Landis+Gyr Data SheetData Sheet 98-1083 Rev AA 5RF InterferenceThis equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the meter off, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: 1. Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.3. Consult Landis+Gyr or an experienced radio/TC technician for help.Required SoftwareTo work with the endpoint, you need one of the following software tools:•Command Center version 5.5 or later.•RadioShop version XX or later•Endpoint Testing Manager version XX or laterAbout the LAN IDThe LAN ID is a unique identifier for each endpoint.

ICC ID: 5931A- HUNTGS10122Features and FunctionsUsing the GE High Speed kV2c Meter with the Gridstream RF kV2c Enhanced endpoint, you can:•Integrate the endpoint into all forms, classes and voltages of the GE kV2c meter.•Communicate via serial connection between the endpoint and the meter through the meter's provided interface.•Support all levels of meter passwords.•Download radio firmware.AMR InterfaceThe integrated connection contains:•Three-wire, bi-directional serial interface•Baud rate is 9600, 8 bits, 1 stop bit, no hardware hand-shaking.•Power fail indication signal from the meter that tells the endpoint to disconnect from drawing power from the meter.•DC power line which supplies power to the module from the meter.RegistrationEndpoint firmware version XXX or later and module Device Control Word (DCW) XXX or later is required for auto-registration. After the meter/endpoint is installed in the field it will automatically register with the Head End System. No special tools are needed during installation as the normal Utility meter swap process can be utilized. The meter automatically sends in the registration information containing items on how the meter/endpoint is configured so the host can properly interpret the incoming data. Some of the items contained in this are as follows:•Default Gridstream RF Collector destination•Reporting interval for Register Data•Reporting interval for Interval Data•Meter's AMR-level security password•Time Synchronization parameters•GMT offset•Periodic Register Data reporting•Periodic LP Data reporting
Landis+Gyr Data SheetData Sheet 98-1083 Rev AA 7•Meter configuration informationOnce this information has been sent the meter/endpoint starts collecting and sending based on the default configuration loaded during manufacturing.Retrieving DataThe endpoint performs data retrieval from the meter on request (ORR) or autonomously (periodically reported). Availability of the following features depends on meter configuration. On Request Reads (ORR) available with this endpoint are:•Register Data (Standard Table 23) which includes consumption, demand and TOU values.•Load Profile or Interval Data (Standard Table 64).•Revenue Integrity Services which includes instantaneous measurements related to line voltage, current and phase angle.Availability of the following features depends on meter configuration. Options for periodic reported data with this module include:•Register Data & Status Flags (Standard Tables 23 & 3) which includes consumption, demand, TOU values and meter status.•Load Profile or Interval Data & Status Flags (Standard Tables 64 & 3) which includes interval data and meter status.Demand ResetWhen Command Center Host delivers a Demand Reset command, the communication module passes the command to the meter, which performs the Demand Reset on the meter. The meter/endpoint then passes the previous demand data captured by the meter (Standard Table 25) to the Host for processing.Time SynchronizationTime syncronization is the process of keeping the meter time synchronized with the Gridstream RF network time within a configurable limit. The communication module automatically keeps its time synchronized with the Gridstream RF network via periodic background process. The communication module reads the meter date/clock table (Standard Table 52) periodically, determined by its configuration. If the time drift between the meter and communication module exceeds the configured threshold, it sends a time synchronization alert message to the Host. The Host schedules a time change event for the meter and sends it to the communication module. The time of the change is determined such that the meter’s data integrity is maintained. At the scheduled time, the communication module executes the standard procedure to change date/time on the meter.Power Outage/RestorationWhen an outage occurs, the meter uses an early power failure signal to alert the communication module to disconnect from the meter's power immediately. The communication module saves critical module data to non-volatile memory and creates and sends a power outage message. This message includes the following information:
Data Sheet Landis+Gyr8 98-1083 Rev AA Data Sheet•LAN ID•Outage time•Reboot count.The endpoint sends the message, then assists with routing other packets until the back-up energy source can no longer keep the radio alive. The time that this energy source is available varies with several factors, including amount of data packets being routed, environmental conditions and age of meter/endpoint. Generally, a hold-up time of ~45 seconds is typical. At restoration, the communication module first acquires network connectivity. With network communications restored, the endpoint sends a power restoration message that includes details such as: •LAN ID•Outage time•Restoration time•Reboot count.The communications module stores a history of up to the last five power outage and restoration event pairs. The Host can request this data.Supporting PasswordsThe meter/endpoint supports passwords provided by the utility. See publication 98-1055 Gridstream 2-way Endpoint Testing Manager User Guide for information regarding loading password into module.Downloading Firmware Enable meter firmware remotely via RadioShop. The module can remotely initiate a self-restart with communications enabled, if the downloaded firmware causes a catastrophic functional failure. Once the endpoint completely receives the new code, it operates with the new code.Encrypting DataThe Gridstream RF Network currently supports use of one encryption key per network. If you enable the GE High Speed kV2c with encryption, the host must have a matching encryption key.
