Aclara Integrated Meter
The Aclara integrated meter functions as the hub of the HAN. It receives TWACS
communication from the Master Station and relays this to the IHD and
programmable thermostat. Similarly, it receives communication from the IHD and
the programmable thermostat, and transfers this information back to the Master
Station. The Aclara integrated meter consists of a UMT-R-FX transponder and a
ZigBee module integrated with an L+G FOCUS meter.
