Sensus  In-Line Zigbee Module – User Manual 3  1.0  Introduction This document details the installation and usage of the “Sensus In-Line Zigbee Module”.   At present the module is designed to work in the Sensus iConA and iConAS electric meters although in future in may work with other electric meter designs. The module is designed to sit between the sensor board and the display board within the electric meter.  When a Zigbee module is not installed a ribbon cable connects the sensor and display.   In the case when the module is installed the module is connected between the sensor and display, to give the electric meter Zigbee functionality.
Sensus  In-Line Zigbee Module – User Manual 4  2.0  Installation of the module within an electric meter First remove the meter outer cover.   Carefully remove the meter inner cover. Disconnect the ribbon cable from the sensor pcb. Insert the Zigbee board into the connector that the display ribbon has been disconnected from. Insert the free end of the ribbon cable into the connector on the Zigbee module as shown in Figure 1. Add the jumper (short) to position J202 on the sensor board, as shown in Figure 2.

NOTE:  This 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.  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 instruction, may 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 •  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. •  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Sensus  In-Line Zigbee Module – User Manual 8 Appendix B  RF Energy Health HazardB  RF Energy Health HazardB  RF Energy Health HazardB  RF Energy Health Hazard     Please pay attention to the following warnings:    When servicing equipment and selecting a location for the In-Line ZigbeeModule, it is important to note that a minimum distance of 20 cm (7.9 inches) is required between personnel and ZigBee Antenna to comply with a radio-frequency exposure limit of 1.0mW/cm2.  Professional installation required.  The radio equipment described in this guide uses radio frequency transmitters.  Although the power level is low, the concentrated energy from a directional antenna may pose a health hazard. The ZigBee Module integrated antenna is rated at a maximum of 0dBi.
Sensus  In-Line Zigbee Module – User Manual 9  Appendix C  Industry Canada Specific Statements: The term “IC:” before the radio certification number only signifies that industry Canada technical specifications were met. This Class B apparatus meets all the requirements of the Canadian Interference Causing Equipment  Regulations.    Operation  is  subject  to  the  following  two  conditions:  (1)  the device  may  not  cause  harmful  interference,  and  (2)  this  device  must  accept  any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.  Cet  appareil  numérique  de  la  classe  B  répond  à  toutes  les  exigences  de  l’interférence canadienne  causant  des  règlements  d’équipment.  L’opération  est  sujette  aux  deux conditions suivantes: (1) ce dispositif peut ne pas causer l'interférences nocive, et (2) ce dispositif  doit accepter n’importe quelle interférence reçue, y compris  l’interférence qui peut causer l’opération peu désirée.
