Installation
To successfully install the Captis device you must perform the following steps:
1. Mount the device
2. Terminate the sensor
3. Test the sensor
4. Test connectivity
1.1 Mount the Device
The Captis device may be mounted in a range of positions using either:
•Screw mounting via the top and bottom tabs to a flat surface; or,
•Fasting to a pole/post with a hose clamp (<15mm thick) or cable ties
Upon successfully mounting the device, care must be taken to ensure that there is no undue stress on
the cable between the sensor and the device. If the sensor cable does become strained in the final
location, please remove the device, and relocate closer to the sensor.
1.2 Terminate the Sensor
Your Captis Pulse Lite is provided with a four-pin Amphenol plug that can be connected to one or two
sensors and/or measurement devices. For additional information, refer to the Captis Termination
guide.
Use a crimping tool (not included) to ensure that the pins are securely fastened to the end of the
sensor cable and insert into the appropriate receptacles of the Amphenol plug.
A light tug on the cables will ensure that the pins are inserted and crimped correctly.
Use the table below to identify the connections between the Captis Pulse Lite and the sensor via the
provided Amphenol plug.
Note: If the Captis Pulse Lite is to be installed underground or inside a metal cabinet, an
external LTE antenna must be used. Ensure that your Captis device supports external
antenna connection. The antenna lead must be routed to an open area where cell signal is
less obstructed.

Best Practice Considerations:
•Utilise the appropriate cable gland provided when terminating the sensor to preserve IP
rating.
oSmall: Red –Cable OD 5.0 –6.0mm.
oMedium: Yellow –Cable OD 6.0 –8.0mm.
oLarge: Blue –Cable OD 8.0 –10.0mm.
•Do not remove pins from the Amphenol plug once terminated. Please contact Kallipr for
further support
•Ensure there is no debris between the plug and the Captis Pulse Lite prior to connecting.
1.3 Test the Sensor
When the sensor has been terminated into the provided Amphenol plug, it is recommended that the
sensor itself is tested prior to connection with the Captis device. This can be achieved by:
1. Connecting the sensor to the desired output
2. Use a multimeter (not included) on the Amphenol plug to prove the sensor output. Note that
some sensors may require power from the Captis and can only be tested once completely
connected.
Once this step is complete, the plug may be fastened to the Captis Pulse Lite.
1.4 Test Connectivity
Use the magnet provided to ‘wake’ the Captis Pulse Lite by holding it over the symbol.
The status light should flash, followed by a solid cellular light.
The device should then connect to the platform and upload data.
Prove that the sensor output is accurately recorded and uploaded by the Captis Pulse Lite.
Ensure that the device is tested in its final install location to confirm signal strength is greater than -
96dB RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power).
If the device does not connect to your platform, please refer to the Captis Device Troubleshooting
guide.
