System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Introduction The Datamatic MOSAIC Mesh System is an automatic meter reading system designed for reading meter data remotely and wirelessly. This is accomplished using the Datamatic MOSAIC Mesh system that forms a mesh network with neighboring MOSAIC FIREFLYs and reports data to the MOSAIC Software Interface through strategically placed MOSAIC Gateway devices. MOSAIC FIREFLYs can be deployed using walk-by, mobile, and MOSAIC Mesh collection platforms. The main benefits of using The Datamatic MOSAIC Mesh system are: • • • • • • Real time access to meter reading data Built in logging of up to 240 days of hourly consumption data Meter lids do not have to be removed for reads Meter pits do not have to be dug out or pumped out for reads Safer meter reading procedure Visiting the site is not necessary for data collection Please consult the MOSAIC Software Guide for user instructions regarding data access, configuring or upgrading the MOSAIC Mesh FIREFLY System. After reviewing this guide you should be able to successfully deploy the MOSAIC FIREFLYs for your system.

System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Sensor-end MOSAIC FIREFLY Lid Lock The preferred installation method in a water pit environment is to use the Lid Lock system. The Lid Lock adapter holds the MOSAIC FIREFLY securely and allows the MOSAIC FIREFLY to be easily screwed into the Lid Lock. -9- Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Remote Shutoff Valve The Remote Shutoff Valve (RSV) is used in conjunction with the MOSAIC FIREFLY (D411X only) to control water service termination, providing utilities with a convenient method to deploy water shut-off service. The FIREFLY can issue commands to the RSV to Open, Close, or report its current status (open or closed). There are three software/firmware components to the RSV system. These are ROADRUNNER software, radio firmware, and the FIREFLY firmware. To ensure proper functionality of any RSV, the units should be loaded with the minimum software/firmware listed below: ROADRUNNER CE 3.26.4 Radio firmware 1.3.20 FIREFLY D4110 firmware 1.5.2 • • • Batteries: Dual CR 2 lithium battery pack with an output of 6V Construction: brass plated ball-valve with anon-corroding compound; able to operate at a 150 psi pressure and compliant with AWWA Standard C700-02, section 4.2.9 Operating Temperature Range: -1 C to +60 C - 10 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Installation Considerations • Signal distance varies depending on the location of the MOSAIC FIREFLY. Those installed above ground or through plastic lids generally transmit the greatest distance. • The material of a pit or vault lid greatly affects the transmission range. For example, a transmitter has a greater range sending from a pit with a plastic lid than a cast iron lid. A FIREFLY mounted under any type of lid is subject to flooding. Since water impedes RF transmission it is best to mount through the lid using a Lid Lock. • Lids with holes of a diameter of roughly 1 ¾ inches make it possible to mount the MOSAIC FIREFLY through the lid. This can increase transmission range significantly and protect against loss of signal due to flooded pits. It is not recommended to install FIREFLYs under iron or metal lids as RF performance is degraded. • Complete field installation of a MOSAIC FIREFLY takes five to ten minutes, depending on the meter location and mounting application. • If the lid has a hole for the unit, use the Lid Lock, Lid Lock adapter, and appropriate washer. Ensure that enough space exists between the meter box lid and the ground for the MOSAIC FIREFLY to fit. If not, remove some of the dirt from the bottom of the meter. Do not overtighten Lid Locks. • Some meters may be located in such a manner that they require the addition of repeaters to reach the mesh. • Some areas of your service territory may not have the density to warrant the use of the mesh your project manager will alert you to these areas where units can be placed into a drive-by mode. • Profile data uses more mesh bandwidth and as such can require the use of additional repeaters and/or Gateways. • The system requires ongoing maintenance - make sure to have the proper equipment and training to maintain the system after your installation contractor leaves. • Do not attempt to repair or trouble-shoot equipment without the proper equipment and training. - 11 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD.

