Installing the Cellular 500W Remote Module
Warning! Internal circuit card components may be sensitive to electrostatic
discharge. Be careful not to touch any part of the meter body, register housing, or Riva
module prior to discharging any static buildup on your person. To discharge
electrostatic buildup, touch a grounded metal object such as the metal water pipe or
an earth-grounded metal structure.
Install the Cellular 500W remote modules using one of the following mounting options:
OpenWay Riva remote Cellular 500W module mounting options
Pipe mount The Cellular 500W remote module mounts to a pipe
near the meter (see Pipe Mount Installation on page
25). This option requires the remote mount kit and the
appropriate pipe mount kit.
Remote mount The Cellular 500W remote module mounts to a flat
surface and connects to the meter register with a cable
up to 300 feet (see Remote Mount Installation on page
29). This option requires the remote mount kit.
Direct mount to the meter register The Cellular 500W remote module mounts directly to a
meter register designed for Cellular 500W remote
module direct mounting. This installation does not
require a mounting kit (see Direct-mounting to the
Meter Register on page 31).
Warning! While Itron modules are designed to withstand a drop, dropping the
module can damage sensitive electronic components and void the product warranty.
