1Installation Guide 98-1135 Rev AB 7Pre-InstallationBefore You BeginThis text contains the symbols which are explained below.NOTE: Notes provide important information about products and installation.ACAUTION: Cautions provide information that you must read to avoid making relatively moderate errors.UWARNING: Warnings provide special, must-read information. If you ignore a warning you may create a safety hazard, omit essential data, or make a critical error.Safety OverviewNOTE: Proper planning and thorough preparation are critical for successful installation. This chapter outlines basic requirements for the pre-installation phase.Prior to starting the installation process, you must develop and launch an installer safety training plan for initial, refresher, and ongoing safety training. Ensure that installers receive appropriate initial and refresher training to meet their specific safety-related responsibilities. Installers should be instructed in the following safety elements as well as any site-specific safety issues.•New duties for which the installer has not previously received training.•New processes and methodologies representing new risks that are introduced into theinstallation environment.•Situations where previously unidentified risks are reported.•Hazard Communication (Employee Right to Know)•Lifting•Safe driving•Use of hand tools•Confined spaceThe installation supervisory team assumes responsibility for ensuring that installers are properly trained, authorized, and continually qualified to perform their work. The team must also take responsibility for the safety of their installers and to assure safe work methodologies. Installers must

Chapter 2 - Index Cover Pulser Install and Operation Start Up Landis+Gyr28 98-1135 Rev AB Installation GuideStart the GPR Operation In Install ModeBy now, the GPR should be fully mounted without it's cover (Rockwell meter shown for reference): Figure 2 - 4. Mounted GPRThe GPR module, as received from the contract manufacturer, should have the correct Network LAN ID and CRC numbers already configured. The GPR, when installed for the first time, will start operation in Install Mode. Install Mode is a temporary operation mode during which the GPR initiates the first network synchronization, and performs auto-registration to Command Center. To be able to sync to a network the GPR must have the same CRC number as that of the Network. During auto-registration the GPR requests for operation and meter specific configurations from Command Center. When the new configuration data is obtained, the GPR reconfigures itself, reboots, and then changes operation to Normal Mode.To start the GPR in Install Mode follow the procedure below.1. Apply dielectric Grease Compound to the sensor cable connector and make the connection as described in the interface section above. See Appendix A, GPR Waterproofing for more information.2. Apply Di-Electric Grease Compound to the battery connector. See Appendix A, GPR Waterproofing for more information.3. Install the sensor cable connector before the battery connector to avoid creating false counts.4. Apply power to the module by making the battery connection.5. Remove and discard the foam between battery and PCBA.6. Observe the LED on the module for proper start up. Shortly after power is applied, the LED will flash once every 5 seconds for 60 seconds to indicate to the installer that the module is in Installation Mode and is operating normally. If an error is encountered, the LED will flash twice per second to indicate there is error and continue flashing until power is disconnected.7. If the module started operation correctly, mount the cover using the next 3 steps.8. Arrange the GPR Pulse Input and Battery Interface cables as shown in Figure 2 - 5. The cables must not interfere with or block the GPR antenna.

The installation information provided in this section is to help guide the user with installing a GPR module to an electronic pulserGPR Telemetry Specifications•The GPR can support two volume pulse inputs and one alarm input. The pulse inputs are organized into three channels referenced to the sensor PCB connector on the GPR circuit board:•By design the hardware counting channels are labeled A and B. In Command Center, channels 1 and 2 are used.•Channel A = Command Center channel 2•Channel B = Command Center channel 1•Channel A. Optional volume input.•Channel B. Primary volume input.•Alarm. Alarm input.•Both channel A and B can support Form-A or Form-C type pulsers.•The alarm channel can support Form-A or Form-B type pulsers.•Minimum ON/OFF input pulse width is 50 mSec / 50 mSec.•Nominal switch bias voltage is 3.0V.•Nominal switch bias current is 30 uA.NOTE: The billing or primary output on the pulser is to be connected to Channel B on the GPR.NOTE: It is the responsibility of the user to make sure the output pulse meets the minimum pulse ON/OFF time. This is usually a configurable parameter for electronic volume correctors.NOTE: When both channels, A and B, are connected and used as volume inputs in an installation, it is highly recommended that both channels are connected and configured for type Form-A at the pulser side as well as the GPR side. If Form-C is used in a dual volume input configuration, the battery life of the GPR is not guaranteed.NOTE: The GPR should not be connected to any output that has power. It is a good practice to measure the output of the pulser before installing to the GPR. Voltage above 6.0V can cause damage to the GPR and will violate the intrinsic safety rating.NOTE: If the battery is unplugged, do not connect the battery until the module is ready for operation to start.Table 7 - 1.