System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Installing and Programming Sensor-End MOSAIC FIREFLYs in mesh mode Installing the Sensor-end MOSAIC FIREFLY The Datamatic Sensor FIREFLY for water meter applications relies on pulses of infra-red light emitted by the sensor head four times a second and are directed at the face of the register dial. Sensors in the head then read the infra-red light pulses reflected off the register face to determine if the needle has passed underneath the sensor head. The successful sensing of the needle passage then depends on the unrestricted light transmission from the light-emitting source in the sensor, through the air between the source and the register lens, the register lens, the atmosphere in the register, the reflectance of the register dial face and the reflected light’s transmission back through those elements to the sensor. The performance of the Datamatic Sensor FIREFLY for water meter applications could be affected unless the following requirements are maintained: • • • • • Register lens face must be free of scratches to allow for a permanent, water-tight seal with the sensor. Register lens material must be clear, free of cloudy imperfections or milky tones, etc. Register must have a solid colored, radius-type needle (no full-diameter needles). Register must be permanently sealed, with a completely dry register cavity - no water, moisture or dirt or humidity fogging can be present in the register. Register conditions must allow for the Datamatic Sensor FIREFLY to generate a minimum background value of 100. Note - There will be a percentage of meter registers in every system, depending on age and condition of meters, which may require replacement based on failures of above in order to support the Sensor FIREFLY. You should incorporate these requirements in your ongoing water meter maintenance program. The 4 P’s of Installation 1. 2. 3. 4. Preparation Placement Pressure Programming #1 Preparation of the Meter a) b) c) d) e) Remove meter box lid and check for meter serial number. Survey the meter, checking lid, hole depth, and overall cleanliness. Check for meter disqualification. Enter the corresponding skip code if necessary. Place sensor flap onto FIREFLY cable. Flip lid back and pre-clean meter face/lens using Work Out Waterless Hand Cleaner or Fast Orange non-pumice cleaner and a cloth or cotton swab to remove residue. f) Clean meter face/lens with 99% isopropyl alcohol and a NEW lint-free cotton swab. g) Re-wipe the surface of the meter lens with a clean, new cotton swab each time until the swab comes up clean, and the clean lens squeaks when wiped. h) After cleaning, ensure that the lens is completely dry; allow time for the alcohol to evaporate. - 23 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 NOTE: Only use isopropyl rubbing alcohol marked “99% by volume”. Lower concentrations, such as the commonly available 91%, do not clean or evaporate well and adversely affect sensor-to-meter bond. #2 Placement of the Sensor a) Insert sensor cable through sensor flap. b) Remove the adhesive backing from the high-bond tape on the optic sensor face. c) Orient the sensor so the water meter needle approaches the sensor from the cable side and perpendicular to the cable. There are marks on each side of the sensor base that are to be in line with the needle when it passes. Do not place the sensor over any moving part or the sweep hand of the register. Normally, place sensor along outer edge of register. Here is an example of correct Sensor Placement #3 Pressure – To the Sensor on the Meter NOTE: Since the 3M tape provides a pressure sensitive seal, the installer must apply 15 lbs. of pressure to the FIREFLY optical sensor immediately after attaching to the lens surface for a minimum of 60 seconds. a) Very Important: Press the adhesive down for 60+ seconds using 15 lbs of pressure. Allow 24-96 hours to cure. b) Fasten the cable to the register with a zip tie. c) Place Goop-Plumber’s Adhesive #15112 (purple tube) around the edge of the sensor and under the tail of the sensor. Do not squirt the adhesive UNDER the 3M seal. The goal is to provide a temporary water barrier between the meter face and the edge of the sensor, so that the 3M adhesive can cure properly. d) Position the flap at the base of the sensor so that it folds over and “hangs” above the register to try to keep most of the stray light out while it processes through AutoCAL. The flap will be “pulled” over the sensor snuggly lying flatter on the meter during the Read and Verify procedure that will be discussed later. #4 Programming (see below) - 24 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD.

