• Authentication. Authentication is the process of confirming that an artifact is genuine or
valid. Authentication in the OpenWay Riva Gas Remote Disconnect is the process of
verifying a request is from a valid source and in its original form.
• Encryption. Encryption is the process of transforming information to make it unreadable
to anyone who does not have a valid security key. There are two types of encryption,
symmetric and asymmetric. Symmetric encryption uses a shared key to decrypt or
encrypt information. Asymmetric encryption uses a private key to encrypt and a public
key to decrypt. Data transmissions over the network are protected using AES-256
encryption.
Transmission mode
The OpenWay Riva Gas Remote Disconnect operates in OpenWay Riva Network Mode and
is optimized for RF interrogations 3 times a day to support a 20-year battery life.
An FCC license is not required to communicate with the OpenWay Riva Gas Remote
Disconnect.
Operational states
The OpenWay Riva Gas Remote Disconnect features three normal operational states.
• Closed. The remote disconnect valve is closed with no gas flowing.
• Armed. The remote disconnect valve receives a command to open. (Gas will not flow
until the valve is manually opened on-site.)
• Open. The OpenWay Riva Gas Remote Disconnect valve is open allowing gas to flow.
