Splice Kit on page 40).
Using an Extension Cable
Order the 25-foot inline connector extension cable assembly (CFG-0151-401) to extend the 100W with the
inline connector.
Initializing the 100W
Caution To obtain an immediate reading, initialize the 100W with an approved handheld
computer. Failure to initialize the ERT module may delay the initial reading up to one hour.
• To initialize the 100W immediately, use one of the following handheld computers running Field
Deployment Manager (FDM) version 1.0 or later.
• FC200SR handheld computer (Itron part number FC2-0005-004 or FC2-0006-004)
• FC300 with SRead
• For normal activation, connect the 100W to the water meter register. The ERT module polls for a register
every hour. The 100W automatically activates after the ERT module detects a register.
