 Resolve Readings That Don’t Match
the Displayed Location
During the course of reading a route, you can encounter a
mismatch between the actual ID on a meter and the meter
ID displayed on the AR5000 screen. To resolve this type of
mismatch, you can apply the reading to the current location
or search the route for the ID.
Note This error only occurs with TouchRead or
RadioRead systems. For more information, see
Enter TouchRead Readings on page 2-16 and
Enter RadioRead Readings (AR5002 only) on
page 2-18.
