Installation Instructions
DataSource915
Description
DataSource915 attaches to the following water meter registers:
•
Single pulse,
•
Master Meter Dual-Pulse,
•
Electronic encoded AMCO Scancoder,
•
Electronic encoded (ECR),
•
Electronic encoded Neptune / Schlumberger ARB V,
•
Electronic encoded ProRead/AutoDetect/E-CoderTM registers.*
8.
NOTE: Max reading (pulse) = 16,777,215
Max reading (encoder) = 9,999,999 - left most digits are dropped.
If appropriate check that encoder status is reported as 0. Encoder
error codes are shown in the Encoder Status table below.
Error Codes
Tamper
*With E-Coder registers DataSource915 will read register ID and reading
only.
Single pulse mode allows tamper readings of 1 through 63 which
indicates a count of the tamper wire disconnections. The value should be
recorded at the time of connection and any subsequent increments should
be investigated.
DataSource915 sends meter data via radio frequency (RF) signal to a
receiving unit; HandTrackIT®, FastTrackIT® or CellTrackIT®.
Dual-Pulse mode does not allow tamper detection because all wires are
used to count pulses.
Required Tools & Equipment
Encoder Status
The following items are recommended for proper DataSource915
installation:
•
3M® Type UY2 gel-filled splice connectors and crimping pliers.
•
Computer running Windows XP®, 2000®, 98® or NT®.
•
ConFigIT® device (Mod Strike 14 or higher) and ConFigIT
software version 6.5.07 or higher.
•
ConFigIT cable, part number 330-190-10 (Lemo) or 320-300-10
(9-pin Dtype).
•
4 AA batteries or power cable.
•
HandTrackIT, FastTrackIT, or CellTrackIT receiver with
connecting cable.
The encoders will display the following codes:

Connect DataSource915 to the meter register using 3M Type UY2
gel-filled splice connectors and gel cap crimping pliers.
If the default settings (see ‘Factory Default Settings’ section) are
suitable for the installation then:
•
DataSource915 can be activated without ConFigIT by using a
small bar or horseshoe magnet. Ensure that the magnet is held
vertically over the center of DataSource915 just below the
stripe.
If the default settings need to be changed, use the ConFigIT device
and software:
•
After performing as READ, select the register required from the
pull down list.
•
To use DataSource915 with ProRead, AutoDetect or E-Coder
register, set meter interface mode to ‘AutoDetect’.
•
To use ID printed on the side of DataSource915 case, select
‘Use current ID’ button.
•
To enter new ID, select ‘Programmed by User’ button and enter
ID in the cell below button.
•
Set leak detection threshold to required value.
•
Turn on DataSource915 by setting Transmit Interval (default
setting is every 5 seconds) to 5 or 10 secs for FastTrackIt, 10
secs or greater for HandTrackIt. The transmit interval for
CellTrackIt operation depends on the required sample rate.
Ensure that the MIF wire terminations at the meter are waterproofed
in accordance with the Meter manufactures installation procedures.
Mount DataSource915 as described in “Mounting Instructions”
section above.
Verify that the signal is received with the appropriate receiving
device from the desired location.
Verify that the reading corresponds to the visual indication on the
meter register.
