Ces noncs sont dfinis ci-dessous. AVERTISSEMENT indique une situation potentiellement dangereuse qui, si elle n'tait pas vite, pourrait entraner la mort ou des blessures graves. MISE EN GARDE indique une situation qui, si elle n'tait pas vite, pourrait entraner des dommages l'quipement, des dommages au logiciel, des pertes de donnes ou des rsultats invalides. REMARQUE indique des informations supplmentaires importantes. Conformit FCC/IC Les noncs qui suivent portent sur le guide d'exposition aux RF et la procdure de calibration sur place. Les changements ou modifications non expressment approuvs par la partie responsable de la conformit pourraient annuler l'autorisation de l'utilisateur d'utiliser l'quipement. Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. Le prsent appareil est conforme l'exposition aux radiations FCC / ISED dfinies pour un environnement non contrl et rpond aux directives d'exposition de la frquence de la FCC radiofrquence (RF) et RSS102 de la frquence radio (RF) ISED rgles d'exposition. L'metteur ne doit pas tre colocalis ni fonctionner conjointement avec autre antenne ou autre metteur. Cet appareil numrique de classe B est conforme la norme canadienne NMB-003. Guide dexposition aux RF FCC/IC Les appareils RF faible puissance Aclara Technologies LLC ainsi que leurs antennes doivent tre monts de manire fixe sur des structures intrieures ou extrieures permanentes qui se trouvent au moins 20 cm des personnes pendant le fonctionnement normal. Dans le cadre de MTU Programmer, il peut tre utilis en main, sauf pour la face de la bobine, qui doit tre une distance dau moins 20 cm de tous les utilisateurs. Rev. 1.3 Page 6 of 10 February 19 COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL Wireless Field Programming Coil Aclara Technologies, LLC User Guide (DRAFT) Cet appareil n'est pas conu (et il n'a aucun branchement externe) pour tre utilis en association avec toute autre antenne ou tout transmetteur. Aucune autre instruction d'utilisation n'est requise pour assurer la conformit aux rgles d'exposition aux RF. Procdure de calibration sur place Les appareils RF faible puissance Aclara Technologies LLC ont t soumis des tests tendus et multi-tches et des procdures de calibration complexes en usine. Par consquent, ils ne requirent pas de calibration ni d'ajustement supplmentaire sur place. Les appareils RF faible puissance Aclara Technologies LLC sont expdis au client dans des botiers scells. Aucun ajustement ne peut donc tre effectu sur place sans briser le botier scell en usine.

The blue indicator will light. Wait until blue indicator starts blinking slowly and release the button. 1.2 Turn OFF the programmer In order to turn off the device, the user must press the button until blue indicator starts blinking fast. At this moment, button must be released. If user keeps pressing the button more than 3 seconds, the programmer will enter into PAIRING mode and blue and red indicators will start blinking. 1.3 Pairing In case the application shows an alert indicating to change to PAIRING mode, press the button until red and blue indicators start blinking (more than 3 seconds). Release and try to connect again to the programmer. Device remains on PAIRING state for 10 seconds until the application is connected to it. Rev. 1.3 Page 8 of 10 February 19 Wireless Field Programming Coil Aclara Technologies, LLC User Guide (DRAFT) COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL 1.4 Battery indications LOW BATTERY If the device is ON and detects low battery, it will turn on the red indicator while the blue one will continue blinking. In this situation, PAIRING will not be allowed. When the device is in OFF state with low battery it will not allow to be turned ON and will be shown by blinking the red indicator five (5) times. Programmer updates will be neither allowed. VERY LOW BATTERY When the device is in OFF state with low battery it will not allow to be turned ON and will be shown by blinking the red indicator five (5) times. Programmer updates will be neither allowed. In addition, if the device is in ON state and detects no battery, it will change automatically to OFF state. CHARGING Connecting USB cable will turn the programmer automatically to CHARGING state. The red indicator will light up. If device is in ON state and the user connects USB cable, the device will turn OFF and will start charging. In this state, the devices would disconnect any Bluetooth or coil transmission and it will remain sleep until USB cable is disconnected from the device, and the puck is powered again. CHARGED When the charging process is finished, the programmer will turn red indicator off and blue indicator on. 1.5 Functional summary Table 1 shows the user operations for controlling the programmer.

Rev. 1.3 Page 9 of 10 February 19 Wireless Field Programming Coil Aclara Technologies, LLC User Guide (DRAFT) COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL 2 MTU Programmer Setup The following section outline the general procedure for placing the programmer at the time of reading or writing one MTU. 1. Turn on the device as indicated at 1.1. 2. Find the programmer point on the MTU. 3. Slide the programming probe onto the side of the MTU, so that the circular face of the programmer is flush against the programmer point on the MTU. The programmer should be positioned as shown WARNING Do not place hand between the round face of the programmer and the MTU. RF Exposure is not compliant in that face.
