SETTING WHAT IT DOES HOW YOU MIGHT USE
IT
Advance on High
/ Low
When a high or low reading is
encountered in an interrogated
reading and this setting is chosen,
the ReadAll will advance the
display to the next account. If not
chosen, the ReadAll will continue to
display the current meter being
read.
If you wish to investigate a
high or low reading, leave a
brochure with the customer,
or perform some other
function on a high or low
reading, clear this setting and
choose the next one. You
will be alerted to the high and
low meters by the audio tones
and the display.
Beep on High /
Low
When a high or low reading is
encountered for a meter that is
interrogated and this setting is
chosen, the ReadAll will sound the
high and low audio signals. If not
chosen, the ReadAll will sound the
successful read audio tone.
If you wish to investigate a
high or low reading, leave a
brochure to the customer, or
perform some other function
on a high or low reading,
choose this setting and clear
the previous one. You will be
alerted to the high and low
meters by the audio tones and
the display.
Show High and
Low
This setting and the previous one
control the amount of information
available to the meter reader. When
this setting is chosen, the high and
low audit values are displayed when
the View High / Low button is
pressed.
To insure accuracy of the
meter readings, some utilities
will choose to clear this
setting. Other utilities will
choose this setting so that if
an investigation on the
operation of the meter is
needed, this information is
available. You need to
determine which option is
right for you.
Find on Wrong This setting pertains only to touch
meter reading (FUTURE
RELEASE). The gathered meter
reading information contains the
module ID number. If the number
is different than the ID number for
the current meter on the read screen,
the ReadAll will search for the
correct meter if this setting is
chosen. If the setting is not chosen,
the ReadAll will alert you to the fact
that the reading indicates that the
wrong meter is being read.
This setting is very handy for
touch meter reading because
it allows you to read meters
out of the normal reading
sequence. If you need to
resequence the route, using
this setting you can read the
route in the new reading
sequence order with ease.