Repeaters are ideally placed above ground with the antenna in a vertical position. When using FIREFLYs as repeaters, they can be placed in pits, but a resulting loss of RF performance should be anticipated. For best results and maximum coverage mount the repeater similar to the picture above. - 36 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Load Firmware Load Firmware Image to OREO After the user selects the ‘Load Firmware’ option, the following dialog is displayed: MESH – Datamatic fixed network technology. All FIREFLYs are networked and reads are collected via Gateways then displayed in the MOSAIC software. Fence – Datamatic non-mesh technology. All FIREFLY reads are collected via a ROADRUNNER handheld or drive by ROADRUNNER Mobile system. Options 3 and 5 allow loading firmware images to Fence devices and options 2 and 4 allows loading firmware images to a MESH device. If the user is loading a firmware image from one type to another type, i.e. from Fence to MESH or from MESH to Fence, if the image is being loaded into the primary image location, the software will temporarily switch the radio mode to match the new expected mode when the firmware image loading process has completed. This will allow the software to verify that the image loaded correctly. When the user exits the firmware loading dialogs, the software will switch the radio mode back to the original settings (if necessary) prior to the firmware image loading operation. If the user chooses the Update OREO firmware option, the load firmware image to OREO dialog will be displayed but only OREO images will be shown in the display. The user can then select an image to send to the OREO. Once there is an OREO image in the secondary image location, the user will then be given the option to boot swap the OREO images by pressing the Blue Key + 'B'. If the OREO secondary firmware image already contains an OREO firmware image when the dialog is opened, the user will immediately have the option to send a new image or boot swap the primary and secondary images. The following screen shots are examples of upgrading the OREO firmware. - 37 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 After a new OREO firmware image has been loaded into the secondary image location of the OREO, the user will then have the option to swap the OREO firmware images by pressing the Blue Key + ‘B’ key to initiate the boot swap. After the user initiates the boot swap the following dialog is displayed: The software must first verify that the secondary firmware image in the OREO is an image targeted for the OREO hardware. If the secondary image is not an OREO image, the image swap will not be allowed. The following screen shot is an example: - 38 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 If the secondary firmware image is a valid OREO firmware image, the software will then proceed to swap the images as shown in the following screen shot: After the image swap has been completed, the following messages are displayed in the status dialog: - 39 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 The software disconnects from the radio and then attempts to reconnect in order to verify that the radio is working properly after the firmware image swap. After the image swap is complete, the Load Firmware Image dialog is redisplayed along with the updated OREO firmware images as shown in the following dialog: Note that the primary and secondary firmware images have been swapped. If the user loads an updated OREO firmware version to the OREO, when the user returns to the main menu, the software will check the OREO version to verify it is compatible with the radio settings. This is mainly due to the fact that 1.3.20 does not support communicating with MESH devices through the binary interface. If the OREO firmware version is not compatible with the radio communication settings, the settings will be automatically updated to match those supported by the OREO firmware. The user will be notified when this occurs. The following dialog is an example: NOTE: It is highly recommend updating the OREO firmware to version 1.5.12 immediately after loading CXMI 1.3 to the hand held. CXMI 1.3 will be supplied with ROADRUNNER 3.26.3 and 3.26.4 bin files. OREO firmware version 1.5.12 is also supplied in these bin files. Once the transfer has completed, the user will be returned to the list of available firmware images dialog box. The firmware image was transferred to the secondary image on the OREO. If the image loaded is to replace the existing OREO image, a boot swap command must be done to move the image to the primary location. - 40 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Load Image to FIREFLY To load a firmware image to the FIREFLY the user will select option 2 or 3 from the Load Firmware dialog: The firmware image that will be sent to the FIREFLY is the image that is stored in the secondary image location within the OREO. So in order to send a firmware image to a FIREFLY, the image must first be loaded into the OREO. After selecting option 2 or 3, the user will be prompted for the serial number of the FIREFLY: After entering the serial number, the ‘Send Firmware Image to FIREFLY’ dialog is displayed: - 41 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 NOTE: Choosing “Destination: Both” will only work when upgrading firmware in the same mode (i.e. mesh to mesh or non-mesh to non-mesh). Immediately the application begins requesting a list of the current firmware images stored in the FIREFLY. After a few seconds, these images are displayed in the list control at the bottom of the screen: Once the application has a list of firmware images from the FIREFLY, it displays the current image that is available in the OREO for sending to the FIREFLY. If the firmware image that will be sent to the FIREFLY from the OREO already exists in the secondary image location in the FIREFLY, it will be indicated as in the following screen shot: It determines that the images are the same by examining the version, firmware type and build date. If all three of these are the same, the message is displayed. If the image does not already exist in the FIREFLY, the user will be required to press the Blue (FNCTN) key and the S key to start the transfer from the OREO to the FIREFLY. When sending the image the software will display the progress of the transfer as shown in the following dialog: - 42 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 After the transfer has completed, a message is displayed on the screen indicating that the transfer is almost done (re-activate the FIREFLY if needed): After the transfer has completed, a message is displayed on the screen indicating that the transfer is done: It should be noted that the FIREFLY goes inactive after the transfer has completed. In order to swap the image into primary location on the FIREFLY, the boot swap command must be issued to the FIREFLY from the command line. - 43 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD.

