MWTC-REC6/UWTC-REC6
Section 1 – General Description
Omega’s New, patent pending, wireless transceiver module converts a standard
hard wired instrument into a wireless receiver. This allows the host instrument
to receive wireless sensor readings.
Model MWTC-REC6 can receive wireless data from Omega’s MWTC Series of
wireless thermocouple connectors.
Model UWTC-REC6 can receive wireless data from Omega’s UW Series of
wireless thermocouple connectors, RTD connectors, Nema Transmitters and
industrial probe assemblies.
This manual outlines how to setup and operate the Wireless Transceiver Module
Section 2 – FCC/CE Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
1.) This device may not cause harmful interference.
2.) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
It is the policy of OMEGA®to comply with all worldwide safety and EMI/EMC
regulations that apply. OMEGA is constantly pursuing certification of its
products to the European New Approach Directives. OMEGA will add the CE
mark to every appropriate device upon certification.
Section 3 – Software Installation
A configuration software program is included with Setup/Programming Cable
Model: REC6-PC. This cable and software allows you to program, setup and
scale the output of your transceiver before installation. This accessory is not
included with your transceiver and must be purchased separately.
Your PC should meet the following minimum requirements:
• Pentium Class processor
• Hard Drive Space: 210 meg
• Ram: 256 meg or higher
• 1 Available USB Port
• 1 CD-ROM Drive
• Windows 2000, XB, Vista (32bit) or Windows 7 operating system
1. Install configuration software in one of two ways:
a. Download Configuration Software by going to the “FTP Site” section at the
www.omega.com website.
b. Insert your software CD into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. Follow the on
screen instructions to begin the installation wizard.

2. Click “Next” to continue with the installation.
3. If you accept the terms of the License Agreement, select “I accept the terms in
the license agreement” and click “Next.”
4. Click “Install” to begin installing the software.
5. Once the program has been installed, Click “Finish” to close the installation
wizard screen.
Section 4 – Receiver Setup & Output Scaling
You must complete the software installation procedure in
Section 3 before connecting and attempting to setup or
operate your transceiver
4.1 Power/Analog Output Connection
Your wireless transceiver is supplied with an integral 4-conductor cable. DC
power must be applied during the setup and scaling process.
Fig 4-1. Power/Analog Output Connection
4.2 Setup/Programming Cable Connection
Your transceiver requires you to perform setup and scaling prior to placing into
operation. Setup/Programming Cable and Software Model REC6-PC (sold
separately) are required to complete this process.

4.3 Configuration Software
The configuration software that is included with model REC6-PC
Setup/Programming Cable allows you to set the transceiver to receive wireless
signals from one transmitting device.
This cable is only used during setup and scaling and should be removed before
placing your transceiver into operation.
The transceiver configuration software is imbedded into Omega’s universal
wireless software known as TC-CENTRAL. To open and run the configuration
program for your transceiver, follow the steps shown below.
All other functions and menu features included in the TC-
CENTRAL software are not used with your model transceiver
and will not function.

From the “Tools” tab, select “Configure Receiver”. This will open the Setup and
Scaling window shown below. From here you must set the transceiver up to
match the same parameters you used when you setup and programmed your
wireless transmitter. Follow and set each required parameter.
Fig 4-4. Setup and Scaling Screen
Before you can make wireless measurements, your transceiver must be
configured properly. The following steps outline how to setup your transceiver.
(1) Operating Channels (Frequencies)
The default factory setting is channel “B”. This matches the default setting that
the MWTC Series Wireless Thermocouple connectors are also programmed to
from the factory. You can change the channel selection if you are experiencing a
disturbance at 915 Mhz. Keep in mind that the channel setting must match the
same channel setting on the transmitting wireless connector. You must have both
the connector and transceiver set to the same channel.
(2) Address
You must enter the same address number into this box that you set when
programming your wireless connector, click on the “Up” and “Down” buttons to
advance to a higher or lower address number.
(3) Timeout
The “Timeout” setting is used to set how long you want the unit to continue
showing the last reading of data when communication between the connector
and transceiver has been lost.
(4) Process Units
This setting allows you to change the current units of measurement. You can
change between °C, °F or °K

(5) Scaling
Scaling sets and adjusts the analog voltage output to match a user defined
temperature range.
(6) Transfer Functions
This feature has been provided to aid you in determining and understanding
what effect changes to the “scaling” setting will have on the output of your
transceiver.
(7) Calculator
This feature has been provided as a reference only
Section 5 – Installation
A mounting bracket was included with your transceiver. Dimensions are shown
below. To optimize for the best wireless reception and increase the distance
between your transceiver and your wireless thermocouple connector your unit
should be mounted in the same vertical or horizontal plane as each other.

5.1 Horizontal Antenna Placement
Figure 5-2. Proper Installation (Horizontal)
If your Connector/Transmitter is mounted in a horizontal position in your
application you should mount your receiving so that the same polarization is
achieved with the receiving antenna. As shown in the “Horizontal” example above.
5.2 Vertical Antenna Placement
If your Connector/Transmitter is
mounted in a vertical position in your
application you should mount your
receiving so that the same
polarization is achieved with the
receiving antenna. As shown in the
“Vertical” example
