Route File Generation
Route file generation is performed on the Host software, as illus-
trated in Figure 4.1.
Figure 4.1 Host File Transfer to RoadMAPS
Through the host software user interface, users import route files
from the CIS/Billing system into the Host database. In addition to
importing files, the host software permits manual database entry
to permit an operator to type or edit route information.
The host software processes route information according to the
utility billing cycle and generates route files for meter reading.
The last step is to transfer those files to RoadMAPS by copying the
files onto PC memory cards. For information on Host software
processing, see the
RouteMAPS Software User’s Manual
or
EZ

.
Off-site meter reading
The meter reader inserts the PC memory card and sets up the
RoadMAPS Unit in a vehicle. At power-up, the RoadMAPS laptop
computer reads route files from the PC memory card, loads them
into its database, and runs self diagnostics on the RoadMAPS sys-
tem.
