Narrative:

We flew up to teb and dropped our passengers and proceeded to wait at the FBO for further instructions from our dispatch. We sat in the FBO till we got word to reposition for a departure the next day. We started engines and taxied out for departure. We were cleared via the ruudy 2 departure. My first officer studied the departure prior to taxi out. I also read the departure and we briefed the departure prior to takeoff. The departure was an RNAV departure and was loaded in the FMS and confirmed to be correct. The first officer asked me to confirm the departure once again before takeoff because of its length and complexity. We both believed that the departure read that we need to be at wentz intersection by at least 1500 MSL and the following intersection by 2000 MSL. We were given our clearance for takeoff off 24 from teb tower. As we departed we turned via the ruudy 2 and climbed. We were then switched over to departure and checked in. We were climbing through about 1800 MSL about 1-2 miles from wentz intersection. It was at this time the controller said; 'aren't you supposed to be level at 1500 to wentz?' I said; 'we were given 2000 for our initial altitude'. The controller then said; 'weren't you given the ruudy 2 departure?' I replied after confirming that were given that departure with; 'yes we were'. The controller said; 'not a problem just be more aware for next time'. He gave us a vector shortly after and no conflicts were reported.

Title: A CE560XL failed to comply with the altitude restrictions on the RUUDY RNAV SID from TEB.

Narrative: We flew up to TEB and dropped our passengers and proceeded to wait at the FBO for further instructions from our Dispatch. We sat in the FBO till we got word to reposition for a departure the next day. We started engines and taxied out for departure. We were cleared via the RUUDY 2 departure. My First Officer studied the departure prior to taxi out. I also read the departure and we briefed the departure prior to takeoff. The departure was an RNAV departure and was loaded in the FMS and confirmed to be correct. The First Officer asked me to confirm the departure once again before takeoff because of its length and complexity. We both believed that the departure read that we need to be at WENTZ intersection by at least 1500 MSL and the following intersection by 2000 MSL. We were given our clearance for takeoff off 24 from TEB Tower. As we departed we turned via the RUUDY 2 and climbed. We were then switched over to Departure and checked in. We were climbing through about 1800 MSL about 1-2 miles from WENTZ intersection. It was at this time the Controller said; 'Aren't you supposed to be level at 1500 to WENTZ?' I said; 'We were given 2000 for our initial altitude'. The Controller then said; 'Weren't you given the RUUDY 2 departure?' I replied after confirming that were given that departure with; 'yes we were'. The Controller said; 'Not a problem just be more aware for next time'. He gave us a vector shortly after and no conflicts were reported.
