The bottom row of each screen will display the information that is being transmitted or
received. Please refrain from pressing any buttons during the comms session so as to
not interrupt the transmission. If at any point, Error appears on the screen or Connected
is not seen, there is most likely a communication error either due to a faulty
communication module or a network error. In either case, be sure that the test is being
performed in an area with good signal strength and attempt the communication session
again. See the Troubleshooting section for ways to resolve communication problems.
Fault Logging
In order to simplify maintenance procedures, a fault logging feature is available for use
on the meter. A fault can be logged at the meter and wirelessly transmitted to the
management system thus eliminating the need for a handheld. To use this feature,
scroll through the available options by pressing + or – and press OK to log the desired
fault. Please contact IPS to customize the fault list.
Meter Swap
When changing meter mechanism, use the ‘Meter Swap’ option. This will start the
communication session and reset all usage information. To use this feature, press OK
once the Meter Swap menu is displayed on the screen, and press the – button to
confirm. The meter will exit out of Diagnostic Mode and complete the communication
session in the background.
