The S4e meter is connected directly to line potential.  Due to the possibility of the potential lines being reversed, points accessible with the cover off may be at line voltage.  LINE POTENTIAL IS PRESENT ON THE INCOMING CONNECTORS ON THE MEASUREMENT BOARD INCLUDING THE BATTERY CONNECTOR.  The connectors have full-length insulators crimped onto each connector, which are shielded by the housing. However, pulling the connector loose will expose the battery terminals, which may be at line potential.  The option board is connected directly to the main board and may be at a high potential.  A Mylar shield prevents touching the option board.  Removing the Mylar shield exposes line voltage.  The above warning label affixed to the meter frame identifies hazards in the meter.  Failure to follow all instructions may result in an unsafe product that could cause injury or death CAUTION:  DO NOT OPERATE METER WITHOUT ANTENNA ATTACHED.   OPERATION WITHOUT ANTENNA MAY CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE  TO THE UTILINET MODULE.

The S4e is available with several register types, providing the right functionality for any metering application.  The S4e UtiliNet can be ordered with the following register configurations:  AX    Active energy, Demand or TOU AXR 32K  Active energy, with a 32K byte load profile recorder AXR 128K  Active energy, with a 128K byte load profile recorder RX    Active and reactive measurement, Demand or TOU RXR 32K  Active and reactive measurement with 32K byte load profile recorder RXR 128K  Active and reactive measurement with 128K byte load profile recorder  An optional input/output board provides up to 2, form C, solid-state relays and up to one external inputs for recording pulses from a remote source.  The 4 relay option board is not available with the S4e UtiliNet meter.  One external input can also be used for real-time rate changes or self-read actuation.  The board can be easily added in the field without the need for special tools or soldering. For additional information on the S4e meter, consult the S4/S4e Solid State Meter Instruction/Technical Manual. UtiliNet Module Overview The S4e meter is modular in its design. The UtiliNet module occupies the communications board slot in an S4e meter.     Bulletin Number: 20031201 Rev A  S4e-UtiliNet User Manual  Page 6 of 13
Landis+Gyr Configuration of the UtiliNet Module The S4e UtiliNet meter is programmed using 1132Prog/1132Com. The UtiliNet module is factory programmed with a LAN Address. Meter Setup The Utilinet module relies on certain inputs from relay 4 for its operation.  As a result there are a few minimum programming requirements for the S4 (using 1132Prog).   The load control relay activates the relay upon power up.  This relay triggers the UtiliNet module to power up.  If the meter is not programmed as shown below the UtiliNet module will not operate as expected.  A special tool, Utilinet Radio Tool, was developed to query and reboot the UtiliNet module.  Relays: Set Relay 4 to Load Control (“LC”), “Used” in Normal Mode and Normal Off State to “Closed”.        Bulletin Number: 20031201 Rev A  S4e-UtiliNet User Manual  Page 7 of 13

Using 1132Com perform a View Data and check that meter device type detected as AXR or RXR and that the load profile settings are correct.  Use of External Antennas   S4e UtiliNet equipped meters are manufactured with an internal antenna. However, some meter locations have less than optimal RF reception.  Many meter services are ungrounded. Examples of these types of services include single-phase form 2S, as well as floating 3-wire delta services, 12S and 45S/5S. To improve the reliability and safety of these floating services, Landis+Gyr has developed an interface for remotely mounted antennas that allows RF reception under these service conditions.  The High Voltage antenna coupling system protects UtiliNet components from transients reaching up to 7,000 volts.  The Landis+Gyr External Antenna Isolation Solution needs to be installed in the S4e meter in accordance with Landis+Gyr Specifications.  Contact the factory for more information regarding ordering and installing approved external antenna solutions.  See the diagram on the next page.
