UNPACKING 
1.   Thoroughly examine the box to verify it 
was not damaged in shipping. If you find 
damage, immediately file a claim with the 
shipper. 
2.   Carefully unpack the MTEK6000 from 
the shipping container. Verify that the 
box contains every item listed on the 
shipping order. 
INITIAL CHECK OUT 
!!! CAUTION !!! 
This unit contains certain electronic 
components that are sensitive to 
electrostatic discharge (ESD); therefore, 
proper precautions should be taken 
during maintenance operations to avoid 
ESD. It is recommended that the 
operator first touch the shell of the MS 
connector (RS-232C port) on the left side 
of the unit to dissipate any accumulated 
static charge. Additional precautions 
may be taken in order to minimize the 
possibility of ESD, including the use of a 
grounding wrist strap (i.e., 3M part 
number 2214). 
3.   Examine the label on the left side of the 
enclosure. It indicates the serial number 
and pressure range for your unit. Verify 
that these parameters match your 
requirements. If they do not, please 
contact your sales representative. 
4.   Open the front door by loosening the 
upper and lower right hand corner screws 
or quick release latches of the enclosure 
and swinging the door out. See Fig. 1-1. 
5.   If the unit is battery powered, verify that 
jumpers JP 19, 20 and 24 are in the A to B 
position. Load the battery pack with fresh 
batteries and connect it to the corrector at 
position J6. Repeat with the second battery 
pack connecting it at position J7 (see Fig. 
2-1). Go to step 7. 
6.  If the unit is powered via an external 
power source (UPS or SPS option), make 
sure that jumpers JP 19, 20 and 24 are in 
the B to C position and connect the DC 
power input to the DC input screw 
terminals 6 (V+) and 5 (GND) prior to 
power up. Refer to Fig. 2-1 for locating 
the connection points 
 WARNING 
The operating voltage range from an external 
power source is 7-18 VDC. Do NOT exceed 
recommended input voltage of 18 VDC. 
7.  When you first apply power, the display 
will show the first two capital letters of the 
first label, followed by the value and then 
the units. For example, the label 
Corrected Volume MCF with a value of 
00000000 would be displayed as CV 
00000000 MCF.
