To program the 100G Datalogging commercial gas endpoint
1. Program the index drive rate into the commercial endpoint using the endpoint programming device. For
all programming and "Check Endpoint" operations, hold the handheld programmer as close to vertical as
possible. For best success, keep the handheld programmer within 6 feet of the target endpoint. Verify you
have the correct programming mode (Fixed Network Mode, Mobile/Handheld Mode, or Hard to Read
Mobile/Handheld Mode) for your application. Programming parameters are based on the configuration file
loaded into the endpoint programming device.
During programming, the 100G Datalogging commercial gas endpoint is set to the nearest 100 cubic feet;
the last two digits (tens and units) are programmed as zeros (0). After programming is complete, the
endpoint assembly will read to the nearest cubic foot.
2. Slowly turn the endpoint's drive wriggler two turns in the direction shown on the index drive rate. This
verifies the endpoint is counting properly.
Caution Do not turn the drive wriggler faster than one turn per second.
3. Read or Check the 100G Datalogging commercial gas endpoint using the endpoint programming device.
If the read result is higher than the number programmed in Step 1, the 100G Datalogging commercial
gas endpoint is counting correctly.
If the read result is not higher than the number programmed in Step 1, replace the 100G Datalogging
commercial gas endpoint.

To Program the 100G Datalogging commercial gas endpoint
1. Program the meter drive rate into the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint using the endpoint
programming device. For all programming and "Check Endpoint" operations, hold the handheld
programmer as close to vertical as possible. For best success, keep the handheld programmer within 6 feet
of the target endpoint. Verify you have the correct programming mode (Fixed Network Mode,
Mobile/Handheld Mode, or Hard to Read Mobile/Handheld Mode) for your application. Programming
parameters are based on the configuration file loaded into the endpoint programming device.
During programming, the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint is set to the nearest 100 cubic
feet; the last two digits (tens and units) are programmed as zeros (0). After programming is complete, the
endpoint assembly will read to the nearest cubic foot.
2. Slowly turn the endpoint's drive wriggler two turns in the direction shown on the index drive rate. This
verifies the endpoint is counting properly after assembly.
Caution Do not turn the drive wriggler faster than one turn per second.
3. Read or Check the 100G Datalogging Commercial Gas Endpoint using the endpoint programming
device.
If the read result is higher than the number programmed in Step 1, the 100G Datalogging Commercial
Gas Endpoint is counting correctly.
If the read result is not higher than the number programmed in Step 1, replace the 100G Datalogging
Commercial Gas Endpoint.

CHAPTER 1
100G Datalogging Gas Endpoint
Itron 100G Datalogging gas endpoints are radio-frequency (RF) devices designed to transmit meter data to an
RF meter reading device within transmission distance of the endpoint. 100G Datalogging gas endpoints have
the same increased output power as the first generation 100G gas endpoints for greater RF transmission
distance. The 100G direct-mount endpoint reads and transmits a Standard Consumption Message (SCM) with
magnetic-tamper and tilt-tamper data. The Itron 100G Datalogging gas endpoint adds functionality by storing
up to 40 days of hourly data.
This installation guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the 100G gas endpoint and the 100G
Datalogging gas endpoint on a wide variety of meters. This installation guide refers to both 100G endpoint
versions as the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint. Mechanical installation procedures are identical for both
modules. 100G Datalogging gas endpoint compatible meters are listed in the Meter Compatibility List.
Transmission Modes
The 100G Datalogging gas endpoint can be set to transmit in Fixed Network, Mobile and Handheld, or Hard
to Read Mobile and Handheld Mode.
Fixed Network Mode The 100G Datalogging gas endpoint transmits a high-powered RF message every
60 seconds. Output power in this mode is 250 milliwatts or +24 dBm; expected battery life is 20 years.
Mobile and Handheld Mode The 100G Datalogging gas endpoint transmits a medium-powered RF
message every 15 seconds. Output power in this mode is 10 milliwatts or +10dBm; expected battery life is
20 years.
(Optional) Hard to Read Mobile and Handheld Mode The 100G Datalogging gas endpoint transmits a
high-powered RF message every 30 seconds. Output power in this mode is 250 milliwatts or +24dBm;
expected battery life decreases to 15 years in this mode. The Hard to Read Mobile and Handheld Mode
should only be used for exceptionally hard-to-read applications (such as meters installed on roof tops or in
sub-basements).
An FCC license is not required to read 100G Datalogging gas endpoint.

Meter Compatibility List
This table lists meters compatible with the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint. Due to continuous research,
product improvements, and enhancements, Itron reserves the right to change this list without notice.
Note On rare occasions the location of endpoint-to-meter mounting holes on older
diaphragm gas meters might not match up with the mounting holes on the 100G
Datalogging gas endpoint. This can prevent the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint from
properly mounting to the meter.

CHAPTER 2
Elster American Meter Installation
This chapter provides the instructions to install the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint on an Elster American
Meter.
Note Properly dispose all unused screws, old index covers, gaskets, tamper seals, and other
leftover materials. Do not leave materials on customer premises.
To remove the index from the meter
1. Remove the four index cover screws and the index cover from the Elster American meter. Alternate screw
removal following the numbered pattern in the photo.
2. Examine the mounting screws. If they are 5/8" long and not corroded, keep them to re-attach the 100G
Datalogging gas endpoint assembly. If the screws are not the correct length or if the screws are corroded,
discard.
Note You may use the removed index cover as a temporary storage container for
screws. Properly dispose all unused screws, old index covers, gaskets, tamper seals, and
other leftover materials. Do not leave materials on customer premises.