It should be noted that only a single command can be executed at a time. - 48 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Edit Export Definition The data export feature will allow exporting most of the data items captured during the FIREFLY configuration process. In order to export data that has been captured, a definition that defines the order of the fields in the export file as well as the fields to be export must be created. To create a new export definition or to edit an existing export definition, the user will select option ‘5’ from the main menu. This option is the Edit Export Definition option. After selecting option 5, the following dialog is displayed: The list in the dialog shows the existing definitions that have been set up previously. To edit an existing definition, the user will highlight the definition that requires modification and press the ‘Edit’ button. To create a new definition, the user will press the ‘New’ button. If the user selects either the new button or selects to edit an existing definition, the following dialog is displayed: - 49 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 When setting up a new definition, the user will be required to enter a definition name. The delimiter option allows the user to specify how the fields will be separated in the export file. There are three available separators the user can choose from: Comma, Semicolon, and Tab. The default selection is to separate the fields in the exported file by commas. There are two list views on the dialog. The list control on the left shows the data items that are selected to be exported. The list control on the right shows the available data items that can be exported. In order to select an available item, the user must highlight the item to be included in the export and press the ‘Select’ button. This action will move the item from the ‘Available’ list control to the ‘Selected’ list control. The following dialog is an example of moving the ‘Target Background’ field to the ‘Selected’ list. Only one item can be selected at a time. This process can be used to move several items to the ‘Selected’ list until the ‘Selected’ list contains all of the items of interest to be exported. The items will be exported in the order that they appear in the ‘Selected’ list. The following screen shot is an example of setting up a definition to export lat/long data. - 50 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD.

The file name will be the same name as the definition file with the ‘.DEF’ extension removed and an ‘.EXP’ extension will be added. Also, the date will be added to the name of the file. For example, using the above definition name, the output file would be ‘latlongtest_20090209.EXP’. The exported data will be stored for up to 90 days before being automatically deleted. - 53 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 Joining the MESH Network/LED Status General LED Information LED Key: Slow blink = on and off once per second Fast blink = on and off four times per second = Meter Indicator = Mesh Indicator Swipe the magnet in the box area surrounding the lights. After a successful magnet swipe, the green light will be solid for a very short period of time to confirm that the MOSAIC FIREFLY is initializing. If the green light is fast blinking with no red light activity, there is a possibility that the real time clock (RTC) has stopped and the FIREFLY will need to be returned via RMA. A solid GREEN LED indicates that the MOSAIC FIREFLY has received a valid message from the mesh. Confirmation that the MOSAIC FIREFLY has successfully transmitted to the mesh is indicated by the appearance of the FF in the MOSAIC software. Generally, in mesh mode the GREEN LED indicates the status of MOSAIC FIREFLY communications with the mesh. The RED LED indicates the status of MOSAIC FIREFLY communications with the meter. After a certain amount of time, the LEDs will go out during normal operation. This is a power-save mode. The MOSAIC FIREFLYs will be performing normally, but not exhibiting