INSTALLATION
POSITIONING YOUR SYSTEM
The TM6400 being a control system, should receive the same
installation considerations as an alarm system. It should be installed
in such a way as to be tamper proof that you choose to install it at the
bar, outside the beer cooler or, in the manager’s office. Cables and
connections should be protected and secured out of reach. The
power source should not be installed where it can easily be
disconnected. Do not connect the TM6400 power source to an
electrical outlet that can be turned off at night.
COMMUNICATION
The TM6400 is equipped with two programmable serial ports and an
Ethernet adapter to connect it to a computer network.
The RS-422 port serial port connector is a RJ11 jack (phone jack).
The RS-232 port connector is a Dsub 9 pin connector (male)

RS-422 connector type RJ11
Using RS-422 and the Auper AP821 RS-422 eight port hub,
you can link several Auper metering systems to the same RS-
232 serial port or USB port of a computer or printer.
RS-232 SPECIFICATIONS
The RS-232 port can be used with one system connected directly to a
serial port of a computer running with the Draft manager software.
Maximum distance RS-232 15.25 metres (50 ft) with straight
cable or 44 metres (147 ft) using UTP Cat 5 cable
RS-232 connector type DB9 male
Maximum Baud Rate RS-232 115kbit/s
ETHERNET ADAPTER
The TM6400 is available with an optional Ethernet adapter you can
use to connect one, or several TM6400, directly to your computer
network to use the Draft Manager Live software. Once connected to a
network port, the adapter can be found and configured by remote
login by our technicians from any PC on the same network. This is
done at the same time as the software installation.
The system is also equipped with a real-time interface. The TM6400
will send the amount served through the Ethernet or serial port two
seconds after the flow meter has stopped recording following a
special communication protocol. To use this feature, you must use the
Draft Manager Live software.

RED LED POWER FAIL INDICATOR
The red LED on the TM6400 will flash to signal that there was a
power failure. To stop the LED from flashing you will need to enter
your administrator code.
CONNECTING THE FLOW METERS
Follow the instruction sheet supplied with the flow meters for complete
step by step instructions on how to install the flow meters. Videos are
also available on the Auper YouTube channel accessible from the
web site. The flow meters will be connected to one or 4 flow meter
collector box. The collector boxes are designed to be mounted in beer
coolers. Since the flow meters are supplied with a 25 ft (7.6 M) cable,
you should try to position each collector box in the beer cooler to
reach as many flow meters as possible. Flow meter cables can be
extended should you need to.
WARNING:
The power to the collector boxes comes from the TM6400 through the
collector cables. Always disconnect the power to the TM6400 when
working on the collector(s) or, when connecting or disconnecting the
collector cables.

8|P a g e
One collector box is able to take
up to 16 flow meters. Up to four
collector boxes can be connected
to one TM6400 for a total of 64
flow meters per system.
You will connect the collector
boxes to the TM6400 using a
regular Cat 5 network cable
terminated with RJ45 connectors.
Cables are available for up to 150
ft (46M). Longer cables can be made on demand and can reach 300 ft
(100 M). This is the same kind of cables used for computer networks.
You can find them in computer stores or have them installed by local
computer network contractors. However, you must not connect the
collector cables to the computer network and each cable should
be tested priot to connecting it to the collector and TM6400
system..

TM6400 Installation & User guide 9|P a g e
There are two channels on the TM6400 each able to take one or 2
collector boxes. Channel 1 on the TM6400 (flow meters No.1 to 32)
will take one or two collector boxes. The second collector boxe (flow
meter 17 to 32) connects to the first collector box using the OUT
connector to the IN connector of the first collector box. The same
goes with channel 2 for flow meters 33 to 64.
The ends of flow meter cables have been stripped at the factory. Twist
the wire and then pull the insulation off the wire. Cut the copper wire
to get ¼ in (6mm) exposed only.
Auper flow meters do not need an external power source. There is no
voltage going to the flow meters so you cannot damage them even if
you touch the wires. There is no positive or ground either. You do not
have to worry about polarities.
