IDM Testing

In order to test the power removal counter, the meter must sense a shaken

condition associated with a power outage.

1 Place the meter in a socket.

2 Apply power to the meter.

3 Remove the meter from the live socket.

4 Replace the meter in the socket.

The meter has incremented the removal tamper counter.

The C1SR uses the power outage (the meter being removed from a live socket) in

conjunction with the meter being shaken simultaneously to increment the power

removal counter.

In order to test the inversion counter, the meter must sense reverse current flow.

1 Place the meter in the meter socket inverted (test LED pointing down).

2 Apply a load to the meter in the forward direction.

The meter has incremented the inversion counter due to reverse energy flow

through the meter.

Retrofitting the C1SR Personality Module

The CENTRON R300 is a one-way radio frequency personality module that

transmits within the unlicensed 910-920 MHz frequency band governed by the US

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 47, Part 15 Radio Frequency Devices, Sub

Part C Paragraph 249 Intentional Radiator. Any device operating within this

unlicensed frequency band must contain an FCC Identification number. Therefore,

the FCC ID Label included in the Retrofit Kits must be placed on the meter as

shown below.
