Additionally, you should already have route information and the required number of endpoints.• Verify that you are at the correct site, specified on the handheld computer or work order.• Verify that the site is safe for you and your equipment.• Notify the customer of your presence. Tell the customer that you must have access to the water meter. If necessary, have the customer sign the work order.• When installing meters, follow any guidelines issued by your company in addition to those given in this guide.• Never perform an installation during a lightning storm or under excessively wet conditions.Site RequirementsThe site must comply with the following criteria:• There is no chance that another object will be set over the antenna.• Some instances may require additional cable. • Maximum cable length is always 200 feet.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the Instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. • Consult Cellnet or an experienced radio technician for help.RF Exposure In accordance with FCC requirements of human exposure to radio frequency fields, the radiating element shall be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20 centimeters will be maintained. Industry CanadaThis Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference Causing Equipment Regulations. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Cet appareillage numérique de la classe B répond à toutes les exigences de l'interférence canadienne causant des règlements d'équipement. L'opération est sujette aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) ce dispositif peut ne pas causer l'interférence nocive, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter n'importe quelle interférence reçue, y compris l'interférence qui peut causer l'opération peu désirée.Changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by CellnetTechnology, Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

If there is an existing touchpad or remote, then put the new remote in that location. It is preferred to mount the CWE outdoors, to a wall facing the nearest concentrator. MOUNTING THE CWEMounting techniques vary widely, depending on the physical characteristics of the customer site. The mounting technique used is left to the installer’s best judgement and experience.IDENTIFYING THE REGISTER FOR INSTALLATIONRegister connecting instructions listed by register type:• If the register has screw terminals, proceed to "Connecting a Neptune Auto or Sensus Encoder Register with Screw Terminals" on page 2-3

Reprogramming a ProRead encoder from 2-wire to 3-wireIt may sometimes be necessary to reprogram a ProRead register encoder from 2-wire to 3-wire mode. Accomplish this with a Neptune ProRead field programmer.A basic overview of the steps is as follows:1 Connect to the remote receptacle with the field programmer.2 Interrogate the encoder register to determine its operating mode (2 or 3-wire).3 Reconfigure the encoder register to make it operate in 3-wire model.4 Verify that the reconfiguration was successful by looking at the Field Programmer screen. The OM field should be 3W (see below).Table 2.1 If the register has screw terminals, proceed to "Connecting a Neptune Auto or Sensus Encoder Register with Screw Terminals" on page 2-3.If the register has potted leads, proceed to "Connecting a Badger, Neptune Auto or Sensus Encoder Register with Potted Leads" on page 2-6.Before Reprogramming (2-wire mode)After Reprogramming (3-wire mode)

The CWE tests the connection to the register and transmits a pattern to indicate if the installation is good or bad. The RF Buster detects the transmission pattern, beeps and lights the LED.1 Activate the CWE by passing the RF Buster magnet against the side of the CWE housing as shown.Figure 3.1 CWE Activation Using RF Buster 2 Press and hold the button on the RF Buster. Position the RF Buster less than 6 inches away from the front of the CWE. The RF Buster makes audible beeps and the LED flashes to confirm transmission of an RF packet from the endpoint. 3 If the RF Buster detects 6-10 packets within 1 minute, the installation is good and the endpoint has been activated properly. If the RF Buster detects 3 or fewer packets, it indicates a bad connection between the endpoint and the register, a bad register, a bad endpoint, or an incorrect configuration. If the problem persists, refer to Troubleshooting.4 Attach the cover using the four screws included in the hardware kit.5 Clean the area and remove all disposable materials.RF Buster magnetCaution: If you hold the RF Buster magnet near the side of the CWE for more than 2seconds, it will not transmit the installation test pattern. If you do not hear beeps, hold theRF Buster away from the CWE for 15 seconds to allow it to reset to normal operating mode.Do not use a cell phone or any other RF device while conductingthis test.

What if the RF Buster does not beep when testing the installation?Does the RF Buster beep and light the LED when the switch is initially pressed? if not, the battery in the RF Buster is dead. Replace the RF Buster battery, or use another RF Buster.Be careful not to hold the RF Buster magnet near the CWE magnet sensor on the right of the enclosure for more than 1 second.After activating the magnetic switch on the CWE, hold the RF Buster switch on continuously. Point the LED end of the RF Buster toward the front of the CWE. Hold the RF Buster between 6” and 12” from the front of the CWE. Wait 10 seconds. If the RF Buster does not beep, replace the CWE.What if the RF Buster does not beep more than 6 times when testing the installation?For Neptune registers, if the register is labeled “Pro”, double-check that it is configured for 3-wire mode as instructed on "Reprogramming a ProRead encoder from 2-wire to 3-wire" on page 2-12. Re-check the manufacturer and model of the register that you are installing. Make sure you have used the correct color code for that register. Check the wire between the CWE and the register for cuts, nicks, or broken wires. Repair or replace the cable if necessary.If you are using a Pro-read encoder, make sure it is programmed for 3-wire mode.If you are using a Badger RTR®, double-check the programming of the CWE.If the CWE still does not transmit more than 6 times, replace it.
