would be for TouchRead andRadioRead Protocols.

Note
:
The billing programmer can specify the Justify, Fill, and Pad parameters.
Note
:
If the Note Code field is included within the export file format, a Fill character (typically an
asterisk) is often used in the Reading field to denote the Read record from the Note Code
record. This is because a separate record is created by the HHD for a note code left as well
as a reading entered.
Perform a PC communications test with the HHD.
Once you receive AutoRead and your HHD, it is advised that you contact Sensus Metering
Systems Technical Services at 1-800-638-3748 for assistance in conducting the HHD
communications test.
