Notes toTariff Control:
The Tariff Control menu is used for defining Tariff A only.
Tariff B is always the opposite of Tariff A.
Daily Cycle Start Time defines the start of normal day time.
Weekly Cycle Start Day defines the first day of the weekend (from 00:00). Weekly Cycle End Day defines
the first day of the week (at 00:00).
[e.g. for a normal weekend (Saturday and Sunday only) set Weekly Cycle Start Day = Saturday and set
Weekly Cycle End Day = Monday]
To use a Yearly Cycle set Weekly Cycle Start Day = None and set Weekly Cycle End Day = None.
Yearly Cycle Start Date defines the day and month of the start of summer. Yearly Cycle End Date defines
the day and month of the start of winter.

SCANREADER OPTION INTERFACE SETTINGS
The ScanReader option interface is factory set and
normally requires no changes. There is no user
interface menu, but changes can be made using
the method described in Changing Selections on
page 4. The notes below define the permitted data
entry values for the various parameters. The
ScanReader options are at security access level 4.
325 Serial Number 4
10 character string. Allowed characters are the
digits 0 to 9 and alphabetics a to z.
Upper case will be transmitted as lower case.
Default setting is 0000000000
This is the serial number that is reported via the
ScanReader interface.
If this is set to 0000000000 the rightmost 9 digits
of the sensor ID number prefixed with a 7 will be
used as the ScanReader serial number.
Invalid characters will be ignored.
326 Adapter Code 4
0 = ScanCoder
1 = AquaMaster
Default setting is 0
Selects the error code capability of the interface.
'0' will provide no error code information.
'1' will provide extended error code information to
enabled Readers.
327 Totaliser Source and Range 4
0 = Fwd x1
1 = Rev x1
2 = Net x1
3 = Fwd x10
4 = Rev x10
5 = Net x10
6 = Fwd x100
7 = Rev x100
8 = Net x100
Default setting is 0
Selects the Totaliser source and resolution range
for the Reader value field. Negative totals will be
reported as 0.
ScanReader interface only has 6 digits defined for
Totaliser value. Range setting defines how the 6
digits are used. For example, for range x100, a
total of 12345678 would be conveyed to the
Reader as 123456.
