Sensus RadioRead
Model 510R2 – Non Pit Unit
2. Once in Programmer Mode, pictured below, use the Up/Down
arrows until ENABLE is displayed.
3. Place the TouchReader+ Sensor on the Programming port of the
radio and press the Read button. This will send a message to
the radio to start the activation process. Keep TouchReader+ in
place until complete – messages will appear on the screen.
4. Once complete, the TouchReader+ will beep once upon suc-
cess and display the radio’s status.
If unsuccessful, the radio will remain in an idle state and the
TouchReader+ will beep twice and display the radio’s status.
TouchReader
1. The TouchReader will beep once indicating that the radio
acknowledged the TouchRead and is now detecting the type of
register connection.
2. After waiting approximately 3 seconds, perform another
TouchRead, if a read error occurs, the radio is still in detect
mode. Repeat this step again in 3 more seconds if read error
occurs.
3. If port detection is successful, the reading unit should provide
either a TouchRead reading (Sensus only) or a single beep to
indicate that the encoder is connected.
Note: TouchRead is not supported on Neptune registers.
AutoGun (ID type set to Factory ID – see AutoGun manual for
instructions)
1. The AutoGun will beep and display the ID with a “0” at the end.
This indicates that the radio acknowledged that TouchRead is
in inactive/idle mode "0". This will start the detecting process.
2. After waiting approximately 3 seconds, perform another
TouchRead, if a read error occurs, the radio is still in detect
mode. Repeat this step again in 3 more seconds.
3. If successful detection, the AutoGun will display either a
TouchRead reading (Sensus only) or
• ID: 1 – which means a TouchRead was attempted on an
unsupported meter (Neptune).
• ID: 2 – which means that the port was configured for a meter
type that supports TouchRead (Sensus only) but there was no
response from the meter.
4. If unsuccessful detection, the TouchRead will start the activation
process again. The ID on the AutoGun will display “0” similar to
the step 1 above.
Note: Once the radio is activated and it detects the type of register con-
nection, the only way to change its configuration to the correct
type of register connection is to deactivate the radio using a pro-
gramming tool and then re-activate the radio or use a program-
ming tool to reprogram the port manually.
TouchReader+
1. If the TouchReader+ is not in Programmer Mode, press both Up
and Down arrow simultaneously to cycle through the different
modes.
2. Once in Programmer Mode, pictured below, use the Up/Down
arrows until Deact is displayed.
3. Place the TouchReader+ Sensor on the Programming port of the
radio and press the Read button. This will send a message to the
radio to start the deactivation process. Keep TouchReader+ in
place until complete – messages will appear on the screen.
4. Once complete, the TouchReader+ will beep once upon success
and display the radio’s status.
If unsuccessful, the radio will remain in an active state and the
TouchReader+ will beep twice and display the radio’s status.
