1 Introduction
The Sensus Automation Remote Telemetry Module™ (RTM II) is a cost-effective communication solution
for remote monitoring and control of Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) that control electric distribution
system assets such as reclosers, switches, capacitor banks, breakers, voltage regulators, and meters.
RTM II devices can be remotely configured, monitored, and controlled through the secure Sensus
AutomationControl™ Web application using any standard PC. The RTM II includes serial connections, a
USB configuration port, and easy profile management through the AutomationControl software. The
RTM II communicates using the Sensus FlexNet® private networks.
The multi-address RTM II communicates with any IED that supports DNP3 or Modbus protocols. Models
with FlexNet radios communicate using packet data over the Sensus FlexNet private networks. The
devices can be installed on any FlexNet system using the latest Automation Network Interface software.
FlexNet models incorporate all of the standard FlexNet system security features.
The devices are ideally suited for Smart Grid distribution automation applications such as reclosers,
capacitor banks, distribution switches, faulted circuit indicators, voltage regulators, distributed
generation, load control, and small substations.
