Installation and User Guide 98-1095 Rev AA 92Backhaul ConfigurationSIM Card Installation for the C6420 CollectorA subscriber identification module (SIM) is a smart card that securely stores the service-subscriber key (IMSI) used to identify a subscriber on mobile telephony devices (such as mobile phones, computers and C6400-Series Collectors).Contact your local cellular carrier to obtain an Industrial Grade SIM card for each C6420 Collector to be installed. NOTE: Industrial grade SIM cards that support a temperature range of at least -40 to 85C are required for C6400-Series Collector installations.UWARNING: Do not attempt to open a C6420 Collector and install a SIM card in the field. The C6420 Collector requires SIM card installation in a meter shop environment by qualified personnel.ESD PrecautionsACAUTION: These parts are static sensitive. Prior to handling, put on a Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) wrist strap and attach it to ground.Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the release of stored static electricity that can damage electrical circuitry. Static electricity is often stored in your body, and discharged when you come in contact with an object with a different potential. The ESD wrist strap safely channels this electricity from your body to a proper ground.Use an ESD wrist strap whenever you open a C6400-Series Collector, particularly when you will be handling SIM cards. In order to work properly, the wrist strap must make good contact at both ends (with your skin at one end, and with the ground at the other).UWARNING: The wrist strap is intended for static control only. It will not reduce or increase your risk of receiving an electric shock from electrical equipment. Follow the same precautions you would use without a wrist strap.

Installation and User Guide 98-1095 Rev AA 273C6400-Series Collector InstallationPre-Installation OverviewProper planning and thorough preparation are critical to successful C6400-Series Collector installation. This chapter outlines basic requirements for the pre-installation phase of the C6400-Series Collector deployment process.Safety OverviewPrior 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. You must provide safety training when:1. an existing installer assumes new duties for which they have not previously received training.2. new processes and methodologies representing new risks are introduced into the installation environment.3. previously unidentified risks are reported.The 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 understand that their supervisor’s responsibility does not relieve them from their individual responsibility to perform the work safely and to follow all safety rules and procedures applicable to their work.Pre-Installation ChecklistBe prepared before you go on site.

The PING is a very small command, it will often times succeed, where a larger command may not.•The C6400-Series Collector will respond to this message by sending it back to the sender immediately.Clear Collector QueuesThis command will cause the C6400-Series Collector to purge both of the collector queues. This may be recommended in the event of an extended provider outage.Collector NTP Time SyncThis command causes the C6400-Series Collector to initiate a time synchronization with the NTP server.Reset Collector PortThis command closes and re-opens the connection to the given port. In some cases this can recover a connection with a radio that has become unresponsive.Reboot Collector SystemThe Reboot Collector system command will cause the Collector processor to reboot. This is a full reboot of the operation system, and thus will take 2 or 3 minutes following issue of the command before communication with the Collector is re-established.Collector Test CC URLThis command allows the user to specify a Command Center location for the collector to test its connection. The form of the location should be in the form of an IP address or domain name preceded by http://.Collector Test NTP ServerThis command allows the user to specify the remote server that could be used as the C6400-Series Collector’s NTP server.

This action may be needed after performing maintenance on the C6400-Series Collector. After clicking the Restore button, ETM verifies the current C6400-Series Collector radios against the ones in the saved file. If the radios are different, then ETM displays a warning dialog.Saved information includes the original C6400-Series Collector’s unique identity on the RF mesh (the WAN address) and its unique identity on the Internet (the static IP address). These two identities must be unique.In the warning dialog, ETM asks the user whether the C6400-Series Collector is a replacement for the old collector. If the response is No, then ETM does not change these two identities as it copies the data out of the saved file. You can use saved data for one C6400-Series Collector to match up all other C6400-Series Collector without creating conflicts with these two identities.Field Description
Landis+Gyr Chapter 5 - Using Endpoint Testing ManagerInstallation and User Guide 98-1095 Rev AA 55Collector Tab - Identification sub-tabFigure 5 - 1. Collector Tab - Identification sub-tabIdentification sub-tabMAC AddressA Media Access Control Address is a unique identifier assigned to the connected C6400-Series Collector by the manufacturer for identification. It may also be known as a hardware address or physical address. IP Address Displays the IP Address (unique Internet identity) of the connected C6400-Series Collector.Network ID Displays the Network ID of the C6400-Series Collector.Door State A sensor in the collector door recognizes the door as open or closed. If no cable connects the sensor to the main board, this condition is identified.Port1 - Port 4 The down-arrow provides a reboot option for the C6400-Series Collector radio associated with the numbered port.Application Statistics Application RestartsThe C6400-Series Collector tracks the number of times that it has started. This includes both reboot operations, power events that exceed the life of the battery, application upgrades, or commands from a remote host to restart. This value *is* written to compact flash, so the count grows over time. Running TimeThe C6400-Series Collector tracks how much time has passed since it was started. This is tracked independently from the time-of-day clock. So, for example, if the C6400-Series Collector receives a command to bump its clock forward by one hour, the “up time” computation will not change.Modem SettingsModem Type The type of modem inserted specific to a particular modem manufacturer. At this time this is either None, MultiTechEDGE (GSM), or MultiTechEVDO (CDMA).Revision The software revision of the modem.Manufacturer The manufacturer of the modem or modem chipset.ICC ID The serial number of the SIM card if one is inserted.Model The model number of the modem.IMSI For a GSM modem, the International Mobile Subscriber Identity, which uniquely associates the modem account with the network.

