Elster American and Itron Commercial Meter Installation
To program the commercial ERT module
1. Program the index drive rate into the 100G series gas ERT module using the endpoint programming
device.
2. For all programming and Check Endpoint operations, hold the handheld as close to vertical as possible.
For best success, keep the handheld programmer within 6 feet of the target ERT module.
3. Verify you have the correct programming mode (Fixed Network Mode, Mobile High Power Mode,
Mobile/Handheld Mode, or Hard to Read Mobile/Handheld Mode) for your application. Programming
parameters are based on the configuration file loaded into the endpoint programming device.
4. During programming, the 100G is set to the nearest 100 cubic feet; the last two digits (tens and units) are
programmed as zeros (0). After programming is complete, the ERT module assembly will read to the
nearest cubic foot.
Attaching the Commercial 100G Gas ERT Module Assembly on
the Commercial Meter
After you program the commercial gas ERT module, attach it to the commercial meter.
To attach the commercial gas ERT module to the meter
1. Turn the commercial gas ERT module over and place the four mounting screw bushings into the screw
holes on the module.
Warning Handle the 100G carefully so the metal passive radiator antenna is not damaged.
2. Push the screw bushings all the way into the mounting screw holes to secure the screw bushings in the
mounting screw hole and prevent them from falling out when the module is turned to install on the meter.
3. Turn the ERT module on its side and align the module's wriggler with the meter's drive dog.
