ORION® Water Endpoints
Mobile M Endpoint
Product Data Sheet
DESCRIPTION
The ORION® Mobile M endpoint is a two-way water endpoint for
mobile applications.
In addition to providing the current and daily reading, the
endpoint two-way functionality allows users to capture data
profile information wirelessly, without having to directly access the
endpoint, during the normal reading process.
The ORION Mobile M endpoint is a member of the time-tested
ORION family of products from Badger Meter, designed for
maximum flexibility. Since 2002, the ORION product family has
been providing comprehensive Advanced Metering Analytics
(AMA) for interval meter reading and data capture using both
one-way and two-way communications.
FUNCTIONALITY
Operation: The endpoint continuously monitors the encoder
circuit. At predetermined intervals, the endpoint broadcasts the
totalized reading value along with other meter data to the mobile
collection devices.
Activation: The endpoints offer a Smart Activation feature. All
ORION endpoints are shipped in an inactive, non-transmitting
state. After the endpoint is installed, it begins broadcasting
data when the encoder senses the first usage of water. No field
programming or tools are required to activate the endpoint.
Broadcast Mode: Once activated, the endpoints begin
transmitting. After installation, using the endpoint two-way
communication, an endpoint transmits its meter data every six
seconds.
Data Profiling: The endpoints store up to 90 days of hourly
historical interval meter data within nonvolatile memory.
Output Message: The endpoint broadcasts its unique serial
number, current meter reading, daily reading and applicable status
indicators for mobile reading collection.
APPLICATION
Configurations: Available in integral, remote or endpoint-only
configurations, the endpoint can be deployed in indoor,
outdoor and pit applications. The endpoint electronics and
battery assembly are fully encapsulated in epoxy for
environmental integrity.
Meter Compatibility: When attached to a Badger Meter encoder,
the endpoint is compatible with all current Badger Meter
Recordall® Disc, Turbo Series, Compound Series, Combo Series and
Fire Service meters and assemblies, and with E-Series® Ultrasonic
and M-Series® Electromagnetic flow meters.
Encoder Compatibility: The endpoint is suitable for use with all
Badger Meter encoders as well as the following Badger Meter
approved three-wire encoder registers that have a manufacture
date of 2000 or newer, are programmed into the AMR/AMI
three-wire output mode and have three-wires connected:
Elster C700 Digital, InVISION and ScanCoder® encoders and evoQ4
meter (encoder output); Hersey® Translator; Master Meter® Octave®
Ultrasonic meter encoder output; Metron-Farnier Hawkeye; Mueller
Systems 420 Solid State Register (SSR) LCD; Neptune® ProRead,
E-Coder® and ARB-V®; and Sensus® Electronic Register encoder
(ECR) and ICE.