Collector Tab - Basic Configuration sub-tabSerial Number The electronic serial number of the modem. For GSM this is IMEI. For CDMA this is either ESN or MEID.Status The status of the modem's data connection plus the result of the dial attempt to the network.Provider An attempt to determine which carrier the modem is associated with. If "Unknown" we are unable to determine this.Activate <button> Used to activate a Verizon CDMA modem only.NAM If the data connection is not active we may attempt to read the data from a CDMA modem's NAM. This is useful for debug.Settings <button> Access modem specific settings to activate the data connection on the network.Identification sub-tabBasic Configuration sub-tabTime KeeperETM always allows you to turn off the Time Keeper bit, but it only allows you to turn it on in specific cases:1) The C6400-Series Collector is already designated as a Time Keeper.2) A “Restore All” file has the Time Keeper bit set, and ETM detects that it is talking to the same C6400-Series Collector (ETM knows this by comparing the ID numbers of the radios in the C6400-Series Collector against the ID numbers stored).This case allows a user to read and save the configuration information from an existing C6400-Series Collector, swap compact flash cards in the C6400-Series Collector, and then restore the configuration to the new card.Auto RegistrationAlso called Auto-registration, this user specified parameter identifies the C6400-Series Collector so that data traffic is properly routed when endpoints register in the network.Local Radios are routersIndicates whether this neighbor can pass packets along the mesh network if that packet is not directly destined for it.For example, if radio A attempts to send a packet to radio C. Radio A cannot communicate directly with radio C. If radio A can communicate directly with radio B, and radio B is a router, then radio A can send the packet to radio B. Radio B forwards the packet to radio C. Most radios on the network are routers.

An incorrect URL can corrupt C6400-Series Collector main board configuration. WSUS GroupWSUS enables targeting updates to specific groups of C6400-Series Collector, ensuring that they receive the right updates at the most convenient times on a regular basis.Internet SettingsDynamic IP (DHCP) Internet Protocol - refers to the IP address of the connected C6400-Series Collector, and specifies routing for data communications.Static IP An IP address that is hard coded into the collector. Subnet MaskThe process of subnetting is the division of a network into groups that have the identical common component of their IP address designated as their routing prefix. The subnet mask is the network address plus the bits reserved for identifying the subnetwork. Default GatewayThe node on the network that the network software uses when an IP address does not match any other routes in the routing table; provides an entry point and an exit point in a network.DNS Address(es) Domain Name System. This allows the collector to look up an IP address by name rather than needing to know the exact numerical address.Primary A more frequently used DNS Address.Secondary An alternative DNS Address used in the event the primary DNS is unreachable.Basic Configuration sub-tab

It is up to the user to set this configuration, according to local practice.Selections for occurrences on this screen impact the Client Routing screen. Events map to priority, Alerts map to push. Disable directs the collector to ignore a so-designated occurrence.Client Routing sub-tabTCP Listening Ports Identifies, and allows the user to select access to, the TCP ports for each radio that the collector is connected to.Collector-initiatedThese are connections the collector attempts to initiate. For example, in Command Center applications the collector is programmed with the list of addresses of Command Center instances it needs to contact.Events/Alerts sub-tab: Specific radio and network occurrences may require programmed action. This will vary according to local practice. Some incidents will require no action, while others will be logged as they occur. Certain events necessitate special notification. For the events listed below, ETM can be configured for varied response. “Disable” designates no response to the event, while “Event” and “Alert” choices send messages to the host. “Event” carries a different “command byte” than “Alert” so that the host can differentiate between the two. An “Alert” will be sent with a different priority. Neither “Event” or “Alert” actions log locally.

Improper Power TerminationUWARNING: If using the 19-2207 or 19-2286 cables, the end of the cable opposite the connector (the unterminated end) must be installed in a junction box, other suitable enclosure, or drip loops at both ends of the cable should be provided. Leaving the end of the cable exposed may allow water to migrate into the cable and into the C6400-Series Collector.See below for power cable installation procedures and details.Junction/Disconnect Box InstallationWhen existing 19-2207 or 19-2286 cables are used, they must be terminated inside a junction or disconnect box. The inner wires cannot be exposed until after the cable enters the enclosure. Once inside the box, connect the power leads to wires going to the mains per local practice. Connections to the mains must use UV-stable wiring. As long as the wire is UV-stable and rated for outdoor use, the wire model and manufacturer may be selected by the programs. Part number 18-1058 wire is acceptable and recommended.
Appendix B - Cable Installation Landis+Gyr66 98-1095 Rev AA Installation and User GuideIn published examples, collector cables are shown going through conduit. Conduit is not required for C6400-Series Collectors, but the entrance to the junction box should be through a clamp at the bottom of the junction box. Junction boxes do not have a part number and are available through local vendors. As always, electrical connections need to meet the requirements of the local utility and local ordinances. The following diagram shows an installation using a junction box with a C6400-Series Collector. Figure B - 2. Suggested Power Termination If the 19-2207 or 19-2286 cables are used, then the cable can go directly to the mains, provided drip loops are made at the point of contact with the mains and at the C6400-Series Collector. The drip loop at the point of attachment to the mains should rise above the level of the point of attachment.