LED behavior. When MOSAIC FIREFLYs are in “ship mode” they are literally turned off and can be reactivated by following normal installation procedures. MOSAIC FIREFLYs in non-mesh mode do not communicate via the mesh. The RED LED indicates the status of the MOSIAC FIREFLY’s communications with the meter. The RED and GREEN LEDs flash in unison every 5 seconds to indicate that the MOSIAC FIREFLY is functioning in non-mesh mode. - 54 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 MOSAIC FIREFLYs Connected to an Encoded Meter (Mesh Mode) After a successful initial swipe, the GREEN LED will flash slowly as the MOSAIC FIREFLY searches for the mesh. When communication has been established with a node already connected to the mesh (MOSAIC Gateway, Repeater or another MOSAIC FIREFLY) the GREEN LED will go solid. Additionally, the RED LED will flash slowly until it detects the encoder. If the MOSAIC FIREFLY successfully connects to the encoder, the RED LED will go solid. If the RED LED flashes quickly, the MOSAIC FIREFLY has detected its connection to a meter, but has not received an acknowledgement that verifies it is connected to a supported encoder. In this scenario, the wires may not be connected correctly or the encoder may not be supported in the current MOSAIC FIREFLY firmware. If the RED LED flashes slowly, the MOSAIC FIREFLY is searching for an acknowledgement from a meter, but has not received any. The MOSAIC FIREFLY will continue to wait for an acknowledgement, but will eventually go into ship mode if none is received. The MOSAIC FIREFLY is successfully connected to an encoded meter and the mesh when both the GREEN and RED LEDs are solid. MOSAIC FIREFLYs Connected to a Pulse Meter (Mesh Mode) After a successful initial swipe, the RED LED will blink slowly until it detects a connection with a pulse meter. NOTE: this happens very quickly. Once the MOSAIC FIREFLY detects the connection to a pulse meter, the RED LED blinks quickly until 5 meter pulses are detected. Once 5 pulses are detected, the RED LED will go solid. If the MOSAIC FRIEFLY is not wired correctly, the RED LED will continue blink slowly, or the MOSAIC FIREFLY could go back into ship mode (meaning the RED LED will go off after the magnet swipe). MOSAIC Sensor-end FIREFLYs (Mesh Mode) After a successful magnet swipe, the RED LED will blink slowly as the FIREFLY attempts to achieve the Target Background. Once the RED LED begins a fast blink then goes solid, the FIREFLY has achieved the target background. Additionally, the GREEN LED will flash slowly as the MOSAIC FIREFLY searches for the mesh. When communication has been established with a node already connected to the mesh (MOSAIC Gateway, Repeater or another MOSAIC FIREFLY) the GREEN LED will go solid. If both the RED LED and the GREEN LED blink slowly, then go off. The FIREFLY was unable to achieve the target background. Reprogramming should be attempted. - 55 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 MOSAIC FIREFLYs as Repeaters (Mesh Mode) When wired as a repeater, after a successful initial swipe, the RED LED will go solid and the GREEN LED will flash slowly as the MOSAIC FIREFLY searches for the mesh. When communication has been established with a node already connected to the mesh (MOSAIC Gateway, Repeater or another MOSAIC FIREFLY) the GREEN LED will go solid. MOSAIC FIREFLYs in Non-Mesh Mode After a successful magnet swipe, the green light will be solid for a very short period of time to confirm that the MOSAIC FIREFLY is initializing. There is no other GREEN LED behavior on MOSAIC FIREFLYs in non-mesh mode until programming is complete. When MOSAIC FIREFLYs in non-mesh mode are working correctly, the RED and GREED LEDs will flash in unison every 5 seconds. MOSIAC FIREFLYs on Encoded Meters (Non-Mesh Mode) After a successful initial swipe, the RED LED will flash slowly until it detects the encoder. If the MOSAIC FIREFLY successfully connects to the encoder, the RED LED will go solid. If the RED LED flashes quickly, the MOSAIC FIREFLY has detected