i
™ register.
The E-CODER)R450
i
is an integrated register containing both the E-CODER
®
and R450™
technologies in one register that collects meter data. It then transmits the data that a meter
reader collects. A Neptune fixed network data collection system receives the data and stores
it to download into the utility billing system for processing.
The E-CODER)R450
i
can be upgraded and configured. At the factory, serial numbers are
programmed into the MIU and each MIU is given two unique serial numbers or
identification numbers. Custom serial numbers are not available.
RF Protocol Error Detection
The RF protocol is comprised of a header, data packet, and an error detection mechanism
that reduces the erroneous data.
Low Battery RF Emissions
The MIU does not produce out-of-band emissions under low battery conditions.
The E-CODER)R450
i
is easy to install and requires a Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) license to operate. For information on obtaining an FCC license, refer to “FCC
Licensing,” in the
