The WT…16… network nodes are used to receive and handle the data transmitted 
by consumption meters of the Siemeca™ AMR system. They are equipped with a 
gateway that can provide data of up to 2,000 meters for remote readout. 
WTX16.IP can be read via Ethernet while WTX16.GSM and WTX16.MOD contain a 
GSM modem. They are read via the telephone network. 

Use 

The WT…16… network node is a component of the Siemeca™ system. 
It has been designed for use in buildings to create a radio network for receiving and 
storing the data transmitted by the consumption meters installed in the building. Com-
munication between several network nodes is via radio also so that no wiring is re-
quired. All measured values acquired by the consumption meters are continuously 
exchanged within the network, which means that every network node stores the current 
consumption values, the values read out at the end of the month, and the set day val-
ues of all metering devices on the network. Owing to this operating principle, all net-
work data can be read out at any of the nodes, or a Siemeca™ gateway for remote 
data transmission can be used with any of the nodes. 
The field of use of the Siemeca™ AMR system is described in Data Sheet N2870.
