SPECIFICATIONS

 The kV2c meter with the FlexNet module will have a visible label containing the fol-

lowing information:

 Contains Model: FLEXKV2C

 Contains FCC ID: SDBFLEXKV2C

 Contains IC: 2220A-FLEXKV2C FlexNet SmartPoint Module for Aclara kV2c Quick Guide The Sensus FlexNet SmartPoint module provides wireless communication capability to electric utility meters. The Aclara kV2c commercial and industrial meter provides reliable and accurate revenue metering combined with advanced real-time instrumentation, true power quality monitoring and real cost of service measurements. Technical Overview The FlexNet communications network offers a simple, reliable, and secure system that is economical for mass meter deployments, strategic deployments, and rural applications while providing a multi-application solution for all AMI end points. The FlexNet network enhances the kV2c meter by providing AMI capability. The FlexNet SmartPoint module is a printed circuit board which provides wireless communication capability to the Aclara kV2c electric meter. The SmartPoint module interrogates the meter registers on a programmable interval from five minutes to daily readings. The SmartPoint module then transmits the meter consumption and status information at regular intervals. The module mounts into the existing kV2c meter and acts as a third party AMR board. It is designed to mount mechanically into the meter with no additional mechanical modification required. The module communicates via the FlexNet fixed wireless telemetry network to provide electric meter readings and diagnostic data from the meter to the utility provider via radio. The module contains both a receiver and transmitter to allow for two-way communications over the FlexNet network. QUICK GUIDEEQG-10010-01 FlexNet SmartPoint Module for Aclara kV2c Warnings & Hazards Warning Sensus devices are for professional installation only. They are to be serviced by professional personnel only. This product is NOT for consumer installation or servicing. Warning The antenna used for this transmitter must not be co-

located in conjunction with any other antenna or trans-

mitter. AT TENTION Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursu-

ant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are de-

signed 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 encour-

aged 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 form that to which the receiver is connected Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV tech-

nician for help Warning If you are not sure of the rated power of your radio, contact your Sensus representative or dealer and supply the product model number found on the product label. If you cannot determine the rated power out, then assure 3-feet separation from the body to the device. Warning TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PER-

SONNEL. RADIATION HAZARD In order to satisfy the FCC RF exposure limit for transmit-

ting devices, a separation distance of 20cm (7.9 inches) or more should be maintained while operating the Sensus FLEXKV2C. To ensure compliance, operation at closer than this distance is not recommended. This mini-

mum safe distance is required between personnel and the antenna of this device. RADIATION HAZARD In order to satisfy the ISED RF exposure limit for trans-

mitting devices, a separation distance of 20cm (7.9 inches) or more should be maintained while operating the Sensus FLEXKV2C. To ensure compliance, operation at closer than this distance is not recommended. This minimum safe distance is required between personnel and the antenna of this device. Afin de satisfaire la limite dexposition RF pour les ap-

pareils de transmission, une distance de sparation de 20cm (7.9 pouces) ou plus doit tre maintenu pendant le fonctionnement du Sensus FLEXKV2C. Pour assurer la conformit, un fonctionnement distance infrieure celle est pas recommande. Cette distance minimale de scurit est ncessaire entre le personnel et lantenne de cet appareil. ATTENTION Any modifications made to this device that are not ap-

proved by Sensus may void the authority granted to the user by the FCC to operate equipment. ATTENTION This device complies with Industry Canada license-

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 interfer-

ence, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR dIndustrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. Lexploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) lappareil ne doit pas produire de brouil-

lage, et (2) lutilisateur de lappareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible den compromettre le fonctionnement.

ATTENTION This radio transmitter the Sensus FLEXKV2C has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the anten-

na types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device. Le prsent metteur radio (Sensus FLEXKV2C) a t ap-

prouv par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types dantenne numrs ci-dessous et ayant un gain admissible maximal et limpdance requise pour chaque type dantenne. Les types dantenne non inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est suprieur au gain maximal indiqu, sont strictement interdits pour lexploitation de lmetteur.

 Dipole with a -0.47dBi gain ATTENTION Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maxi-

mum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by In-

dustry 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 communication. Conformment la rglementation dIndustrie Canada, le prsent metteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne dun type et dun gain maximal (ou infrieur) approuv pour lmetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de rduire les risques de brouillage radiolectrique lintention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type dantenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonne quivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dpasse pas lintensit ncessaire ltablissement dune communication satis-
