To partner up to four RMPs with the
RMI-Q without ReniKey
The RMI-Q has four machine start inputs
(P1 - P4) that enable partnering of four radio
probes (see wiring diagram on page 3.2).
The partnering procedure is dependant on the
start method that has been selected. See page
2.9 for start methods.
Partnering with dedicated start (Level mode)
If the RMI-Q is powered with all start inputs
held low, the RMI-Q will complete its start up
procedure and partner the RMP as Probe 1.
When the RMI-Q is powered with a single
machine start input held high, the RMI-Q will
complete its start up procedure and partner the
RMP to the probe number represented by the
selected machine start input.

NOTES:
Activation of machine start input (P4) is not
required when common start is selected.
To aid partnering, an on/off switch can be fitted
between the machine power supply and the
RMI-Q (red wire). This enables the RMI-Q to
be momentarily powered off and then back on,
for each of the probes being partnered, without
having to power off the machine.
