Table 2-8 “Busting” the Endpoint

If the register has been correctly connected to the endpoint, the meter will be

read successfully, and the meter reading will be transmitted to the network 10

times. Thus, following a successful installation of the endpoint, busting the

endpoint will result in 10 blinks of the LED where each blink is associated by an

audible beep. The unit is now activated.

NOTE: In the busting sequence described

above, the meter is read just once prior to

transmission of the first RF packet. The same

meter reading is transmitted 10 times.

If the register has not been correctly connected to the endpoint, the meter will

not be read successfully upon being busted. In this case, the endpoint will not

activate upon closure of the reed switch, and thus will not transmit. Therefore,

until the RF Buster indicates that the unit has been activated, the technician

must assume that the endpoint has not been correctly installed.
