3. Mounting the remote module. Select the mounting option appropriate for your installation.
Mounting options include:
–
Wall mount on a sheet metal surface
–
Pipe mount using the Itron pipe mount kit CFG-0005-003
–
Custom Eagle Research mounting option using the Eagle research mounting rail (Eagle
Research part number 1010247.
Note: Itron recommends an optional sealant for installations where insect intrusion
may be a problem. For more information, see Optional Sealant Application
Instructions on page1.
4. Programming the remote module. Programming requires an Itron programming device (for
example, an FC300SR). For programming information, see Programming on page 21.
Remote module configuration with the meter is dependent on your system application. See the
Eagle Research meter product documentation for the Eagle Research Field Manager database
configuration information.
This mounting information describes installation for two remote modules—one for corrected
reads and one for uncorrected reads. Installation is the same for both configurations (corrected
or uncorrected). Eagle Research meter outputs are optically isolated from the meter control
board and from each other. The volume corrector software configuration controls the port
operation. Follow the Eagle Research documentation and these Itron instructions to ensure the
correct compatibility and installation.
Eagle Research Product Mounting Instructions
Note: These instructions show the Eagle Research MPplus volume corrector. Installation is
the same for the XARTU-1 corrector.
1. Mount a remote module on each end of the mounting rail using the mounting screws supplied with the
modules.
Note: The notch in the mounting rail is the front bottom of the rail. The modules mount
to the back of the mounting rail.