its connection to a meter, but has not received an acknowledgement that verifies it is connected to a supported encoder. In this scenario, the wires may not be connected correctly or the encoder may not be supported in the current MOSAIC FIREFLY firmware. If the RED LED flashes slowly, the MOSAIC FIREFLY is searching for an acknowledgement from a meter, but has not received any. The MOSAIC FIREFLY will continue to wait for an acknowledgement, but will eventually go into ship mode if none is received. MOSAIC FIREFLYs on Pulse Meters (Non-Mesh Mode) After a successful initial swipe, the RED LED will blink slowly until it detects a connection with a pulse meter. NOTE: this happens very quickly. Once the MOSAIC FIREFLY detects the connection to a pulse meter, the RED LED blinks quickly until 5 meter pulses are detected. Once 5 pulses are detected, the RED LED will go solid. If the MOSAIC FRIEFLY is not wired correctly, the RED LED will continue to blink slowly, or the MOSAIC FIREFLY could go back into ship mode (meaning the RED LED will go off after the magnet swipe). MOSAIC FIREFLYs (D411X only) Connected to Remote Shutoff Valves (NonMesh Mode) The Remote Shutoff Valve (RSV) controls a water valve remotely. The RSV is connected to a FIREFLY in non-mesh mode. The ROADRUNNER communicates to the FIREFLY to control the RSV. The ROADRUNNER is able to control the RSV with or without a route loaded. There are 3 functions that can be performed on a RSV; Open RSV, Close RSV, and get current status of RSV (Open or Closed). - 56 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD.

Set Phy Fram X. Exit When requesting the current valve state, the software sends a message to the FIREFLY. The FIREFLY (firmware versions 1.5.2 and above) will respond with 0 for closed, 1 for open, 2 for changing, and 3 for indeterminate. The software interprets this response and appropriately displays a message on the status screen. Also, it should be noted that when the software initially displays the selection menu after the user enters the FIREFLY serial number (or meter number), it attempts to connect to the FIREFLY. It displays the message "Connecting to device..." at the top of the screen. Once it connects to the FIREFLY, the message changes to 'CONNECTED..." and it then displays the current state of the valve directly underneath the connection status message. The valve state displayed will be one of the following: • [OPENED] • [CLOSED] • [CHANGING] • [INDETERMINATE] • [UNKNOWN] - 85 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 The state of '[UNKNOWN] is displayed if the software is unable to retrieve the valve state from the FIREFLY. Also, chances are the status ‘[CHANGING]’ will never be displayed on the screen with the 1.5.2 release and subsequent releases since the FIREFLY does not respond to commands when the state of the valve is changing. The following screen shot is an example of initially displaying the selection menu screen: The following screen shot is an example of the selection menu after the software has connected to the specified FIREFLY: The current status of the RSV is displayed on the screen. When the user selects option 3 to get the current status, the software displays the current status and also reads and interprets the hardware alarms flags. The following screen shot is an example: - 86 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 The alarm conditions that can be detected for the RSV are: • Failed • Stuck • Low Battery • Tamper When the ‘Failed’ flag is reported, the software will display ‘Stuck’ since the valve is stuck in the wrong position. It is possible that the FIREFLY can report one or more of these conditions. In the cases where more than one condition is reported, commas will separate the conditions. Once the FIREFLY reports a stuck valve, in order for that condition to be cleared, the valve must successfully be cycled between opened, closed, and then opened again before it will clear the stuck status. - 87 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD.

