Reading Missed Accounts
The procedure for reading missed accounts is similar to the
procedure used on the initial reading. To assist in reading missed
accounts, you need to view route and account details to locate the
exact starting point for reading. It is also helpful to drive slower
and get as close as possible to the missed meters to improve
chances of receiving read data.
To identify a missed meter, select a route from the Route Selection
screen that shows a read status of less than 100% in the progress
bar at the top of the screen. Once selected, missed accounts from
that route are shown on the Missed Reads screen.
If necessary, use the MIU Detail button for the missed account
and determine if there are any problems with the account that
prevent a successful reading. Note the address of any accounts for
subsequent reading and reporting.
To read a missed meter, drive to the first unread account address
on the route. Read the remaining accounts on the route.
If you do not succeed in reading an account after a second
attempt, the account remains with a status of “unread.” The utility
can initiate follow-up action to investigate the source of the
reading problem.
Pausing and Restarting Meter Reading
Follow this procedure to stop and then restart data collection
using the MRX920 unit. This is useful if you want to review the
route reading status of a route or individual account or if you need
to look up the starting address for a route to be read.

Route button.
