The EN1501 includes a replaceable battery; the EN1501-XL includes a long-life battery that is not replaceable.1.1 Inovonics Wireless Contact InformationIf you have any problems with this procedure, contact Inovonics Wireless technical services:• E-mail: support@inovonics.com• Phone: (800) 782-2709; (303) 939-93361.2 EN1501/EN1501-XL Components Figure 1 EN1501/EN1501-XL Components2 Installation and Startup2.1 Connect Transmitter to MeterConnect the transmitter to the meter as follows:1. Open the housing by pressing down on the base tab near the wiring thru-hole while lifting away the cover. 2. Fully insert stripped wires into the removable header terminal.3. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws that secure wires to the removable header terminal.4. Attach removable header terminal (if removed) to the transmitter board as shown.Note: If connecting to a meter that has polarity to its pulse output, the negative (–) should be connected to the outside terminal, closest to the corner of the board. Figure 2 Connect the Transmitter to the Meter2.2 Select Frequency BandIf you are using either transmitter anywhere except North America, you will need to select the frequency band for your geographic area. If you are using the transmitter in North America, there is no need to select the frequency band. All transmitters are set for North America by default.Select Frequency Band on the Transmitter1. Place the selection jumper included in the accessory pack on the appropriate frequency band selection pins (Figure 1).• Leave the jumper off the pins to select 902-928 MHz for North America.• Place the jumper on the left two pins to select 921-928 MHz for New Zealand.• Place the jumper on the right two pins to select 915-928 MHz for Australia.2.3 Mount the Transmitter1. Use the double-sided tape to mount the transmitter to a clean wall.2. If installing the EN1501, the transmitter can be secured a wall with the mounting screw and anchor. Remove the battery to access the mounting screw hole; press the reset button after replacing the battery.Note: Ensure cabling enters the housing through the access wiring thru-hole, and replace the housing (Figure 2).

Insert the new battery, making sure it is aligned correctly.4. Press the reset button.Note: EN1501 transmitters retain programming data in non-volatile memory. They do not require reprogramming after loss of power. Install new battery and press the transmitter reset button to re-initialize the transmitter and restore programming. Its count will go to zero and the initial Meter Read count will be updated in the DCC.4 SpecificationsDimensions: 3.57" x 1.70" x 0.85"Operating environment: -20°- 60°C (-4°- 140°F), 90% relative humidity, non-condensingTypical battery life: EN1501: 5 years at 70 to 90°F (20 to 30°C). Higher temperatures reduce battery life. EN1501-XL: calculated battery life of 20 years at 70 to 90°F (20 to 30°C). Higher temperatures reduce battery life.EN1501 Battery (BAT604): 3.0V lithium (DL123A) The battery is always supervised.5 Television and Radio InterferenceThis equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
