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 user 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.
SmartMeter Installation Manual Rev 0.2 ArKion Systems – Confidential Page 1 1. Introduction The ArKion SmartMeter is intended for indoor & outdoor use as an unattended automatic metering Infrastructure (AMI) & control device. The SmartMeter product consists of an ArKion AMI module fully integrated into a Landis+Gyr Focus solid state electric meter. The SmartMeter is fully self-contained with no user accessible controls. The SmartMeter interrogates the ANSI C.12 register set in Focus solid-state electric meters from Landis + Gyr. It’s main function is to obtain energy consumption, negative consumption, and voltage readings for billing, distribution monitoring, fraud detection, and conservation purposes. Meter reading interval is remotely settable. Information retrieved from the meters registers are temporarily stored within the Smart Meters solid-state memory. On a specified interval, the Smart Meter will automatically transmit this information to the ArKion AMI server via. other meters or CCOM using the Radio Frequency (RF) network. The ArKion AMI server analyzes and archives the readings. The Smart Meter uses SuperCapacitors to support transmission of power failure messages and to maintain the time of day clock. The Smart Meter does not use any internal batteries eliminating need for field service. The contents of this installation manual are intended for technically qualified personnel of energy distribution utilities who have been trained and are technically qualified in basic electrical principles, including safety procedures for installation of energy meters. The installer should refer to the latest edition of the Landis+Gyr “FOCUS kWh Solid-State Meter Technical Manual” for physical installation, wiring, and safety precautions. 2.
