All rights reserved. 1-Way Repeater Setup 97-1077 rev AB Page 2 of 11 Introduction Overview The Cellnet 1 way repeater (BLTr) is intended to be a low cost way to extend the coverage of an MCC in rural (low customer density) areas. Cellnet’s current 1-way technology utilizes the BLT radio for communication over the wireless LAN. The Cellnet 1-way Repeater is designed to reduce the network costs associated with 1-way electric, water, and/or gas meter deployments for low density areas. The 1-Way Repeater will utilize the latest firmware enhancements available for the BLT repeater radio, designed to increase the performance of the existing BLT radio. The BLT repeater is a project aimed at stretching the RF coverage capability of the Cellnet network at a cost that is not prohibitive to the company or the customer. Increased coverage for more rural areas is planned to be obtained by using 1Way Repeater to extend the LAN coverage of each MCC. The present RF range of a MCC is approximately 0.4 miles in radius that equates to roughly 0.5 square miles of area. By using 1-Way Repeater for LAN extension, the area of coverage is expected to be extended by an order of magnitude to 5 square miles. In other words using an average of 10 1-Way Repeaters reporting to each MCC, we should be able to increase the radius of coverage to approximately 5 square miles. The 1 way repeater forwards Cellnet 1-way packets received on 917.58 Mhz / Spread Channel #1 at 911.58 Mhz / spread channel #2. The MCC is reconfigured to receive packets on 911.58 Mhz and spread channel #2. Repeaters are installed around the MCC to extend its coverage area. The 1-way repeater should not require device specific configuration other than configuring it with a unique LAN address if heart beat packets are required to monitor its proper operation. The 1-Way Repeater is built using a standard BLT transceiver and modifying it with SW so that it operates as described in this document. These modifications also result in a minor reduction in output power to a nominal 25.5 dBm at 911.58 MHz from the nominal 27 dBm at 917.58 MHz of the standard BLT radio.

All rights reserved. Page 2 of 11 1-Way Repeater Setup 97-1077 rev AB Page 3 of 11 The 1-way packets transmitted by the BLTr are processed by the Frame manager and send to the BLTr agent. The BLTr agent receives the Admin packet from the device and stores the information pertaining to the heart beat packet. The BLTr agent sends out periodic ASAP messages with the contents of the heart beat packet. This is controlled by parameters in the EEPROM configuration where the default sending messages is turned ON. The BLTr agent logs a periodic message in the event log of the system controller.

A mounting kit is available that contains the mounting kit to install the radio and the RF cables to the antennas. This installation is similar to other Cellnet products. The repeater is attached to the streetlight arm and powered via the streetlight photocell adapter cable ordered with the repeater. No additional SW or configuration is required. Equipment Required • 45-1049: mounting kit that can be used with one way repeater. Antennas and antenna ground disk supplied with 1-Way Repeater • • • Recommended torque settings for ¼” HW: 45 in-lb Serial cable: None expected to be used in normal operation 103826-000: AC power cable if attached to photocell, other installations possible Note: Professional installation of the 1-Way Repeater is required. Low Density Deployment The 1-Way Repeater could be used to include a rural group of meters currently read by manual means. This allows network costs to be reduced.

The settings of the MCC processor board need to be changed. Changing the settings in the BLT radio alone will not result in permanent changes and the processor will change the BLT back to the original settings. Note that this MCC will only receive from 1-Way Repeaters because it will only receive at 911.58 MHz. In order to set up the MCC, follow the following instructions. Entries are shown in red.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate 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 equipment off and on, the use is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • • • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.” Warning: Changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by Cellnet could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
