(printed and barcoded). 4 98-1284 Rev AA Landis+Gyr Confidential Information Draft 12/7/2012 Landis+Gyr LAN ID Solid State Meter Module Quick Start Guide The LAN ID is a unique identifier for each Landis+Gyr endpoint. Landis+Gyr provides the LAN address. You cannot change the LAN ID of a radio. Features and Functions Endpoint Registration The endpoint is automatically registered with the host system. No special tools are needed during installation. Admin packets are sent once each hour at a random time during the hour and play a crucial role in the automatic discovery of a meter by the Landis+Gyr system. They tell what kind of meter the module interfaces with, and other characteristics, such as the scaling constant, number of dials, and the firmware version. Admin packets include:
Meter ID Protocol ID Scaling Constant Number of dials Table 2. Admin Packet Information Identifies the customer Identifies the type of meter. Tells how to convert meter readings into real units such as kWh Also referred to as displayed digits. Maximum Sensor Change Rate Tells how much the meter reading can change in a certain period of time. Firmware Version Specifies the firmware revision number. Current Cumulative Reading from the meter Communication and Retrieving Data A microprocessor on the communications module counts pulses, records usage over multiple intervals, and transmits the information to the head end system. Several different packet types are sent.The most frequently sent packet contains the current rotational count and historical interval data that is useful for load profiling and time-of-use metering. Another less frequently sent (Admin) packet contains the current cumulative rotation count, useful for basic automatic meter reading applications. An Admin packet is sent once hourly and contains the information listed in Table 2. Power Outage/Restoration The Solid State Meter Module determines when a meter power failure has occurred. The communication module saves critical endpoint data to non-volatile memory, creates and sends a power fail message to the host system that includes the LAN ID. When power is restored, the communication module sends a Power Up message to the host system. This message includes the following information:

Compliance FCC Class B This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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 antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Consult Landis+Gyr or an experienced radio technician for help. U WARNING: Changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by Landis+Gyr could void the users authority to operate the equipment. RF Exposure In accordance with FCC requirements of human exposure to radio frequency fields, the radiating element shall be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20 centimeters will be maintained. Host FCC Label Requirement In the final installation, the following information must be visible:
