May 2014 Page 7 ORION® Fixed Network – Metal Lid Endpoint ORION FIXED NETWORK - METAL LID ENDPOINTS This section contains information regarding identification, encoder compatibility and wiring, and activation for ORION Fixed Network endpoints. ORION Fixed Network endpoints have a serial number range of 30000000 to 599999999. Encoder Connectivity,Wiring and Read Resolution ORION Metal Lid endpoints are available for connectivity to Badger Meter encoders and E-Series Ultrasonic meters as well as a number of competitive encoders as shown in chart below. Endpoints are shipped from the factory pre-programmed and are available in a three-wire configuration for connection to the encoders noted. Endpoint installation kit instructions begin at "Endpoint Installation" on page 7. The ORION Metal Lid endpoint is a three-wire metering endpoint device that requires connection to an encoder to complete the assembly. All three wires must be connected to complete an installation. The connection can be made to either existing wires from the encoder or directly to the terminal screws of the encoder, depending on the application and manufacturer. Follow the manufacturer’s installation kit instructions provided with the gel splice or field splice kit you are using. NNOTE: Due to the customized, factory wire configurations of the Hersey Translator, the terminal posts may not match the ORION endpoint wire colors. Please contact Hersey for the terminal post wiring schematic of your encoders to determine how the posts correspond to ORION endpoint wires.

Encoder registers that are currently in two-wire mode of operation require programming by the Utility, including registers that support auto two- or three-wire detection systems that do not automatically switch to three-wire mode of operation once a compatible endpoint is connected for ORION connectivity. NNOTE: For those endpoint connections that are not equipped with inline connectors, see "Wiring an ORION Endpoint to an Encoder" on page 10. Page 8 May 2014 Installation Manual Activating the Endpoint ORION Metal Lid endpoints are shipped in an inactive, non-transmitting state known as “Pause” mode. NNOTE: Endpoints shipped via air are shipped in “Stop” (hard sleep) mode and must be activated via infrared (IR) communication using an ORION handheld or mobile reading system and the ORION Endpoint Utility software. RTR When an RTR is mounted on the water meter, and the ORION Metal Lid endpoint is connected to the RTR for the first time, the endpoint will register a tamper, which must be cleared before the ORION system is ready for operation. Use the ORION handheld or mobile meter reading equipment to program and set the endpoint odometer value. HR-E or ADE When an HR-E or ADE is mounted on the water meter, and the ORION endpoint connected to the encoder is securely installed, the ORION system is ready for operation. The endpoint will turn on with water usage. It requires up to one fifteen minute reading interval where consumption changes the electronic reading. For example, with an ORION endpoint connected to an eight-dial HR-E or six-dial ADE, the encoder must detect consumption of 10 gallons over a fifteen minute reading period before the endpoint will begin broadcasting data. Once the endpoint begins broadcasting, it will update hourly based on the encoder odometer reading. No specific wire testing or endpoint programming is required. NNOTE: Reading an ORION endpoint with the ORION handheld or mobile meter reading equipment immediately after installation verifies proper operation and reading performance. ft High Resolution ELCD Encoder or E-Series Ultrasonic Meter dr When an HR-ELCD encoder is mounted on the water meter, or when an E-Series Ultrasonic meter is installed, and the ORION endpoint connected to the encoder or E-Series Ultrasonic meter is securely installed, the ORION system is ready for operation. The endpoint will turn on with water usage. When using consumption, the endpoint requires one fifteen minute interval where the least significant digit on the encoder changes before it will begin broadcasting data. Once the endpoint has begun broadcasting, it will update hourly based on the HR-E LCD encoder or High Resolution E-Series Ultrasonic meter odometer reading. No specific wire testing or endpoint programming is required. NNOTE: Reading an ORION endpoint with the ORION handheld or mobile meter reading equipment immediately after installation verifies proper operation and reading performance. Confirming an Installation Before