Absolute Encoding Register Meters

water and gas encoders. Encoder meters
utilize a 3 wire connection to the
C3IWireless Gateway. There are two
available input ports for the encoders. The
terminals are labeled R, G, and B and they
are simply wired to the corresponding
are simply wired to the corresponding
terminals on the encoder meter head.
•
The register reading must be assigned to
one of the 4 input channels on the
C3IWireless Gateway. The C3IConfig PDA
is used to make these assignments.
•
Since absolute encoders provide a direct
register reading to the C3IWireless
Gateway, no calibration is required. We
recommend the use of these meters
whenever possible.
•
Note: Not all digits are always
transmitted in the encoder protocol.
Depending on register programming the
appropriate multiplier must be used in
the software.
