5. Communication with MacR6 N
5.1. Switch on NFC in smartphone/tablet.
5.2. Start ConfIT! Data loggers application, select communication type NFC and place smartphone close to
MacR6 N.
Transmission will be established when both MacR6 N and smartphone NFC antennas have
contact. Make sure, where NFC antenna is placed in smartphone.
6. Device configuration
6.1. If MacR6 N has external sockets, go to section 7. Inputs configuration
6.2. After finished readout, smartphone can be removed from MacR6 N.
6.3. Check if device’s clock is proper.
If not, tap right menu or slide the screen with finger from right to left,
and choose “Set device time”
6.4. In first screen (“Basic parameters” section) set values related to the watermeter –counter and
pulse factor.
If device shows notification, that it is in standby (offline)
mode, it can be turned on via TURN ON THE DEVICE
button, or it will be done automatically after
programming watermeter counter.
6.5. Location of device (GPS coordinates) can be set from right menu.
It will start-up GPS module in smartphone, search GPS coordinates and
automatically set in the device
6.6. Tap left menu or slide the screen with finger from left
to right, to bring up a Section Menu.
6.7. Enter “Mobile communication” section and set “SIM card PIN code”and “APN of SIM card”.
6.8. Program the logger by pressing „Save to device” and place
smartphone/tablet close to MacR6 N.
6.9. Successful parameters programming will end up with a prompt
of successful end.
If MacR6 N is mounted directly on watermeter, after
watermeter counter programming, the device enters into
watermeter recognition mode, what is signalized by
information in the main window.
During water flow the device shall detect the watermeter after counting a few pulses.
Watermeter recognition shall be signalized with a prompt as below.
If watermeter detection takes too long, disregarding the water flow, retry configuration
(section 5. Communication with MacR6 N).

potential sensors (e.g. opened manhole sensor)
If selected option allows additional settings, an icon shall appear above it.
Options for “Watermeter” allows to choose type of connection with
watermeter pulse transmitter.
Options for “Pressure sensor”
allows to choose type (range) of
connected pressure sensor:
0-10bar or 0-26bar
Options for “Digital Inputs” allows to set which
inputs (DI1, DI2) are used, and what is their
polarity:
•NC –Normally Closed
•NO –Normally Opened
