Net metering allows the endpoint to report the net power flow of energy in both directions when power is generated locally at a cus-tomer’s site (wind, solar, etc.). Figure 1 - 3. Enabling Net MeteringDraft 10/7/2015
Endpoint Quick Start Guide Landis+Gyr6 98-2412 Rev AA Quick Start GuideTime of Use (Battery-free)Landis+Gyr offers the capability of the endpoint to remotely control up to four TOU schedules. The Meter requires Network Time to keep TOU. The endpoint keeps time once acquired from the Net-work. The meter must be enabled for TOU.ZigBee/Home Area Network (HAN) FunctionalityWith the Gridstream RF G5 FOCUS AXe module, Landis+Gyr has the ZigBee radio platform for Gridstream RF which gives a utility the ability to increase consumer awareness of energy consump-tion and encourage personal responsibility for curbing the energy load. ZigBee released a Smart Energy Profile (SEP) application in early 2008 and it is quickly becoming a standard for communi-cating between energy management devices as part of a home area network (HAN). The ZigBee radio is located on the Gridstream RF AXe module creating an Energy Service Interface (ESI) that manages the bi-directional communication with ZigBee radio-based devices such as in-home dis-plays, smart thermostats and direct load control devices. See the figure below for a demonstration of the communication flow between Command Center and the devices in the home. Figure 1 - 4. ZigBee CommunicationUsing Command Center, the utility sets up the HAN remotely via RF network via a provisioning process. The utility registers each device and a security handshake occurs to ensure protected and closed communication between the meter, endpoint and energy devices in the home.The utility sends downstream pricing information and text messages via Command Center (or 3rd party integrated application) to the module, which uses the ZigBee radio to push down the informa-tion to the devices. Because the solution is bi-directional, the devices are also pulling meter data and accurate time that is maintained at the endpoint. The Gridstream RF G5 FOCUS AXe module refreshes data from the meter every 30 seconds and makes it available to all the devices. The endpoint makes available kWh values (delivered only) up to five dial resolution and instantaneous kW up to 99.999 for display. It supports up to five provi-sioned devices and makes available five tiers for pricing events to align with the meter's number of rates.Text messaging is limited to 80 characters.NOTE: ZigBee radio devices are consumer products and should not be considered part of a manda-tory load control program, nor a replacement for viewing energy consumption with the same accu-racy found on the meter display. The utility will need to conduct some training of both internal Draft 10/7/2015
Landis+Gyr Endpoint Quick Start GuideQuick Start Guide 98-2412 Rev AA 7personnel and consumers of the capabilities and limitations of HAN technology.ZigBee radio devices will need to be programmed to respond correctly to each pricing event or Time of Use rate from the meter. An in-home display like the ecoMeter, for instance, will request energy and instantaneous demand data every 7 seconds. It will also request price, which will be provided as flat or Time of Use (TOU) depending on how the meter is programmed. When it sees the meter has changed to Rate B, for instance, it may respond by changing the back lighting to indicate to the con-sumer that the price of energy has increased. Gridstream RF Network IndicatorThis feature provides a ‘communications health’ view of a Gridstream RF enabled electric metering endpoint on the LCD display of the meter. This health check information can be utilized during field installation or troubleshooting activities to validate status of the Gridstream RF electric endpoint, and provide key inputs to any communications issues that may be encountered from time to time.The network indicator feature will display two key elements of communications health characteris-tics.•Communication Hardware Status: Information about AMI radio communications, HAN (ZigBee) radio communications, and the interactions between the two•RF Mesh Neighbor Status: Information about the number of RF mesh neighbors available for network communicationsFor more information on this feature, see “Appendix D. Gridstream RF Network Indicator” in Landis+Gyr RF Generation 5 (G5) Integrated FOCUS AXe Endpoint User Guide, publication num-ber 98-2411.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 criti-cal module data to non-volatile memory and creates and sends a power outage message. This mes-sage includes the following information:•LAN ID•Outage time•Reboot countThe communication module sends the message, then assists with routing other packets until the back-up energy source can no longer keep the radio alive.When power is restored, the communication module connects with the network. With network com-munications restored, the communication module sends a power restoration message that includes details such as: •LAN ID•Outage time•Restoration time•Reboot countDraft 10/7/2015
Endpoint Quick Start Guide Landis+Gyr8 98-2412 Rev AA Quick Start GuideThe communication module stores a history of up to the last five power outage and restoration event pairs in the event log. The Host can request this data.NOTE: The module is designed with a high temperature protection feature in which the firmware automatically starts draining the super capacitor responsible for outage notification at 65 degrees Celsius.Standards ComplianceThe Gridstream RF G5 FOCUS AXe module has Smart Utility Network (SUN) 802.15 4G ready hardware.Flash Memory OptionsThe standard hardware configuration for the Gridstream RF G5 FOCUS AXe modules has 4MB flash memory. An 8MB flash memory option is also available.Draft 10/7/2015

Landis+Gyr Endpoint Quick Start GuideQuick Start Guide 98-2412 Rev AA 11Cet équipement est conforme aux limites FCC d'exposition aux radiations définies pour un envi-ronnement non contrôlé. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé à une distance minimale de 29cm entre le radiateur et votre corps. Cet émetteur ne doit pas être co-implantés ou exploités en con-jonction avec une autre antenne ou émetteur.Industry CanadaThis device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful com-munication.Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélec-trique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Indus-trie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication sat-isfaisante.Draft 10/7/2015
