Mobile and Handheld Mode. The module transmits a medium-powered RF message

every 15 seconds. In Mobile and Handheld Mode, the expected battery life is 20 years.

–

(Optional) Hard-to-Read Mode. The module transmits a high-powered RF message

every 30 seconds. In Hard-to-Read Mode, the expected battery life decreases to 15

years in this mode. The Hard-to-Read Mobile Mode should only be used for

exceptionally hard to read applications (such as meters installed in sub-basements).

Leak Detection and Reverse Flow Detection. Cellular 500Ws feature robust algorithms

that provide leak and reverse flow detection.

■

(Optional) Leak Sensor

–

The optional Leak Sensor analyzes water flow sound patterns to detect water leaks.

Leak sensor analysis data is uploaded to the mlogonline Network Leak Monitoring

online portal. Systems with optional Leak Sensor devices access leak information

through their utility-specific, secure mlogonline portal. For more information, see the

mlogonline Network Leak Monitoring System User Guide.

(Optional) Telemetry devices

–

An optional remote water disconnect valve provides water utilities with a non-intrusive

means of managing customer disconnects and reconnects that traditionally required

on-site visits. The remotely-controlled disconnect valve helps lower the utility's costs

by eliminating routine move-in/move-out service calls. For more information, see

Remote Disconnect Valve Installation on page 33.

Note: Remote water disconnect operation requires a module with enhanced

security enabled. To learn more about enabling enhanced security, see the Field

Deployment Manager (FDM)Tools Mobile Application Guide.