leaving the installation site, the installer can use an ORION handheld or mobile reading system to confirm the endpoint wiring has been done correctly and that the endpoint is broadcasting RF data for reading. See the appropriate handheld or mobile reading system user manuals for more information. May 2014 Page 9 ORION® Fixed Network – Metal Lid Endpoint WIRING AN ORION ENDPOINT TO AN ENCODER An ORION endpoint is a three-wire metering endpoint device that requires connection to an encoder to complete the assembly. All three wires must be connected to complete an installation. The ORION endpoint connection can be made to either existing wires from the encoder or directly to the terminal screws of the encoder, depending on the application and manufacturer. If making a connection to existing wires, use the installation kit provided. Refer to the charts starting on page 8 for the endpoint type and determine which wires need to be connected to complete an installation. Splicing Guidelines For those connections that are not factory wired or equipped with inline connectors, follow these guidelines when splicing is required, either for installation or to fix a repair after a tamper. NNOTE: ORION endpoints are shipped factory pre-wired to a Badger Meter encoder and require no splicing. It is only necessary to connect the endpoint connector to the encoder connector, mount the encoder to the meter and tighten the TORX® seal screw to complete installation. For pit environments, splice connections require a field splice kit (62084-001), which can be ordered separately. Refer to the instructions found in the document, Field Splice Kit for Badger Meter AMR/AMI Products, which is available at www.badgermeter.com. • For all installations, excess wire should be coiled and cable tied to avoid any damage. • Required splicing tools are shown here. Page 10 Badger Meter Part Number dr Splice Tools (Customer Supplied) ft • • Gel Splice Crimping Tool 59983-001 • Coax Wire Stripper 59989-001 • Wire Cutter n/a May 2014 Installation Manual Using Gel Caps to Connect an Encoder Follow these steps when using Badger Meter supplied gel caps. 1. To connect an encoder with existing wires to an ORION endpoint, strip approximately 1-1/2 inches of outer insulation sheath from the encoder and endpoint cables using a coax stripping tool. We recommend using the Badger Meter Coax Stripper (59989-001). USE CAUTION WHEN REMOVING THE OUTER SHEATH SO THAT THE INNER SIGNAL WIRE INSULATION IS NOT NICKED OR DAMAGED. 2. Unwind the outer foil shield from the endpoint cable and cut it off even with the outer sheath using wire cutting pliers. 3. Connect the ORION endpoint to an approved encoder. Verify the endpoint serial number prior to completing the wiring setup. • Connect the encoder cable wires to the ORION endpoint wires using the insulation gel caps provided in the installation kit. Refer to the charts starting on page 8 for the endpoint type and determine which wires need to be connected to complete an installation. ft NNOTE: The terminal posts and wire colors may not match. • dr DO NOT STRIP ANY INSULATION FROM THE ENDS OF THE WIRES BEFORE YOU PUSH THEM INTO THE GEL CAP. Insert the wires from each cable end as far as possible into the gel cap. See Figure 27. Figure 3: Wires in gel cap • Using a crimping tool such as the Badger Meter Gel Splice Crimping Tool (59983-001), place the gel cap with the wires into the jaws of the crimping tool. Figure 4: Gel cap in crimping tool • May 2014 Crimp the gel cap by squeezing the crimping tool handles until the gel cap is completely compressed. The crimp tool is designed to prevent applying too much pressure to the gel cap. Apply pressure for three seconds. Page 11 ORION® Fixed Network – Metal Lid Endpoint Figure 5: Compress the gel cap • Repeat the crimping procedure for the remaining gel caps and wires. 4. Attach the two plastic cable ties and tighten securely for strain relief. Snip off the excess cable tie with the wire cutter. Figure 6: Wire tie attachment locations Testing Wire Connections ft 5. To complete the pit installations, use an appropriate secondary field splice kit. If using the Badger Meter Field Splice Kit, refer to the Field Splice Kit Application Data Sheet provided with the kit. dr It is recommended that you test all wiring connections to confirm connectivity and to verify the ORION endpoint reading and the encoder reading are the same. The connections can be tested using the Quick Read function with either an ORION handheld or mobile data collector.
