2. Launch the app. When it starts it will automatically start a search for Mopeka sensors.

3. Press and hold SYNC button until sensor appears on app. (up to 10 seconds)

4. The sensor will then appear on your app as a new device.

5. Sensor is now Sync’d. You may now proceed to installing the sensor on the tank.

For Steel Tanks

6. Clean the bottom of the tank of any debris, excess paint, and rust.

7. If your tank sits directly on the ground or other flat surface, then install the spacers to the bottom of the foot ring of your tank. This will provide adequate space and improved wireless range for the sensor.

8. The sensor mounts to the bottom center of the tank using magnets. The rubber pad between the magnets must make good contact with the tank, with no contaminants in between and must be aligned to the bottom center of the tank.

9. Apply a generous amount of the supplied sonic grease directly to the rubber pad before attaching sensor to the tank.

10. Install sensor on tank such that rubber pad is aligned with the bottom, center of tank.

14.1. Introduction

Mopeka Pro Check-Water and Pro Check-Sensor LPG support has been added to Venus OS. These ultrasonic sensors use BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy), a wireless technology that allows devices to be networked within a range of about 10 meters, while consuming significantly less power compared to ordinary Bluetooth technology.

The Mopeka Pro sensors feature ultrasonic sensing for water and LPG tanks in horizontal or vertical cylinders and mount to the bottom of those tanks by magnets. The liquid level, temperature and sensor battery voltage is streamed wirelessly to the GX device.

Note that the Cerbo GX & Cerbo-S GX built-in Bluetooth connection is disabled when the internal CPU temperature exceeds 53 degrees C (influenced by load and/or ambient temperature). For reliable operation it is necessary to use a USB Bluetooth adapter.

USB Bluetooth adapters that have been tested and known to work:

Insignia (NS-PCY5BMA2)
Logilink BT0037
TP-Link UB400(UN)
Ewent EW1085R4
Laird BT820
Laird BT851
Kinivo BTD-400
Ideapro USB bluetooth adapter 4.0

A list of additional adapters that are also being tested, as well as adapters that have been tested and are known not to work, is available here: https://community.victronenergy.com/questions/112834/connect-ruuvi-to-ccgx.html

14.2. Installation

The installation of the Mopeka Pro sensor is very simple. First, however, the sensor must be installed according to Mopeka's installation instructions and configured via the Mopeka Tank app (available in Google Play and Apple App Store). Then the installation and configuration is done in the GX device as described below.

Scroll up or down and select the appropriate sensor.
Press the right arrow key or space bar on that sensor to open up the sensor Setup menu.
Scroll down to Setup and right arrow key or space bar again to open up the sensors Setup menu.
In the Setup menu you can change the tank capacity, select the liquid type and volume unit, set up calibration values for empty and full tank levels and read the actual sensor value.
After setup, go back to the Sensor overview menu.
Scroll down, select Device and press the right arrow key or space bar again to open up the device settings menu.
In the Device menu you can assign a custom name to the sensor and read out some additional device information.
Repeat steps 1..8 if you want to set up additional sensors.