System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 FAQ’s Can I use all three MOSAIC Gateway backhaul types in a single installation? Yes. Will I see a difference as far as data collection between the three MOSAIC Gateway backhaul configurations? No, you will not see a difference. Why would I need to use GPRS in an installation? GPRS works well in areas where other types of backhaul coverage are not available. Is the Wi-Fi product 802.11 compliant? Yes, our Wi-Fi product is 802.11B compliant. How many MOSAIC FIREFLYs can mesh together? Typically 1-24 MOSAIC FIREFLYs can communicate directly with each other. The minimum number of MOSAIC FIREFLY connections needed to continue the mesh is 1. The total number of MOSAIC FIREFLYs per MOSAIC Gateway should not exceed 1,500. What is the output power of a MOSAIC FIREFLY? Transmissions are rated at 250mW. What is the range of a MOSAIC FIREFLY? Above ground = approximately ¾ mile (line of sight). Pit mounted (through lid) = 600’ – 1000’ (depending on lid material). Many variables affect range, including topography, meter lid material and height of the MOSAIC Gateway. Are the new MOSAIC FIREFLYs compatible with previous legacy FIREFLYs? No, the transmission frequencies and messages scheme are different; thus a new radio is needed for handheld, mobile and mesh readings. Do the MOSAIC FIREFLYs read via the ROADRUNNER MOBILE product? Yes, a mobile reading mode is available with the same hardware used for Mesh reading. Will I need different MOSAIC FIREFLYS for Mesh and Mobile functionality? No, the same hardware used for mobile mode will work with both. How do I program an MOSAIC FIREFLY? MOSAIC FIREFLYs used on encoded water meters are automatically set-up. MOSAIC FIREFLYs for other meters are programmed via 2-way radio communications from a handheld programmer. New schedules, profile requests and firmware are also loaded via the Mesh. What does your handheld programming tool look like? The handheld programmer is a Datamatic, LTD ROADRUNNER CX unit with a MOSAIC 2-way radio. - 94 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 What is the battery life for the MOSAIC FIREFLY? When run at a 20 minute mesh interval, 10 plus years. Is the battery pack replaceable? Yes, the battery pack can be replaced at Datamatic. What frequency does the MOSAIC product use? We use a Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) over the 902-928 MHz band. 50 separate frequencies are utilized. Do you use a licensed frequency? The radio frequency that Datamatic, LTD uses operates on the ISM band, which is unlicensed. Does your product provide profiling? Yes the battery operated MOSAIC FIREFLYS have 240 days of hourly profile data on board. How do you get the profiling? Profile data is extracted in two ways, the MOSAIC FIREFLY can be programmed via the mesh to send an hourly profile packet along with its midnight read, or you can use the RR programmer to extract the profile data on demand (in development). Keep in mind that requesting profile data over the Mesh in large quantities will take time and network resources. How often do I get reads via the Mesh? Once daily is recommended, but this is user definable. Battery powered MOSAIC FIREFLYs send in daily readings by default, with the ability to send in up to hourly intervals on selected basis. A sampling of all meters can be configured to send in higher resolution profile data for statistical analysis, but can have a negative impact on the mesh network performance. Is the system 2-way? Yes, the MOSAIC FIREFLYS can send data and receive commands from the MOSAIC Gateway, which in turn communicates with the back office utility. MOSAIC FIREFLYs can also communicate 2-way with a handheld programmer. What can I do with the 2-way functionality? Update schedules, configurations, extract profile or other data, and more. Communications can be broadcast to an entire Mesh or directed to an individual MOSAIC FIREFLY. Does the MOSAIC system have repeaters? Yes, low cost repeaters are utilized to bridge the gap between distant MOSAIC FIREFLYs to reduce network congestion at unavoidable Mesh network bottlenecks or to reduce latency. How do the MOSAIC FIREFLY repeaters work? Each MOSAIC FIREFLY already acts as a repeater. Units wired and dedicated as a MOSAIC FIREFLY repeater utilize the same firmware but do not read a meter and therefore only repeat readings upstream that they receive. - 95 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD. System Training Manual Version 08.14.09 What is the MOSAIC FIREFLY repeater battery life? It works similar to that of a MOSAIC FIREFLY. Do you support cellular backhaul from the MOSAIC Gateway? Yes, via GPRS only at this time. Do you support Wi-Fi backhaul at the MOSAIC Gateway? Yes, 802.11 b. - 96 - Confidential Datamatic, Ltd. 2009 Datamatic, LTD.
