Proprietary and Confidential
Honeywell product features are beyond the scope of this installation guide. Please reference the Honeywell
product information for your particular Mercury Instrument.
Transmission Modes
The 100T-HON telemetry module can be set to transmit in fixed network or mobile and handheld mode.
• Fixed Network Mode. The 100T-HON telemetry module transmits a high-powered network interval
message (NIM) RF message every five minutes. Output power in this mode is 500 milliwatts or +27 dBm.
Interspersed with the high power NIM, the 100T-HON telemetry module transmits a medium power RF
message every 60 seconds at 10 milliwatts or +10 dBm; expected battery life is 20 years.
• Mobile and Handheld Mode. The 100T-HON telemetry module transmits a medium-powered RF
message (Beacon) every 15 seconds. Output power in this mode is 10 milliwatts or +10dBm; expected
battery life is 20 years.
An FCC license is not required to read 100T-HON telemetry modules.
100T-HON Telemetry Module Messaging
The 100T-HON telemetry module messaging is dependent on the transmission mode. 100T-HON telemetry
module messaging supports two bubble-up (BUP) message types and two-way commands.
• Normal BUP
• Alarm BUP. If a critical alarm is detected, the 100T-HON telemetry module enters an alarm state and
transmits the alarm details. An alarm state causes the following events:
• While the alarm window is active, any scheduled normal fixed network or mobile BUP messages are
not transmitted.
• If an acknowledgment is received, the 100T-HON telemetry module returns to its normal BUP
transmission schedule. The normal mobile and fixed network BUP messages will contain the
appropriate tamper flags set in the message.
• If an acknowledgment is not received by the 100T-HON telemetry module after the programmed
number of alarm BUP retries, the device returns to its normal BUP transmission schedule. The 100T-
HON telemetry module transmits normal mobile and fixed network BUP messages with the
appropriate alarm tamper flags set.
Alarm BUP messages contain the following information:
• Alarm ID defining the cause of the alarm
• Endpoint ID
• Utility ID
• Current extended tamper field values (ready to secure mode only)
Two-Way Commands. Fixed network and mobile command messages manage and control the status of the
100T-HON telemetry module.