Landis+Gyr Chapter 7 - Electronic Pulser InstallationInstallation Guide 98-1135 Rev AB 97Start the GPR Operation In Install ModeBy now, the GPR should be fully mounted without it's cover.The GPR module, as received from the contract manufacturer, should have the correct Network LAN ID and CRC numbers already configured. The GPR, when installed for the first time, will start operation in Install Mode. Install Mode is a temporary operation mode during which the GPR initiates the first network synchronization, and performs auto-registration to Command Center. To be able to sync to a network the GPR must have the same CRC number as that of the Network. During auto-registration the GPR requests for operation and meter specific configurations from Command Center. When the new configuration data is obtained, the GPR reconfigures itself, reboots, and then changes operation to Normal Mode.Once the GPR is properly mounted and connected to the pulser, it is ready for operation to start. To start the GPR in Install Mode follow the procedure below.1. The sensor cable should be installed before the battery connection to avoid false counts at startup.2. Apply dielectric grease compound to the battery connector. See Appendix A, GPR Waterproofing for more information.3. Apply power to the module by making the battery connection.4. Remove the foam between the battery and the PCB and discard it.5. Observe the LED on the module for proper start up. Shortly after power is applied the LED will flash once every 5 seconds for 60 seconds to indicate to the installer that the module is in Installation Mode, and is operating normally. If an error is encountered, the LED will flash twice per second to indicate there is an error and continue flashing until power is disconnected.6. If the module started operation correctly, mount the cover as shown in the next 3 steps.7. Arrange the GPR Pulse Input and Battery Interface cables as shown in Figure 7 - 12.

Clean up debris from the retrofit and installation processes. If required by local practice, enter the appropriate information on a door hanger tag.5. At the end of the day, the installer returns to the Cross Dock for the check-in process. The installer should also turn in inventory of unused, defective, or broken gas Meter Modules. The installer is responsible for reconciling any discrepancies in changed data before the check-in process can be completed. Operation StartupThe M120 module, as received from the contract manufacturer, should have the correct Network LAN ID and CRC numbers already configured. The operating mode of the module, as received from the contract manufacturer, should be Deep Sleep or standby mode. Once the M120 is properly mounted and connected to the meter, it is ready for operation to start in Install Mode. Install Mode is a temporary operation mode during which the M120 initiates the first network synchronization, and performs auto-registration to Command Center. To be able to sync to a network the M120 must have the same CRC number as that of the Network. During auto-registration the M120 requests for operation and meter specific configurations from Command Center. When the new configuration data is obtained, the M120 reconfigures itself, reboots, and then changes operation to Normal Mode. To start a fresh M120 in Install Mode use one of the following methods.1. If the gas meter is active, meaning gas is flowing, the module will automatically switch to Install Mode after a preset wakeup_rotations number of dial wheel revolutions. The wakeup_rotations value is currently 25, and is subject to change. After the number of rotations is met, verify that the LED on the module is flashing every 5 seconds to indicate that it is in Install Mode.2. If the gas meter is inactive, meaning there is no gas flow, place a magnet by the module as shown in the picture below. Hold the magnet until the LED lights up. This can take more than 10 seconds. When the LED lights up, hold the magnet for 10 more seconds and then remove. Verify that the LED is now flashing every 5 seconds to indicate that it is in Install Mode.

Main Board Reed Switch LocationField Programming and Data CollectionField programming and data collection will be done with the Endpoint Testing Manager tool. Please refer to the Endpoint Testing Manager User Guide, publication 98-1055.Battery Change OutWhen the battery flag (R) is set, it could be due to:•A single end-point occurrence, where the end-point may require more current to operate. In this case, a battery in a single endpoint needs to be replaced.•Occurrence on several end-points, where a battery change out program needs to be implemented within the following year.•The flag being set during the coldest part of the day, where the battery may have less than 20% of energy left (2-4 years of service time remaining).•Occurrence more often even during the daylight hours. In this case, the battery has even less energy remaining (1-2 years of service time remaining).To Change Out The Battery 1. Hold a magnet on the magnetic reed switch (about 20 seconds) until the LED flashes one time. This indicates that the module has been put in sleep mode.
