80W-i Endpoint Installation Guide
CHAPTER 1
80W-i Endpoint
The Itron 80W-i combines Itron Cyble and water endpoint technologies to create a powerful
AMR module. 80W-i endpoints are bubble-up meter transceivers operating in the 900 MHz
unlicensed radio frequency band. Utilizing an integral mounting design, the 80W-i is
attached directly to the Itron Flostar, Multimag, or Woltex water meter (with the three-tab
housing) using a single mounting screw. This streamlined mounting method eliminates wire
connections providing a trouble-free installation.
The 80W-i endpoint transmits a consumption message at two power levels giving utilities
the option to migrate from an Itron ChoiceConnect drive-by solution (standard power) to a
ChoiceConnect fixed network solution (high power) without changing the meter or
endpoint. When combined with the superior low flow metrology of Itron single jet meters,
80W-i endpoints deliver accurate consumption data over a wide range of flow rates.
Product Highlights
The 80W-i features:

A "no-wire" design

Multiple power output

Migration to Fixed Network without meter or endpoint replacement

Programmable dial resolution (down to 1/10th gallon)

Leak detection

Tamper detection

Reverse flow detection

Installing the 80W-i
The 80W-i can be installed and programmed (see Programming the 80W-i on page 7.)
before or after Itron meter installation. Verify the Flostar, Multimag, or Woltex meter
register housing is the three-tab design. Screws and tamper seals to attach the endpoints are
included with each 80W-i.

Chapter 2 Installing the 80W-i
Attaching the 80W-i Endpoint to an Itron Water Meter
Warning Field retrofit applications require a clean register. Use a damp towel to clean the
register cover and meter lens including the mounting tabs, screw plug, and lens covering
of the Cyble target.
1. Using a small, standard tip screwdriver, unscrew the hole-protector on the register
cover.
2. Align the register housing mounting tabs with the 80W-i slots and carefully slide the
endpoint onto the meter as shown. When correctly installed, the endpoint will lie flat
on the register surface.
A. Correctly mounted 80W-I
B. Incorrectly mounted 80W-i
Warning Carefully align the register housing mounting tabs and the 80W-i slots before
sliding the 80W-i into its mounted position. Use care when sliding the 80W-i into position
to ensure a snug fit (as shown). Verify the 80W-i fits securely over the register surface
without a gap. When attaching the 80W-i module in a pit box, confirm the endpoint is
properly mated by feeling under the endpoint with your fingertips to verify all three
mounting tabs are seated in the appropriate slots and there is not a gap between the
endpoint and register. After you have confirmed a snug fit between the endpoint and
register, secure the endpoint to the register housing with the supplied mounting screw.

3. Insert the torx mounting screw and hand tighten to a firm resistance. Do not overtighten.
Warning Do not use an electric screwdriver. A power tool could over-tighten
the screw and damage the register's plastic housing.
4. Insert a blue tamper seal into the matching location over the screw. Ensure the seal is
firmly seated around its perimeter.
Warning Applying the blue tamper seal places the endpoint into programming
mode for 15 minutes. If the seal is removed after programming, the endpoint
will sense the removal and advance the 'cut-cable' tamper value.

80W-i Endpoint Installation Guide
CHAPTER 3
Programming the 80W-i
Required Programming Hardware and Software
- Itron FC200SR loaded with Endpoint Link Software, version 5.3.1 or higher
- 80W-i Endpoint Configuration File loaded in the FC200SR Handheld. (The configuration
file is unique for each utility.)
The 80W-i activates for programming when the blue tamper seal is installed. Tamper seal
installation initializes a 15-minute programming period when the FC200SR is used to
program meter parameters from the Endpoint Configuration File, the beginning meter index
value, and desired resolution.
After the 15-minute programming period expires, the 80W-i enters a normal operating
mode unless Quiet Mode was enabled in the configuration file. Quiet Mode places the
endpoint in a hibernation state until consumption is detected. When consumption is
detected, the 80W-i will switch to its normal operating state. Re-programming the 80W-i
requires placement of the Itron pen magnet (MLD-0175-001) over the tamper seal for
approximately 4 seconds. Remove the pen magnet after the wait-time elapses.
To request an Endpoint Configuration File, contact support@itron.com. Within two weeks,
you will receive log-on information and download instructions for your new Endpoint
Configuration File from our secure Itron website.
If you need assistance loading the handheld with your Endpoint Configuration File, contact
Itron 80W-i Support at 1-800-635-8725.
The Endpoint Link or Endpoint Link Pro Programming Guide (V5.3 or later) can assist
users with Endpoint Link Software navigation or programming options for the 80W-i.
