Datalogging
The M2 radio logs data as an
enhanced data function.
The basic data functions of the M2
radio – leak detection, backflow,
high usage – are all detectable
through the normal remote AMR
operations (via the reading system).
The datalogging function offers a
first-hand customer-service tool to
examine the consumption pattern of
a specific meter. For instance, if a
customer has been flagged as
having a possible leak, the water
utility can use the FPDA, H2 or G2
to download the meter/radio’s data
and immediately discuss the site’s
usage data.
The FPDA, H2 and g2 will allow the
user to view the data in a time
bucket format (2, 4, 6, 12 or 24 hr)
consumption bar chart format or in a
flowrate line graph (for pulse-based
systems only)
