RTM Elster AMCO applicative PFS Coronis Systems
6.Radio address description
Each Coronis product has its own radio address in order to achieve bidirectional communications.
A bar code label is applied to each product, indicating the RTM Elster AMCO radio address. This address
may be given in two forms:
 either with direct display of the radio address: 12 digits indicating the hexadecimal radio address
of the module;
 or in the form of a serial number: in this case, the radio address is coded in the first 15 digits of
the serial number; the other digits represent the CRC (algorithm available on request).
To find the radio address in a serial number, proceed as follows:
Serial number indicated on the bar code (without CRC): 16662-06-06291457
The chain of characters is split into 3 sections (as indicated below)
