1 Overview
The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines allowing an integrator to design a host
product that uses the TRN-2012 MCM (Meter Communications Module) or the TRN-2113 MCM
and ensures that the system meets all of its technical objectives and requirements.
1.1 On-Ramp Wireless Total Reach Network
The On-Ramp Wireless Total Reach Network is comprised of host modules, such as TRN-
2012/TRN-2113 modules equipped with microNodes, and Access Points (APs). The network
operates in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz ISM band. The TRN-2012 and TRN-2113 circuit boards are
designed to easily integrate into electric meters, through standard interfaces, enabling robust
wireless communication with one or more APs interfaced with a service provider’s local or wide
area network.
