Prepayment Menu – Display
In Prepayment mode, the ESME displays a Prepayment menu. This menu allows
the consumer to access various prepayment-related quantities such as meter
balance, emergency credit balance, etc.
Pressing Button B will cycle the display through the various menus, but an
additional menu is available in Prepayment mode, as shown in the table below.
Once in the Prepayment menu, pressing Button A will give the consumer access to
the supplier-defined (as defined in the customer configuration card) list under the
Prepayment menu. The supplier can define and reorder the list items outlined
below during meter configuration (when thresholds, profiles, events and alarms,
etc. are programmed).
