Description
FUNCTIONALITY
Operation: The endpoint continuously monitors the encoder circuit. At predetermined intervals, the endpoint broadcasts the totalized reading value along with other meter data to the mobile collection devices.
Activation: The endpoints offer a Smart Activation feature. All ORION endpoints are shipped in an inactive, non-transmitting state. After the endpoint is installed, it begins broadcasting data when the encoder senses the first usage of water. No field programming or tools are required to activate the endpoint.
Broadcast Mode: Once activated, the endpoints begin transmitting in mobile priority mode. After installation, using the endpoint two-way communication, an endpoint transmits its meter data every six seconds.
Data Profiling: The endpoints store up to 90 days of hourly historical interval meter data within nonvolatile memory. Output Message: The endpoint broadcasts its unique serial number, current meter reading, daily snapped meter reading and applicable status indicators for mobile reading collection.
APPLICATION
Configurations: Available in integral, remote or endpoint-only configurations, the endpoint can be deployed in indoor, outdoor and pit applications. The endpoint electronics and battery assembly are fully encapsulated in epoxy for environmental integrity.
Meter Compatibility: When attached to a Badger Meter encoder, the endpoint is compatible with all current Badger Meter Recordall® Disc, Turbo Series, Compound Series, Combo Series and Fire Service meters and assemblies, and with E-Series® Ultrasonic and M-Series® Electromagnetic flow meters.
Encoder Compatibility: The endpoint is suitable for use with all Badger Meter encoders as well as the following Badger Meter approved three-wire encoder registers that have a manufacture date of 2000 or newer, are programmed into the AMR/AMI three-wire output mode and have three-wires connected:
- Elster C700 Digital, InVISION and ScanCoder® encoders and evoQ4 meter (encoder output); Hersey® Translator; Master Meter® Octave®
