Installation Considerations
• Complete field installation of a MOSAIC FIREFLY takes five to ten minutes, depending on the
meter location and mounting application.
• Some meters may be located in such a manner that they require the addition of repeaters to reach
the mesh.
• Some areas of your service territory may not have the density to warrant the use of the mesh -
your project manager will alert you to these areas where units can be placed into a drive-by
mode.
• Profile data uses more mesh bandwidth and as such can require the use of additional repeaters
and/or Gateways.
• The system requires ongoing maintenance - make sure to have the proper equipment and training
to maintain the system after your installation contractor leaves.
• Do not attempt to repair or trouble-shoot equipment without the proper equipment and training.
