to address with the alarm notification, i.e. Is the power on? or Is the equipment functioning? 4. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver, remove the clear case top of Remote D Tech controller, connect the provided battery, and reattach the top. Tighten it securely with the screwdriver to ensure a watertight seal but avoid over tightening to prevent cracking. 5. Test cellular transmission by quickly rubbing a metal object against the two small screws on the top left side of the case until red AND green LED lights begin flashing. If the transmission is successful, you will be notified via text or email within 2 minutes. If you do not receive a notification after 2 minutes, move the monitor to a higher area with greater cellular strength and repeat Step 4.
Test the Remote D Tech
The Remote D Tech monitors direct and indirect power and open or closed relays. If the alarm relay closes for approximately 7 seconds, or if power cuts out for at least 7 seconds, Remote D Tech will report the alarms via its internal cellular radio.

The monitor will transmit a report to the SensorTech data center indicating the alarm. The type of notification you receive via text, email, or both, will depend on how the monitor has been provisioned.
