TDC-0838-001 2.4GZ OpenWay Gas Module Installation Guide - Remote Mount 84
Proprietary and Confidential
Installation Overview
Installing the 2.4GZ OpenWay remote mount gas module to an Dattus meter involves five tasks:
1. Programming the meter (reference the Itron Dattus programming guide for more information).
2. Installing any necessary Itron retrofit parts. Itron offers installation kits and brackets for module mounting
options.
3. Mounting the 2.4GZ OpenWay remote mount gas module directly on the meter. If direct-mounting is not
an option for your installation, the 2.4GZ OpenWay remote mount gas module may be mounted on a pipe,
or flat surface (see Mounting the 2.4GZ OpenWay Remote Mount Gas Module on page 8).
4. Connecting the 2.4GZ OpenWay remote mount gas module to the Dattus meter (see Connecting the
2.4GZ OpenWay Remote Mount Gas Module to the Dattus meter on page 87).
5. Programming the 2.4GZ OpenWay Remote Mount Gas Module (see Programming the OpenWay Remote
Mount Gas Module Assembly on page 88).
Installing the 2.4GZ Remote Mount Gas Module to Itron Dattus
Meters
Dattus meters provide an electronic pulse output compatible with the 2.4GZ OpenWay remote mount gas
module. The Dattus meter may be wired to the module using the pulse output cable or the module can be
directly mounted to the meter.
When ordering, customers can have the 2.4GZ OpenWay remote mount gas modules drop shipped to Itron's
Owenton, Kentucky meter factory to have a factory-installed connector attached to the module's bare leads.
The connector directly fits the pulse output on the Dattus meter.
