The Connect USB item initiates the connection between the
Personal Meter Reader
™
software and your
RAVEn
™. The Disconnect USB item terminates the connection
between the
Personal Meter Reader
™ software and your
RAVEn
™. These actions do
not affect the connection between your
RAVEn
™ and the smart meter.
The Restart item will cause the firmware on the
RAVEn
™ to restart, but retain its
registration with the smart meter.
The Hard Reset item will cause the
RAVEn
™ to reset, erasing all existing data and
configurations, and cause it to be decommissioned. It will then not be able to
immediately rejoin the smart meter. The smart meter will not allow the
RAVEn
™ to join
until the meter has also decommissioned the
RAVEn
™, and then reregistered the
RAVEn
™ for joining.

The About item displays information about this version of the

software.