3. Unscrew one index mounting screw completely. Hold one hand under the index to catch the screw. While
removing the other mounting screw, pull the index away from the meter to keep the index backplate
against the back of the screw. Remove the screw completely after the index is free of the meter.
Set the index aside where it will not be damaged or fill with dirt, rain or snow. The index will be mounted
to the endpoint later in this procedure. Verify the index mounting screws are 3/16" long and not corroded.
If the screws are the correct length and not corroded, retain for later use. If the original screws were
discarded, use the correct replacement screws (see Installation Prerequisites on page 7.)
4. Remove the old gasket, gasket residue and dirt from the meter (if applicable). The meter face must be free
of gasket residue before you install the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint.

If your index has mounting screw slots, skip steps 3 and 4. If your index has mounting screw holes,
perform steps 3 and 4, and skip steps 5 and 6.
3. Using the original index mounting screw or a replacement screw, if necessary, place one 8 - 32 3/16"
screw into the index's right-hand mounting screw hole.
4. Attach the screw to the endpoint housing's right-index mounting post just enough to hold the screw and
the right end of the index in place.
5. Screw one 8 - 32 x 3/16" screw into the right index mounting post one or two turns. Do not tighten the
screw.
6. Place the right index mounting screw slot under the screw head. Do not tighten the screw.
7. Slide the index drive post into the endpoint wriggler. Verify positive engagement.
Caution If the index wriggler has a drive slot, place the endpoint wriggler's drive post into
the index drive slot. Failure to mate the endpoint wriggler with the index drive post (or slot)
can cause binding and lead to poor registration or meter failure.

Caution The 100G Datalogging gas endpoint must be programmed before use.
Follow the steps in this section to properly program the endpoint.
The endpoint is programmed based on the meter's drive rate. Take note of the index drive rate shown on a
lower left dial on the index. The endpoint is programmed based on the drive rate. Elster American meter index
drive rates are either 1-cubic foot, 2-cubic feet or 0.05 cubic meters (not shown below).

Elster American Meter Installation
To program the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint
1. Program the meter drive rate into the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint using the endpoint programming
device. For all programming and "Check Endpoint" operations, hold the handheld programmer as close to
vertical as possible. For best success, keep the handheld programmer within 6 feet of the target endpoint.
Verify you have the correct programming mode (Fixed Network Mode, Mobile/Handheld Mode, or Hard
to Read Mobile/Handheld Mode) for your application. Programming parameters are based on the
configuration file loaded into the endpoint programming device.
During programming, the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint is set to the nearest 100 cubic feet; the last two
digits (tens and units) are programmed as zeros (0). After programming is complete, the endpoint
assembly will read to the nearest cubic foot.
2. Slowly turn the endpoint's drive wriggler two turns in the direction shown on the index drive rate. This
verifies the endpoint is counting properly after assembly.
Caution Do not turn the drive wriggler faster than one turn per second.
3. Read or Check the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint using the endpoint programming device.
If the read result is higher than the number programmed in Step 1, the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint
is counting correctly.
If the read result is not higher than the number programmed in Step 1, replace the 100G Datalogging
gas endpoint.
Attaching the 100G Datalogging Gas Endpoint Assembly to the
Meter
After programming the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint, attach the endpoint assembly to the Elster American
Meter.
Warning For 5B Meters only: If the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint will be installed
on a 5B-225 aluminum meter, cut 1/16" off each endpoint wriggler post to prevent
the wriggler from rubbing on the face of the nut holding the meter drive dog in place.

Elster American Meter Installation
To attach the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint to the meter
1. Align the endpoint wriggler to connect with the drive post (or slot) of the meter.
For one-foot meters: Align the endpoint assembly wriggler perpendicular to the meter drive post.
For two-foot meters: Align the endpoint assembly wriggler perpendicular to the meter drive slot. The
pin on the endpoint wriggler may be installed inside or outside the meter drive slot. For easy assembly,
Itron recommends installing the pin on the 100G Datalogging gas endpoint wriggler outside the meter
drive slot.
2. Carefully align the endpoint's four screw holes with the holes on the meter. Attach using the original
mounting screws if they are the correct size and are not corroded (1/4 - 20 x 5/8" screws.) If the original
screws were discarded, use the correct replacement screws (see Installation Prerequisites on page 7).
Tighten in an alternating, diagonal pattern as shown in the photo:
Insert first screw and tighten 1/4 to 1/2 turn after the screw contacts the meter connection.
Insert the second screw and tighten 1/4 to 1/2 turn after contact with the meter connection.
Insert the third screw and tighten 1/4 to 1/2 turn after contact with the meter connection.
Insert the last screw and tighten 1/4 to 1/2 turn after contact with the meter connection.
Return to the first screw and tighten. Continue with the second, third and last screws until all screws are
tight. Use equal screw tension to tighten each screw.
Note Meter manufacturers: torque the mounting screws 15 to 20 inch-pounds.
